The Holt tractors were a range of continuous track haulers built by the Holt Manufacturing Company, which was named after Benjamin Holt.

Between 1908 and 1913, twenty-seven of the first 100 Holt caterpillar track-type tractors were used on the Los Angeles Aqueduct project, which provided a good proving ground for these machines.^[1]

Military use[edit]

They were widely used by the British, French, and American armies in World War I for hauling heavy artillery; including the BL 9.2-inch howitzer and the BL 8-inch howitzer.^[2] Around 2000 Holt 75s along with 698 Holt 120s and 63 Holt 60s saw military use during the war.^[2]

The French Schneider CA1 and Saint-Chamond and German A7V tanks were based on Holt tractors.

Specification[edit]

There were at least three models used for military purposes: the Holt 75, the Holt 120 and to a lesser extent the Holt 60. The Holt 75 was first produced in 1913.^[2] It used two tracks for steering. It had a maximum speed of 15 miles per hour (24 km/h) and had a gasoline engine.^[3] In addition to US production 442 Holt 75s were built in Britain by Ruston & Hornsby in Lincoln.^[2] Production of the Holt 75 was to continue post war until 1924.^[2]

The 120 horsepower (89 kW) model had a tiller-type steering wheel at the front that was usually covered. It weighed about 18,000 pounds (8,200 kg).^[4] It was developed in direct response to a request for a heavy artillery tractor.^[2] The prototype was produced in 1914 with production beginning in 1915.^[2]

The Holt 60 which saw limited use in the war was introduced in 1911.^[2]
