concentric slave cylinders, Hydraulic Bearings & Spacers

 
 

The concentric slave cylinder is found in many late model vehicles as original equipment. ACE has a broad range of these cylinders, some come with the thrust bearing as an assembly, and some are available as individual hydraulic units.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Advantages:
- Smaller number of moving parts, thus less parts failures
- Less area required inside bell-housing
- Less pedal pressures
- Self adjusting system
- Simple installation

 
     
 
 
     
 

Hydraulic Bearings eliminate the need for a clutch fork, slave cylinder and throw-out bearing. Hydraulic bearings are now widely used in most applications where there is limited room, or the orginal components are heat effected.

Delivering a very smooth operation due to reduced load that was common on original equipment.

 
     
 

Spacers maybe required to setup the CSC or Hydraulic Bearing to the correct height for clutch operation. These come in varying thickness, and can also be machined to a specific size if required.
