Description

When your clutch starts making grinding noises, feeling spongy underfoot, or won’t fully disengage when you press the pedal, there’s a good chance your release bearing is calling it quits. This little workhorse sits between your clutch fork and pressure plate fingers, spinning constantly whenever the clutch pedal is pressed. When it fails, you’ll know it – gear changes become a wrestling match and you might even get stuck unable to shift at all, usually right when you’ve got a field to finish.

Exact 65mm inner diameter, 101.4mm outer diameter, and 21.5mm width to match OEM specs perfectly
Sealed construction keeps dirt and moisture out while keeping lubricant in where it belongs
Direct replacement – no modifications or special tools needed for installation

Built for Real Farm Work

This bearing serves Case IH’s reliable 33, 40, and 80 series tractors that handle everything from loader work to field operations. Whether you’re running a 433 on chores, a 740 pulling implements, or an 383 handling general farm duties, these tractors depend on smooth clutch operation for safe gear changes and proper power transmission to get work done efficiently.

Made to Last

Farm work is hard on clutch components, and this bearing is built to handle the demanding cycles of agricultural use. The sealed design prevents contamination that commonly destroys bearings in dusty field conditions, while the precision construction ensures smooth operation season after season. Quality materials and manufacturing mean you won’t be doing this job again anytime soon.

Installation Notes

This is typically a transmission-out repair since you’ll need access to the clutch assembly. While you’re in there, it’s smart to inspect the clutch fork and apply fresh grease to all contact points. If your clutch disc or pressure plate are showing wear, now’s the time to replace everything together – don’t let a worn component destroy your new bearing.
