What This Product Does

The ball pin provides the contact point around which the release lever pivots. It supports the lever as the clutch actuation system moves the release bearing. The pin is a separate component from the lever and bearing, rather than a complete clutch release assembly.

Functions

• Provides a pivot for the release lever.
• Supports lever movement during clutch operation.
• Forms part of the mechanical support for the release mechanism.

Symptoms of Fault

Wear around the pivot or adjoining lever can contribute to clicking during pedal operation, an uneven pedal response or incomplete clutch disengagement. These signs are not conclusive evidence of a failed ball pin; the lever, bearing, hydraulic system and other release components also need assessment.

Why Replacement Matters

A damaged or worn pivot contact can affect how the lever is supported. When carrying out clutch repairs, inspect the pin together with its mating surface and associated retaining components. Renewing a confirmed worn part addresses that contact point without assuming the complete clutch assembly is responsible.

FAQs

Is this the complete release lever?
No. This product is the ball pin; the lever, clamp, sealing ring and release bearing are separately identified components in the supplied diagrams.

Should other parts be inspected?
Check the lever contact surface, retaining hardware, bearing and guide sleeve for associated deterioration.

Does it require lubrication?
Follow the vehicle-specific workshop instructions for lubricant selection and application. Lubricant must not contaminate clutch friction surfaces.
