Eicher 635 K or International Harvester 364?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 635 K has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 364 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Eicher 635 K suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 61% (16.7 L/min / 4.4 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Eicher 635 K has 61% more hydraulic flow (16.7 L/min / 4.4 gpm) than the International Harvester 364 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The International Harvester 364 is 19% heavier (281 kg / 619 lb) than the Eicher 635 K (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Eicher 635 K has 38% more forward gears (3 gears) than the International Harvester 364 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Eicher 635 K is newer: production began 10 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540 rpm).
- Even on drive: all two-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 635 K has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 364 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
