The Eaton Solo clutch features technology to keep the clutch in constant adjustment by continuously maintaining the release bearing position as the clutch wears.

“Owners of older vehicles now have a new and better solution for replacing their clutches,” said Ben Karrer, global product strategy manager, Eaton. “These remanufactured clutches strictly adhere to the specs and guidelines of all original equipment manufacturers to ensure longer life and trouble-free operation.”
