Product Description
Clutch hubs are an important component of the clutch system in a variety of vehicles, including cars, motorcycles, and other two-wheeled vehicles. The clutch hub is the central part of the clutch assembly, located between the clutch plates and the transmission.
The clutch hub consists of a series of splines or teeth that mesh with corresponding splines or teeth on the transmission input shaft. When the clutch is engaged, the clutch hub rotates with the engine output shaft and transfers power to the transmission. When the clutch is disengaged, the clutch hub remains stationary and power transmission is interrupted.
Clutch hubs are typically made from high-strength materials such as steel or aluminum alloy, and are designed to withstand the high torque and rotational forces generated by the engine. They may also be designed with features such as oil passages or cooling fins to help dissipate heat and extend the life of the clutch assembly.
Like other components of the clutch system, clutch hubs can wear over time and require replacement. Symptoms of a worn or damaged clutch hub can include difficulty shifting gears, slipping or dragging of the clutch, and a grinding or rattling noise when the clutch is engaged. It is important to have any issues with the clutch assembly, including the clutch hub, diagnosed and repaired by a qualified mechanic to ensure safe and reliable operation of the vehicle.
