How Often Should the Clutch Disc of a Sedan Be Replaced?
1 Answers
The clutch disc of a sedan should be replaced every 100,000 kilometers. The clutch disc is a composite material that primarily functions through friction while also meeting structural performance requirements. Friction materials used in automobiles are mainly for manufacturing brake friction pads and clutch discs. These friction materials were traditionally made from asbestos-based materials. However, with increasing environmental and safety requirements, semi-metallic friction materials, composite fiber friction materials, and ceramic fiber friction materials have gradually emerged. A standard automobile clutch disc is assembled from components such as the friction plate, hub, damping spring, damping plate, and damping sheet. During driving, when the clutch pedal is pressed, the clutch disc separates from the engine flywheel, allowing the driver to shift from a higher gear to a lower gear.
