SINOTRUK HOWO ZM001D-1601308 Release Bearing – Smooth Clutch Disengagement for Heavy-Duty Chassis

ZM001D-1601308 Release Bearing – Engineered for Smooth Clutch Disengagement

The ZM001D-1601308 Release Bearing is a precision-engineered component that transmits the force from the clutch fork or hydraulic actuator to the clutch diaphragm spring, enabling smooth disengagement of the clutch plate. This bearing is designed to operate under high axial loads and continuous rotation during clutch pedal depression.

The bearing features a robust outer race, a hardened inner race, and a full complement of precision-grade rolling elements, all housed in a compact, corrosion-resistant casing. The internal grease fill is formulated for high-temperature stability and long-term lubrication, ensuring consistent performance even under the heat generated by frequent clutch use.

Designed as a direct OEM replacement, the ZM001D-1601308 ensures that your HOWO chassis retains its factory clutch actuation characteristics, providing the pedal feel and engagement point that drivers expect. The bearing is compatible with both mechanical linkage and hydraulic clutch systems.

With the ZM001D-1601308, SINOTRUK HOWO delivers a new benchmark in release bearing durability. Every unit is tested for runout, axial play, and rotational torque, ensuring that each bearing provides smooth, quiet, and reliable operation for the life of the clutch assembly.
