Even the highest-quality and most durable car clutch is subject to operational wear and tear. This is where clutch pressure plates from Sachs come in. Designed to reduce wear on the clutch system, these pressure plates provide automatic wear compensation by separating facing wear from the movement of the diaphragm spring. The compensation mechanism constantly registers reduction in the lining and compensates for the clearance by reliably turning an adjustment ring. This keeps the clutch from being vulnerable to extreme temperatures, soiling and aging. Furthermore, the pedal-force conditions remain constant over the entire service life. At the same time, the service life is extended, since the facing can continue to be worn.
