In recent years Self-Adjusting Clutches have become the standard equipment in applications with high engine torque or with increased requirements for wear reserve. INSTALLATION NOTE: This self-adjusting clutch includes a shipping plate which must not be removed prior to installation. If this plate is removed prematurely, the clutch will self-adjust and become unusable. Removing or tampering with this plate prior to installation will VOID THE WARRANTY! Installation requires a re-usable two piece tool, which must be purchased separately. Self Adjusting Clutch Assembly The SAC uses a load sensor (sensor diaphragm spring) to activate its wear adjustment function by turning a ramped ring. This wear adjusting mechanism reduces the required actuation forces while increasing clutch life by around 1.5 times. In addition, actuation forces remain nearly unchanged throughout the clutches service life. The SAC wear-adjustment system, which consists of the sensor diaphragm spring (load sensor) and a deep-drawn steel adjusting ring is characterized by its excellent functional accuracy. As clutch actuation comfort requires a harmonic operating load curve in addition to low actuation forces, the SAC was designed with the capacity to be tuned to each vehicle’s specific characteristic curve. One such feature is the compensation spring, which is able to generate the flatter characteristic curves that are frequently desired.

Product Features:

• Low release loads which remain constant throughout the entire service life
• Therefore, excellent driving comfort throughout the entire service life
• Increased reserve for wear and consequently longer service life thanks to automatic wear adjustment
• Release bearing over-travel is prevented by the diaphragm spring end stop
• Simplified release system design
• Shorter pedal travel
• New engineering concepts to reduce the clutch diameter (torque transfer)
• Shorter release bearing travel throughout bearing life

Release Arm Spring

LuK dual-mass flywheels absorb engine vibrations before they are transmitted to the driveline where they can create gear rattle. These units feature a built-in damper designed to isolate engine torque spikes and prevent transmission damage. By design, dual-mass flywheels cannot be resurfaced. This all makes the LuK dual mass flywheel the ideal solution. With one drawback: the higher the mass reactance of the vibrating masses, the more excessive the resonance increase and associated torque peaks. With the dual mass flywheel, this would be easily perceived when starting and stopping the engine; much more easily than with a conventional clutch system. Additionally: the smaller flymass of the engine has less of a stabilizing effect on the speed fluctuation of the engine. Thanks to decades of experience in clutch building, the LuK specialists were able to find an excellent solution to this problem. An additional damping device effectively prevents resonance overload. In normal operation, however, this additional damping device has no function and the torsional vibrations of the engine are filtered out by spring dampers. Friction and spring rate – the correct ratio is important. For optimal vibration isolation and soft resonance passage when starting and stopping the engine, the ratio between friction and spring rate must be optimal. The length of the springs is a key factor: The softer a spring, the more efficiently vibrations are isolated. The extra-long springs of the latest generation of dual mass flywheels significantly reduce the spring rate compared to a first generation dual mass flywheel. In routine driving operations, excessive resonance increases are kept almost completely away from the gearbox.

Product Features:

• Top driving comfort
• Absorbs vibrations
• Prevents noise
• Enables comfortable, low-revs driving
• Saves fuel
• Relieves crankshaft and gearbox

LuK: Don’t gamble – stay with the original DMF! The DMF prevents damages solid flywheels may cause. The Dual Mass Flywheel (DMF) is individually fine-tuned for every type of car. The risks of using solid flywheels are numerous – from increased wear of engine mounts through gearbox failure to damaged crankshafts.
