Universal Forklift Clutch Plate — Multi-Brand Replacement for 1-5 Ton Diesel Forklifts

This universal forklift clutch plate (clutch disc) is engineered as a multi-fit replacement component covering the most commonly serviced 1-5 ton diesel and LPG counterbalance forklifts across Heli, Hangcha, TCM, Toyota, Komatsu, Lonking, and other major brands. The clutch plate is the friction interface that sits between the engine flywheel and the pressure plate — when the clutch pedal is released and the pressure plate clamps the disc against the flywheel, engine torque flows through the friction facings and the splined hub into the transmission input shaft. This is one of the highest-wear components on any manual-transmission forklift, as every gear change, every loaded start, and every direction reversal requires the disc to slip momentarily while matching engine speed to transmission speed. A worn clutch plate exhibits progressive symptoms: first a high engagement point as the friction material thins, then slippage under heavy load causing engine RPM to rise without corresponding vehicle acceleration, then juddering or grabbing during engagement as the facings glaze or wear unevenly, and finally complete failure where the rivets score the flywheel surface and the forklift becomes immobile.

Manufactured with a precision-stamped steel core plate onto which high-grade organic friction facings are bonded under controlled heat and pressure using a thermoset adhesive system rated for continuous operating temperatures up to 350°C. The organic friction compound incorporates aramid reinforcing fibers, brass and copper particles for thermal conductivity and consistent friction characteristics, and mineral fillers that control wear rate and prevent glazing under high-energy slip conditions. The splined hub is machined from alloy steel with involute spline profiles that provide zero-backlash engagement with the transmission input shaft while allowing smooth axial movement for clutch disengagement. Integral to the hub is a torsional damper assembly — a set of calibrated coil springs arranged in windows within the hub flange — that absorbs the cyclic torque pulsations inherent to diesel engine firing impulses and cushions the shock loads generated during abrupt clutch engagement. This damper significantly reduces gear rattle at idle, extends transmission synchronizer life, and protects the differential and axle shafts from fatigue stress accumulation over thousands of operating hours.

Suitable for Heli CPCD10-CPCD50, Hangcha CPCD10-CPCD50, TCM FD10-FD50, Toyota 7FG/7FD series, Komatsu FG/FD series, Lonking LG10D-LG50D, and most other Asian and global-manufactured 1-5 ton IC forklifts. Available in multiple spline counts, hub diameters, and facing outer diameters to match specific transmission requirements — please specify your forklift model, transmission type, and existing clutch disc measurements (spline count, outer diameter, hub bore) when ordering to ensure correct fitment. Always replace the clutch disc together with the pressure plate, release bearing, and pilot bearing as a complete set; resurface or replace the flywheel if heat-checked or grooved; and use a clutch alignment tool during installation.
