PTO clutch linings in the UK.

Recommended Posts

ranger

This post is primarily aimed at members in the UK. I’ve been on the lookout for a source of PTO  clutch linings this side of the pond. I found a company that supplies all kinds of bespoke clutches etc for classic vehicles etc. I’ve just ordered some 6 3/4” linings for around $10 each + tax etc. I realise you have sources of your own over in the States, but, over here things are not quite so plentiful. For UK members the name of the company is, Clutchfix ltd. They have a website. They supply to dimensions supplied by the customer. In my case, 171x108x4mm. Material RF40, suggested adhesive Araldite. Photo = reason for requirement 🙀

New linings just arrived, although yesterday I ‘re-glued’ the lining on the C161 pto, which was almost off when I bought it. Still I have some more clutch plates I can now ‘Reline’.62A07321-E9FE-41A2-A80D-646C62E193DF.jpeg.9b8a18f7b36c45e5d35adc38a14f0f61.jpeg

Hello! I needed to reline a Wheelhorse clutch a few years ago and found a commercial vehicle spares supplier 'Trafford Brake and Hose Services' in St Helens. Not only did they supply the lining but they also glued it on for me. My recollection is that it cost £30 which I thought 'not cheap' at the time...Will no doubt be more now!

 

I'd avoid standard Araldite - the type usually available from diy stores (particularly the 5 minute variety) as it is little better than cheese. I generally use Araldite 2015 for most applications now as it is a much more robust material.

Hi. Mine cut to size were £10.14p each. I ordered 3, postage I think was around £8.00 for the three. (Very well packaged). I used JBWeld for the adhesive, appears to be holding up well at the moment!🤞🤞

Sounds very good, thanks for the heads up!
