It's responsible for transferring hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder to the release fork, ultimately disengaging the clutch for smooth gear changes. This cylinder is commonly found in commercial vehicle applications. The cylinder's OE specification ensures consistent performance and reliability, while its robust construction provides long-lasting durability. Its dimensions are 130 x 120 x 240 mm. The cylinder features a stroke of 53.3 mm and operates effectively up to a maximum pressure of 100.0 bar within a temperature range of -40°C to +80°C, ensuring consistent operation in diverse conditions.

Key Features & Benefits

It basically takes the pressure from your master cylinder – when you push down on the clutch pedal – and turns that hydraulic pressure into mechanical movement. That movement pushes on the throw – out fork, which disengages the clutch from the engine. It’s all about transferring that force so you can smoothly shift gears. Think of it like a helper – the master cylinder tells it what to do, and it does the work of actually pushing things. It’s a key part of your clutch system. It sits right near the transmission. When you press the clutch, the master cylinder sends fluid to the slave cylinder. This pushes a piston inside the slave cylinder, which then operates the clutch fork. It’s the link between your foot and getting the engine disconnected from the wheels so you can change gears.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Honestly, if it goes bad, you’ll notice. You might have trouble getting into gear, especially first or reverse. Or you might find it hard to get the clutch pedal to come back up after you depress it. Sometimes it’ll leak fluid, which is a big indicator. If it fails completely, you could even lose the ability to shift altogether. It’s not something you want to ignore. They do wear out over time, especially with a lot of clutch use. A lot of guys find parts like this on Fixparts Online, good place to check for replacements.
