The AZ992116080 Clutch Plate is a premium, heavy-duty chassis drivetrain component engineered specifically for SINOTRUK Howo trucks, delivering reliable torque transfer and smooth engagement between the engine and transmission. As a trusted supplier of genuine Sinotruk howo parts, we offer this OEM-grade clutch plate as a direct replacement for the original factory component. The AZ992116080 clutch plate ensures positive friction coupling, absorbs engine torque fluctuations, and withstands the constant heat, pressure and wear cycles of heavy commercial vehicle operation.
Manufactured from high-strength steel with a premium non-asbestos friction lining, a hardened hub and precision-machined splines, the AZ992116080 Clutch Plate is built to exact OEM dimensions. Its robust construction provides stable friction coefficients across a wide temperature range, resists fading under heavy loads and ensures smooth, judder-free engagement on Howo A7, T7H and related models.
OEM AZ992116080 • High friction stability • Heat and wear resistant • Precision splines • Direct OEM fit
The AZ992116080 Clutch Plate is the driven disc in the clutch assembly of SINOTRUK Howo trucks. It sits between the flywheel and the pressure plate, and its friction lining transmits engine torque to the transmission input shaft through a splined hub. When the clutch pedal is released, the pressure plate clamps the disc against the flywheel, enabling smooth engagement and power transfer.
This AZ992116080 clutch plate is precision-manufactured to exact OEM dimensions. The friction lining is riveted or bonded to a hardened steel carrier, the hub splines are cut to the correct profile, and the torsional damper springs are tuned to absorb engine torque pulses. This ensures quiet operation, smooth take-up and long service life.
Common signs that a clutch plate needs replacement include clutch slipping under load, difficulty engaging gears, clutch chatter or judder, a burning smell after hill starts, and reduced pedal free play. Fitting a new AZ992116080 clutch plate restores proper torque transfer and smooth clutch operation.
Whether you are rebuilding a clutch assembly, repairing a slipping drivetrain or carrying out preventive maintenance on a fleet of Howo trucks, the AZ992116080 Clutch Plate delivers the quality, strength and durability that SINOTRUK Howo professionals expect.
The AZ992116080 Clutch Plate is designed for SINOTRUK Howo trucks, with primary compatibility across the A7, T7H, HOWO 371 and HOWO 380 series equipped with the standard manual transmission and single or twin-disc clutch system. It is a direct OE replacement, so it fits the factory flywheel, pressure plate and input shaft without modification.
This clutch plate is essential in applications where reliable torque transfer and driver control are critical, such as long-haul transport, construction, mining and municipal service. In these duties, the plate must resist heat, slipping and shock loads while delivering smooth take-up and predictable engagement.
When replacing the clutch plate, it is recommended to inspect the flywheel surface, pressure plate, release bearing and pilot bearing for wear or heat damage. The AZ992116080 is designed to work with the factory clutch components, ensuring correct alignment and reliable operation. It is suitable for both standard and heavy-duty drivetrain configurations.
For fleets with multiple HOWO trucks, standardising on the AZ992116080 simplifies clutch repair inventory and ensures the correct plate is available for scheduled maintenance or emergency repairs.
Replacing the AZ992116080 Clutch Plate is a major repair that requires mechanical expertise, specialised tools and a suitable workshop. This work should be performed by qualified technicians with experience in heavy-duty drivetrain systems. Begin by disconnecting the battery and supporting the transmission with a jack or crane.
Remove the transmission and the pressure plate, then withdraw the old clutch plate from the flywheel. Inspect the flywheel for cracks, heat spots or grooves, and machine or replace it if necessary. Check the pilot bearing and release bearing for wear, and replace them as a set.
Position the new AZ992116080 clutch plate against the flywheel with the correct side facing the pressure plate. Use a clutch alignment tool to centre the disc, then install the pressure plate and torque the bolts evenly in a star pattern. Refit the transmission and reconnect all linkages.
After installation, check the clutch pedal free play and adjust the release mechanism as required. Road-test the vehicle and check for smooth engagement, no slipping and no chatter. For ongoing maintenance, avoid riding the clutch and inspect the clutch system at every major service.
The AZ992116080 Clutch Plate is manufactured in an ISO 9001-certified facility using advanced stamping, riveting or bonding, spline cutting and balancing processes. Raw steel and friction material are tested for chemical composition, hardness and thermal stability before production begins.
Each clutch plate is precision-formed to the correct diameter, thickness and spline profile. The friction lining is checked for bond strength and surface flatness, and the torsional damper springs are tested for correct rate and travel. Every assembly is dynamically balanced to minimise vibration.
Random samples from each production batch undergo thermal cycling, torque capacity and fatigue testing to validate long-term reliability under real-world conditions. These tests ensure the AZ992116080 continues to deliver smooth, reliable torque transfer throughout its service life.
We back the AZ992116080 with a comprehensive 12-month warranty against material and workmanship defects. Our rigorous quality control ensures that every clutch plate delivers the same fit, friction and durability as the original factory component.
The AZ992116080 Clutch Plate is a critical drivetrain component for your Howo truck. A worn or contaminated clutch plate causes slipping, loss of power and difficult gear engagement, and can damage the flywheel and pressure plate. Replacing it with this genuine OEM-grade plate restores smooth, reliable torque transfer.
Manufactured from high-strength steel with a stable non-asbestos lining, precision splines and a tuned torsional damper, the AZ992116080 offers outstanding friction performance, heat resistance and long-term durability. Its exact OEM fit ensures straightforward installation and reliable operation.
Fleet operators benefit from reduced drivetrain downtime, lower maintenance costs and improved vehicle reliability. Owner-operators gain peace of mind knowing their clutch is renewed with a plate that meets strict OEM standards and is backed by a comprehensive warranty.
