Farmer’s tractor cab business goes from strength to strength  

The McMasters started Tractor Cab Specialists over 20 years ago when they struggled to find parts for their own tractors.

Tractor Cab Specialists, based in Ballymena, Northern Ireland, started in business around 25 years ago when they needed to repair a tractor on the family farm but struggled to find a part – so they made it themselves.

Demand from other farmers led them to manufacture that part and many others – and they later went into the trim business, as again, they couldn’t find what they needed and suppliers had retired out of the business, explains Logan McMaster, of Tractor Cab Specialists.

Now, a couple of decades later, the company supplies a wide range of high-quality steel parts, panels and interiors for most makes of tractor cabs to customers in the UK and Ireland.

All parts are high quality and manufactured to the original specifications – and the vast majority are designed and manufactured by the company itself. Bespoke parts can also be manufactured if required.

Tractor Cab Specialists also offers an extensive range of cab trim kits and decals, among many other items, and the team are confident that they can supply whatever the customer is looking for.

Whilst they used to sell a lot of parts, panels and interiors for classic tractors, soaring prices of machinery and the rising complexity of technology has meant more farmers are repairing working tractors rather than just collectibles, Logan said.

“They’re keeping and using the older tractors because they’re less trouble, with less technology – and they do the job. There’s no doubt that’s a trend we’ve noticed.”

And since the family continues to run a farm alongside the tractor business, the team understands what farmers and tractor restorers need and the parts are often tried and tested before being shipped.

Logan says the company does not have an online shop because they often find there is no one part that fits all so they like to have a conversation with the customer to make sure they get the right parts to suit their various applications.

The vast majority of stock is available for immediate delivery and worldwide delivery can be arranged.
