This tapered roller bearing supports radial and axial loads within the clutch assembly of the host tractor or vehicle. It sits between the rotating input shaft and the stationary housing, allowing the clutch to engage and disengage smoothly under load. A worn bearing produces audible rumble during engagement and can cause shaft misalignment, leading to premature clutch disc or pressure-plate wear. The bearing is manufactured to the same internal clearance and raceway geometry as the original component, so it maintains the correct preload in the assembly without requiring shimming. On installation, verify the bearing is fully seated against the shoulder and that the retaining snap ring engages fully.
