Lower Radiator Grille for Case IH Tractors - Code 65402099
The lower front bodywork radiator grille panel / nose guard (Product Code: 65402099) is a high-grade structural replacement component engineered for the front cowl shell of agricultural utility tractors under the Case IH / International Harvester brands. Built to fully align with original factory OEM references 85640C2, I85640C2, 85640C1, and 87718436, this lower ventilation louver grid optimizes engine bay air intake cycles while shielding the bottom half of the cooling core from airborne particles and field impact hazards.
Design Details and Functionality
This lower louver panel insert is manufactured from heavy-duty structural technical matrices designed to provide high heat tolerance, chemical stability, and structural longevity over a demanding service life. The exact fin spacing and geometric aperture layout carefully duplicate original aerodynamic profiles to preserve factory-intended heat dissipation parameters, preventing coolant overheating during intensive field tasks or heavy towing. Pre-molded installation tracks around the frame perimeter support a true flush-fit onto the central front framework with zero loose mechanical play, maintaining the classic styling lines of the vehicle. It serves as an optimal field-maintenance choice for classic European tractor lines, including the models of the B-Familie Series (such as 743, 745 S, 844 S, 845, and 856 XL models) and the heavy-duty C-Familie Series (956 and 1056 units, including XL configurations).
