8in. Clutch plate

Posted: Sun Jul 07, 2019 7:50 am

Can someone please tell me the thickness of a new 8in clutch plate.  I am having trouble getting a new cover/plate combination to disengage and think the 9.5 mm thickness of the new plate may be too much.  If not it must be the cover which is rather more difficult to measure.

Attachments : Ian:  I have a brand New FERODO disk p/n 48323  it measures .305/.306 inches (7.75mm)   The old disk I removed only because I was overhauling the engine measure .289/,290 inches (7.36mm).  The transmissionwas still prformong well at the thickness, the plate only has a bit of glazing.   While my unit cannot be judged as a benchmark, it does lend credence to what you suspect that 9.5mm may be too much. Almost .070" thicker than my new one.

Thanks MP.  It surprises me that such a small increase should cause a problem as I always thought that the thicker the better.  I think I will have to get as new one. Ian

Ian, Seems a bit thick but I would have thought it would be OK, but check that it is not warped or twisted. Over the years I've had a few clutch plates that were not flat or concentric that caused problems.

I would have thought that too Clive but fitting the new, thick plate with the old, worn cover the clutch will not disengage.  The springs are not even compressing.  It's as if there is no clearance left. Ian

I agree 0.300 thick clutch plate is as new, if not new.

Ian:  I have a brand New FERODO disk p/n 48323  it measures .305/.306 inches (7.75mm)   The old disk I removed only because I was overhauling the engine measure .289/,290 inches (7.36mm).  The transmissionwas still prformong well at the thickness, the plate only has a bit of glazing.   While my unit cannot be judged as a benchmark, it does lend credence to what you suspect that 9.5mm may be too much. Almost .070" thicker than my new one.
