Clutch bearings are crucial components in a vehicle's manual transmission system. They consist of an outer ring, inner ring, rolling elements, a cage, and contact surfaces. Made of chrome steel, stainless steel, or special high-quality bearing steel, they offer self-lubrication, low vibration, and self-aligning properties. Their internal design incorporates a triple-lip seal and high-temperature resistant grease.
The clutch bearing's primary function is to control the disengagement and engagement of the clutch pressure plate and flywheel through axial movement, enabling power transfer between the engine and transmission, ensuring smooth vehicle starts and shifts.
