Clutch Covers

Single Push Type Lever Clutch

Clutch cover function
To operate the vehicle's transmission drive using a single pedal release mechanism.

Clutch cover design concept
The term "push type" can be used to describe the operation of this type of cover. The cover is operated by a single release bearing, operated in a forward pushing motion (toward the flywheel) with the use of hydraulics or mechanical linkages connected to a foot pedal. The plate clamping method is by a coil spring and lever arrangement. The cover is used with single clutch disc mounted against the flywheel.

Single Pull Type Clutch

Clutch cover function
To operate the vehicle's transmission drive using a single pedal release mechanism.

Clutch cover design concept
The term "pull type" can be used to describe the operation of this type of cover. The cover is operated by a single release bearing, operated in a rearward pulling motion (away from the flywheel) with the use of hydraulics or mechanical linkages connected to a foot pedal. The plate clamping method is usually a single diaphragm spring or coil type spring and lever arrangement. The cover is used with single clutch disc mounted against the flywheel.

Twin-Plate Push Type Clutch

Clutch cover function
To operate the vehicle's transmission drive through two clutch discs.

Clutch cover design concept
The term "twin-plate" is commonly used to describe the operation of this type of clutch where two plates are operated simultaneously with a single release mechanism. These are used in high kW engine applications where there is a requirements for the torque to be transferred through two main discs.
