This clutch release bearing (model identification: VKC3615, 50TKB3505BR, 50SCRN40P-4, original equipment part number 31230-35070) is designed and manufactured specifically for the Toyota 1073CSR50 series. As a key transmission component in the clutch system, its core function is to precisely apply axial thrust to the clutch pressure plate's diaphragm spring (or release lever) via the clutch fork when the driver depresses the clutch pedal. This action effectively releases the pressure plate's pressure on the clutch friction plate, enabling smooth and rapid release of engine power to the transmission, ensuring seamless shifting. This precision-manufactured bearing is designed to withstand high-frequency axial loads and rotational friction, ensuring stable performance and durability under frequent clutching operations.
This release bearing strictly meets the clutch system specifications of the Toyota 1073CSR50 model. Model designations VKC3615, 50TKB3505BR, and 50SCRN40P-4, along with the core original equipment part number 31230-35070, refer to the same high-precision component, ensuring a perfect match with the original vehicle's clutch pressure plate, clutch fork, and hydraulic (or cable) operating mechanism. Their precise dimensions, load capacity, and mounting interface design are crucial for ensuring proper clutch assembly operation, eliminating abnormal disengagement noises (such as squeaking and rustling), and preventing incomplete disengagement. When replacing a clutch, ensure you select this designated model group and follow the standard installation procedures to restore the clutch system's original design performance.
