L0161020103A0 Pressure Plate & Cover – Engineered for Consistent Clamping Force

The L0161020103A0 Clutch Pressure Plate with Cover Assembly is a precision-manufactured component that provides the necessary clamping force to engage the driven plate against the flywheel. This assembly consists of a rigid stamped steel cover, a high-performance diaphragm spring with optimized lever geometry, and a hardened pressure plate with a finely ground friction surface.

The diaphragm spring is manufactured from premium spring steel, heat-treated to ensure consistent load-deflection characteristics and superior fatigue resistance. The pressure plate friction surface is induction-hardened and machined to a mirror finish, providing excellent heat dissipation and resistance to scoring, which guarantees stable pedal feel and even wear across the driven plate facing.

Designed as a direct OEM replacement, the L0161020103A0 guarantees that your HOWO chassis maintains its factory clutch engagement characteristics, delivering the exact pedal effort, take-up point, and modulation that drivers expect. The assembly is dynamically balanced to minimize vibration, ensuring smooth operation at all engine speeds and reducing bearing loads.

With the L0161020103A0, SINOTRUK HOWO sets a new benchmark for pressure plate reliability. Every unit undergoes rigorous testing for clamp load, lever height consistency, and runout, ensuring that each assembly provides reliable torque transmission and a long, trouble-free service life.
