Description
Restore effortless gear shifting and eliminate drivetrain vibration on your commercial fleet with the genuine FAG Commercial Vehicle Clutch Release Bearing & Throwout Bearing. Engineered specifically for heavy-duty commercial trucks, long-haul freight haulers, and transit coaches, this OE-grade bearing assembly transmits pedal release force directly to the clutch pressure plate diaphragm spring under high-speed rotation. Worn contact faces, dried internal grease, or raceway spalling cause high-pitched clutch squeal, sticky pedal travel, incomplete gear disengagement, and severe clutch plate burning. This original FAG release bearing solves those transmission failures directly. It combines high-purity 100Cr6 bearing steel, self-aligning geometric architecture, heat-resistant synthetic grease, and low-friction contact seals to deliver whisper-quiet operation, minimal pedal effort, and uncompromised shifting safety in demanding transport operations.
Technical Parameters
| Category | Specifications & Technical Details |
| Self-Aligning Geometric Design | We build slight self-aligning capability into the bearing rings. It automatically corrects misalignment between the gearbox input shaft and engine flywheel. As a result, it prevents uneven wear on one side of the release fingers and eliminates severe vibration. |
| High-Purity Vacuum-Degassed 100Cr6 Steel | We manufacture the rings and balls from high-purity quenched bearing steel. It delivers extremely strong fatigue spalling resistance. Moreover, it easily handles the high-pressure impact of frequent clutch pedal application and prolonged clamping force. |
| High-Temperature Synthetic Coupling Grease | We pre-fill the bearing with long-life specialty synthetic grease. It withstands baking temperatures above 160°C and high-speed centrifugal throw-off. Consequently, it keeps lubrication effective in long-term dry-friction environments. |
| Triple-Lip High-Temperature Contact Seal | We equip high-temperature FKM / NBR sealing rings. They completely block splashed dust and metal particles from clutch plate wear out of the bearing raceways. |
| High-Strength Fatigue-Resistant Cage | We use reinforced engineering plastic or high-strength steel cages. They keep the balls running smoothly during high-speed rotational release. Notably, this significantly reduces friction resistance and operating noise. |
Applicable Car Brands & Models
Common warning symptoms include:
High-Pitched Chirping or Grinding Noise: A harsh metallic noise that appears or changes volume immediately when depresssing the clutch pedal.
Stiff or Vibration-Prone Clutch Pedal: Pulsation or a rough feeling transmitted through the clutch pedal during engagement or disengagement.
Hard Gear Engagement: Difficulty shifting into gear or gear crunching caused by incomplete clutch pressure plate separation.
Clutch Pedal Sticking to Floor: The clutch release mechanism binds, preventing the pedal from returning smoothly after release.
Premature failure is typically caused by “clutch riding” (drivers resting their foot on the pedal while driving), misalignment between the gearbox input shaft and engine, or clutch dust penetrating worn seals and drying out the internal lubricant.
Yes. Fleet technicians strongly recommend replacing the clutch disc, pressure plate, release bearing, and pilot bearing as a complete kit. Since replacing the bearing requires separating the transmission from the engine, replacing all wear components simultaneously prevents redundant labor costs.
Our 1-year warranty covers all raceway spalling, ball fatigue fracture, cage breakage, internal seal failures, and non-artificial mechanical defects under normal operating conditions. If a bearing fails within 12 months, we provide prompt replacement or warranty processing upon inspection.
