Severe Duty Clutches

430mm SD Clutch

The 430mm SD clutch features patented cushioned ceramic facings for smooth launch characteristics and enhanced protection against thermal stress.

Weight Savings and Reduced Wear

The Eaton 430mm SD delivers performance comparable to a 400mm twin-plate clutch while using a single plate, resulting in weight savings. The lower inertia of the single-plate design also helps prevent premature wear on transmission synchronizers.

Maintenance and Operations

The robust clutch design and superior thermal durability ensure a longer service life and reduced maintenance costs. The cushioned ceramic facings minimize downtime in high-temperature environments by preventing clutch failures.

Vibration Control

The clutch includes six disc springs, with optional pre-dampers, to reduce idling noise and shield driveline components from engine torsional vibrations.
