Heavy Duty Aluminum Clutch Plate - B - #92A (Item #651005)

Key Benefits

The Heavy Duty Aluminum Clutch Plate is a precision-engineered replacement part designed to provide reliable torque transfer and consistent performance for commercial cleaning equipment. Manufactured from premium-grade aluminum, this clutch plate delivers exceptional durability, heat resistance, and long-lasting performance in demanding operational environments. Its heavy-duty construction ensures it can handle the high stress and repetitive motion associated with industrial floor scrubbers, rotary machines, and other maintenance equipment, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. By incorporating this robust aluminum clutch plate into your equipment, you gain improved efficiency, better energy transfer, and smoother operation, making it an essential component for both professional and high-volume cleaning operations.

Why It Matters

Clutch plates are a critical component in the operation of machines that rely on controlled torque transfer. A worn or low-quality clutch plate can lead to slippage, inefficient energy use, excessive heat buildup, and accelerated wear on other machine components. Using a high-quality aluminum clutch plate such as the B-style #92A helps prevent these issues by providing a stable, heat-resistant surface capable of handling heavy-duty use. It ensures reliable engagement and disengagement of the clutch system, maintaining optimal performance of floor scrubbers and rotary machines. Regular replacement of worn or damaged clutch plates helps extend the lifespan of your equipment while maintaining consistent, smooth operation.

Installation Tips

Replacing the clutch plate requires attention to detail to ensure proper operation. Begin by following the manufacturer’s guidelines for disassembling the clutch assembly. Carefully remove the old or worn clutch plate and clean adjoining surfaces to remove any debris or buildup. Align the new Heavy Duty Aluminum Clutch Plate with the corresponding components, ensuring proper positioning and orientation. Secure all fasteners according to the manufacturer’s torque specifications. After installation, test the machine for smooth operation and correct engagement before returning it to full service. Proper installation is crucial for maximizing the plate’s lifespan and maintaining optimal equipment efficiency.

Maintenance Best Practices

Routine inspection and maintenance are essential to prolong the life of the clutch plate and the machine. Periodically check the plate for signs of wear, cracks, warping, or heat damage. Clean surfaces with non-abrasive tools to remove accumulated debris that may affect clutch performance. Replace the clutch plate promptly if any damage or excessive wear is detected to prevent further stress on adjoining components. Following these best practices ensures consistent torque transfer, reduces downtime, and maintains smooth, reliable machine operation.
