An Outer Clutch Disc is a key part in the clutch system, acting as the friction surface between the pressure plate and flywheel. It finds application in various vehicles to facilitate smooth power transmission. The technical advantages of this product include increased torque handling capacity, minimized wear on other components, and improved driving dynamics.
ZF is the manufacturer with MPN 1358303222, produced in Germany.
Clutch discs are circular friction plates integral to manual transmission vehicles, positioned between the engine flywheel and pressure plate. Their primary function is to transmit engine torque to the transmission input shaft when engaged, enabling gear changes. Core construction utilizes a steel center hub splined to the input shaft, faced with friction material riveted or bonded to both sides. Dampening springs or torsional dampers are commonly incorporated to mitigate driveline vibrations and noise. Variations exist based on spline count, diameter, friction material composition, and damping technology, dictated by vehicle and transmission specifications.
