Would someone please tell me a little about bronze/brass SC brake pedals? I have never heard of such a thing?

Hi Glenn,

I don't know that there's much to tell. It looks like for a period of time in 1944, Case was casting the pedals out of a metal other than cast iron.

Don't know if this had anything to do with wartime manufacturing material shortages, or if it was a deliberate change.

Gene Dotson & Ed Axthelm told me that a lot of the military SI's that were delivered had the bronze parts for sea duty to resist the corrosion from the salt water.

It's just one of those quirks that I find interesting and have been following from time to time.

If anybody runs across these pedals on a tractor, please drop me a line and I'll add the serial number to my list.

Mike,
I have a 1944 S with brass brake pedals, it's serial number is 4805220S. The 1944 SC I had didn't, I sold the tractor but the serial number on it was 4810563SC. Not sure what the time frame between the two tractors are.
