Description
Overview:
This clutch release bearing is a heavy‐duty thrust bearing for later Thwaites-type dumpers and compatible Benford/Barford machines with manual gearboxes. It transfers force from the clutch fork to the pressure plate, allowing smooth clutch disengagement and reliable gear changes under load. Built from hardened steel with a thrust race and twin side pins for fork actuation, it is engineered for frequent stop‐start work on site. Key sizing helps with identification and fit: outer diameter 65 mm (2.56 in), inner diameter 35 mm (1.38 in), bearing thickness 28 mm (1.10 in), and full length across the side pins 106 mm (4.17 in). Suitable for common models such as Benford 2 Ton and Benford 3 Ton, it offers a straightforward replacement option during clutch service or overhaul.
