Collection: Clutch & Flywheel Bundles

The clutch & flywheel are integral components of a car's manual transmission system that work together to enable smooth gear changes & efficient power transfer. The clutch consists of a clutch disc, pressure plate, & release bearing, while the flywheel is a rotating disc bolted to the engine's crankshaft. When the clutch pedal is pressed, it disengages the clutch by separating the clutch disc from the flywheel. This interruption of power flow allows for gear changes without damaging the transmission or causing excessive wear on the clutch components. The flywheel provides a smooth surface for the clutch disc to engage & disengage against, & it also helps to maintain rotational momentum in the engine. The flywheel's mass can affect the engine's responsiveness & overall performance. In high-performance applications, lightweight flywheels are often used to reduce rotational inertia & improve throttle response. Proper maintenance & periodic inspections are important for the clutch & flywheel to ensure smooth operation, including checking for wear, adjusting clutch engagement, & replacing worn components. A well-functioning clutch & flywheel assembly is crucial for efficient power transfer & optimal performance in manual transmission vehicles.
