Clutch Release Bearing.
The OE Match Clutch Release Bearing also known as a throw-out bearing, is a high-quality replacement clutch system component designed to transfer force from the clutch release mechanism to the clutch pressure plate. Manufactured to OE specifications for fit, performance and durability, this precision-engineered bearing plays a vital role in ensuring smooth clutch engagement and disengagement.  

PLEASE NOTE:  These require additional lubrication. This can be done through the two small holes at the back. It appears that otherwise they run dry too quickly.

Fits:

Constructed from premium-grade bearing materials and designed to withstand continuous rotational forces, heat and mechanical loads, the clutch release bearing enables the clutch assembly to operate smoothly while minimising friction and wear. It is an essential component for maintaining proper clutch performance, gear selection and driving comfort.  

What This Product Does:

• Transfers force from the clutch release fork to the pressure plate.
• Enables smooth clutch disengagement when the pedal is pressed.
• Allows rotational movement between stationary and rotating components.
• Reduces friction within the clutch release mechanism.
• Supports smooth gear changes and transmission operation.
• Helps maintain consistent clutch pedal feel.
• Contributes to overall drivetrain reliability and performance.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:

• Squealing, whirring or grinding noises when the clutch pedal is depressed.
• Noise that disappears when the clutch pedal is released.
• Rough or inconsistent clutch pedal operation.
• Increased clutch pedal effort.
• Vibration felt through the clutch pedal.
• Difficulty engaging or changing gears.
• Clutch drag or incomplete disengagement.
• Excessive wear within the clutch release mechanism.
• Complete clutch operation failure in severe cases.

Why Replacement Matters:

• The clutch release bearing is subjected to constant mechanical loading, rotational movement and heat whenever the clutch is operated. Over time, the internal bearing surfaces can wear, lubrication can deteriorate and bearing clearances can increase, leading to noise, vibration and reduced performance.
• A failing release bearing can affect clutch operation and place additional stress on the pressure plate, release fork and other clutch components. If left unresolved, bearing failure can lead to difficult gear changes, clutch disengagement problems and potentially extensive clutch system damage requiring major repairs.
• Replacing a worn clutch release bearing restores smooth clutch operation, improves driving comfort and helps protect other clutch components from premature wear. An OE Match replacement provides factory-style fitment, precision manufacturing and dependable long-term durability, ensuring reliable clutch performance and helping maintain the driving experience expected from your Porsche.
