Bearings

 

Conical Face Thrust Bearings

Used in single or twin clutch disc applications where a diaphragm spring is incorporated into the assembly.

The operating face of the bearing provides a fulcrum point designed to operate against theflat part of the diaphragm fingers. Generally a sealed bearing, these are available in either standard or self aligning styles.

Flat Face Thrust Bearings

Used in single or twin clutch disc applications where a diaphragm, lever or combined type assembly is used.

The operating face of the bearing is flat and designed to operate against a formed tip diaphragm, lever or a lever plate. These are generally sealed, although some may have a grease point fitted, also available in either standard or self aligning styles.

Concentric Slave Cylinders

This combined hydraulic slave cylinder and thrust bearing assembly is designed to operate directly in front onthe clutch cover assembly. The unique design eliminates the need for complex and sometimes expensive clutch release fork and linkage mechanisms. Having direct hydraulic load applied to the clutch via the master and concentric slave, provides less pedal effort, and over comes the possible loss of bearing travel due to wear, often associated with conventional linkage or cable type systems.
