The Right Choice for Heavy and Light Commercial Vehicles
When choosing a clutch system for heavy and light commercial vehicles, there are two most common mechanisms: push and pull clutches. There are significant differences between these systems, both structurally and functionally. Understanding these differences, which impact your vehicle’s performance, fuel economy, and operating life, is key to choosing the right product.
In push clutch systems, when the clutch pedal is pressed, the pressure ball is pushed forward, disengaging the pressure plate. This system is an ideal option, especially for light commercial vehicles. Its advantages include ease of installation, widespread availability of parts, and access to service. Additionally, thanks to flexible production capabilities, customized solutions can be created for various vehicle types.
On the other hand, pull-type clutch systems operate by retracting the bearing in the direction of the pressure when the pedal is pressed. This system is an excellent choice for heavy commercial vehicles with high performance requirements. Thanks to its high torque carrying capacity, it provides a safe driving experience on long journeys, in harsh weather conditions, and when carrying heavy loads. The components in this system are made of high-quality steel and have superior heat resistance. This extends the system’s service life and reduces maintenance requirements.
Choosing the right clutch system not only affects the vehicle’s performance but also its operating costs. While a push system is sufficient for vehicles with low torque and for urban use, a pull system is recommended for high load capacity and challenging conditions.
At Dönmez Clutch, we manufacture both push and pull clutch systems with diameters ranging from 235 mm to 430 mm.
