Fordson Super Dexta (960 E) or International Harvester 364?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Super Dexta (960 E) 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 International Harvester 364 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 47% (8.7 L/min / 2.3 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The International Harvester 364 suits road haulage better on this data: 25% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) more top speed.
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 International Harvester 364 has 47% more hydraulic flow (8.7 L/min / 2.3 gpm) than the Fordson Super Dexta (960 E) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The International Harvester 364 is 21% heavier (306 kg / 675 lb) than the Fordson Super Dexta (960 E) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The International Harvester 364 has 33% more forward gears (2 gears) than the Fordson Super Dexta (960 E) (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The International Harvester 364 has 25% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the Fordson Super Dexta (960 E) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The International Harvester 364 is newer: production began 14 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- 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 Super Dexta (960 E) 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.
