Clutch Plate

 Clutch Plate A worn clutch disc will cause clutch slippage and, sometimes, damage to the flywheel and pressure plate. To check disc wear, inspect the depth of the rivet holes. The closer the rivets are to the surface of the friction material, the more worn the disc. Normally, the friction disc is replaced anytime the clutch is removed for repairs. The disc is reasonably inexpensive and highly prone to wear.

Martin's Clutch and Brake can provide you with a Brand New Clutch, Exchange Clutch, Custom Built Clutches and/or have your old or rare clutch plate resurfaced.

Cover Assembly

A faulty pressure plate can also cause clutch slippage as well as clutch release problems (stiff clutch pedal, clutch grabbing, abnormal noises, dragging clutch). The springs inside the clutch could lose tension or break. The release levers could be bent or out of adjustment. The face of the pressure plate could also be scored.

Inspect the pressure plate closely using the information in a service manual. The manual will describe various measurements to determine its condition.

Modern practice is to replace the pressure plate. Most mechanics don't repair them, as it is not cost effective for them to do so. Martin's Clutch and Brake can rebuild your old one or supply you a new one depending on your budget.

Bearing and Release Bearing

A worn pilot bearing will allow the transmission input, shaft and clutch disc to wobble up and down. This can cause clutch vibration, abnormal noises, and damage to the transmission. Martin's Clutch and Brake can supply you with a new bearing.
