MAN N1011009989 Clutch Disc

Description

The MAN N1011009989 is a clutch plate, also known as a clutch disc, essential for transmitting engine power to the drivetrain. It's used in heavy-duty vehicles to facilitate smooth gear changes and efficient power transfer. This component features dimensions of 41 x 380 x 380 mm and is designed to withstand high temperatures and torsional stress. The clutch disc enables reliable engagement and disengagement, contributing to enhanced vehicle control and prolonged drivetrain life.

Key Features & Benefits

This thing basically connects the engine's power to the transmission, allowing you to smoothly transfer power to the wheels. It’s covered in friction material, kind of like brake pads, and that’s what actually grips the flywheel and pressure plate. When you push the clutch pedal, it disengages that connection, letting you shift gears. When you release it, it re – engages, sending power back to the wheels. It’s all about controlled engagement and disengagement. It’s a core part of your manual transmission system. Think of it as the link between the engine’s willingness to spin and the wheels actually moving the car. Without a functioning clutch disc, you wouldn’t be able to change gears or smoothly start and stop. Automatic transmissions don’t need this because they use a torque converter instead.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

It's important because if this wears out, you’ll notice if it’s slipping – the engine will rev higher but the car won’t accelerate as it should. It acts like a shield protecting other parts of the drivetrain from excessive wear. If it fails completely, you won’t be able to engage the transmission at all. It’s one of those things that, when it’s good, you don't really think about it. When it goes bad, it’s pretty obvious and can lead to more expensive repairs if you ignore it. You can find a good replacement for your vehicle over at Fixparts Online, and they usually have a pretty good selection.
