Tangential Hand Brake Assembly for Massey Ferguson 200 & 300 Series Tractors

Description

Every farmer knows the feeling when you set the parking brake and it barely holds—or worse, doesn’t hold at all. When you’re parked on a slope loading the hay wagon or working around the barn with a loader full of feed, you need a hand brake that locks down solid. This tangential-style brake assembly is designed to grip with serious holding power, giving you peace of mind when your tractor needs to stay put.

What You’re Getting

• Tangential brake design provides superior holding force compared to standard hand brakes
• Heavy-duty construction handles the stress of regular farm use and parking on grades
• Direct replacement assembly—no modifications needed for proper installation
• Engineered to match original factory specifications for reliable operation
• Includes all necessary components for complete brake assembly replacement

Built for Real Farm Work

This hand brake fits Massey Ferguson 200 and 300 series tractors—machines that were built when farming meant long days and heavy loads. Whether you’ve got a 230 compact tractor handling chores around the farmstead or a 399 pulling a grain cart at harvest, these tractors see real work every day. The hand brake is what keeps them secure when you’re hooking up implements, loading from the side, or any time you need the machine to stay exactly where you left it.

Made to Last

The tangential brake design uses mechanical advantage to multiply the force you apply, creating stronger holding power with less effort. Farm equipment spends time on slopes, gets parked in all weather, and needs to hold reliably whether the tractor’s warm from working or cold from sitting overnight. This assembly is built to handle those real-world conditions season after season.

Installation Notes

This is a direct replacement for the original hand brake assembly on these Massey Ferguson models. Installation typically involves removing the old assembly from its mounting point and installing the new one with basic hand tools. Make sure to test the brake’s holding power after installation before putting the tractor back to work—a properly adjusted hand brake should hold the tractor securely on any reasonable grade you’d encounter in normal farm operations.
