Similar to tyres and brakes, clutches are main expendable components in vehicles. The service life is highly dependent on the quality, the professional fitting and the correct use of the product as well as the vehicle‘s conditions of use. The clutch is one of the elements in the drive assembly which has to sustain major strain due to the effect of vibration, pressure and centrifugal forces, and the friction heat created. The clutch forms the interface between the motor and gear box.
The main tasks are:
Enabling comfortable gear changes
Transferring the motor torque to the drive components
