Clutch Release Bearing B41

The B41 Clutch Release Bearing, designed specifically for automotive manual transmissions, is crucial for smooth system operation. As a key component in clutch operation, it absorbs axial forces during operation, ensuring smooth gear engagement and disengagement. As the critical interface between the clutch pedal and the pressure plate, this bearing absorbs the axial forces generated during clutch operation, ensuring smooth gear engagement and disengagement. Its robust double-ring construction, with inner and outer rings made of high-grade chromium steel (GCr-15) and precision-machined rolling elements, minimizes friction and wear under dynamic loads. The integrated thrust washer design is optimized to provide excellent axial stability, ensuring consistent contact with the diaphragm spring and reducing vibration and noise during clutch operation. Thermal stability is a key consideration in the bearing's design, utilizing advanced lubrication solutions—including a high-temperature grease formula designed to withstand extreme operating conditions—to ensure consistent performance over long periods of use.

The B41 is suitable for a wide range of passenger and commercial vehicle applications, incorporating innovative engineering solutions to meet the demands of modern transmission systems. Its unique contact raceway geometry provides self-aligning capabilities, compensating for slight misalignments in the transmission system, thereby improving durability and reducing premature wear. The bearing's sealing system uses a double lip seal design that effectively blocks contaminants and retains grease, ensuring stable performance in harsh environments. In addition, its lightweight and rigid structure helps improve fuel efficiency by reducing rotating mass, while the optimized surface treatment reduces energy loss during clutch engagement. The bearing's manufacturing standards meet or exceed original equipment manufacturer specifications, demonstrating excellent reliability in high-stress applications, providing automakers and aftermarket suppliers with a reliable option for ensuring transmission system efficiency and service life.
