It's designed for heavy-duty vehicle applications requiring reliable and precise brake control. This Tristop actuator, type 24/30, utilizes a cam-operated mechanism and is characterized by its double-diaphragm design for enhanced performance and durability. Key parameters include a diameter of 206.5 mm, a stroke of 75/75 mm, and bolt specifications of M16 x 1.5 with a length of 42.5 mm. The actuator's dimensions are 210 x 220 x 610 mm. Its OE specification ensures compatibility and optimal performance within existing air brake systems, delivering consistent and efficient braking while operating reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +80°C.

Key Features & Benefits

This kit basically handles engaging and disengaging power from your engine to the wheels when you press the clutch pedal. It uses two diaphragms—think of them like really strong, flexible springs—working together to create a smooth, consistent connection. The “Tristop” part refers to a specific design that gives you three distinct engagement points – that helps with smoother shifting, especially in heavy duty applications. It’s a complete kit, so it includes the clutch disc itself, the pressure plate which clamps it all together, a throwout bearing that presses against the diaphragm, and any alignment tools you'll need to get everything lined up correctly during installation. It’s a key part of your transmission system. When you push the clutch pedal, it disengages the engine from the wheels, allowing you to shift gears. When you let the pedal out, it smoothly re – engages the power, getting you moving again. It's really the connection point between the engine’s power and the wheels turning. Generally you’ll find these in heavier duty trucks and equipment.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, if it fails, you won’t be able to shift gears smoothly, or at all. You’ll notice if it starts slipping – the engine will rev up, but the vehicle won’t accelerate like it should. A worn or damaged clutch can also cause jerky starts and stops. It acts like a shield protecting the rest of the drivetrain from strain. Plus, a failing clutch puts a lot of stress on other components, and can lead to bigger, more expensive repairs down the line. You can often find a good kit like this one at places like Fixparts Online, and doing this job when it's starting to show signs of wear is a lot easier than waiting until it's completely gone.
