Description
When you’re backing up to position a loaded bucket or shuttling between forward and reverse in the field, that reverse clutch plate in your brake housing is working overtime. If you’ve noticed delayed engagement, grinding noises, or that frustrating moment when reverse just won’t grab properly, it’s likely this intermediate plate that’s worn out. This little component plays a crucial role in smooth direction changes, especially when you’re doing precision work around the farmyard.
What You’re Getting
- Intermediate friction plate specifically designed for reverse gear operation
- High-quality friction material bonded to steel core for reliable engagement
- Heat-resistant construction that handles the constant cycling of direction changes
- Engineered to provide smooth engagement without harsh grabbing or slipping
Built for Real Farm Work
This plate fits the workhorses of many farm operations – John Deere 6000 and 7000 series tractors that spend their days moving between forward and reverse. Whether you’re stacking bales, cleaning pens with a loader, or doing precision planting work, these tractors need reliable reverse engagement. A worn clutch plate makes these everyday tasks frustrating and can even be dangerous when you need immediate reverse response.
Made to Last
The friction material is engineered to handle the heat and pressure of constant engagement without glazing over or wearing prematurely. The steel core provides the durability needed for thousands of direction changes while maintaining proper thickness for consistent performance throughout its service life.
Installation Notes
This is typically a split-the-tractor job, so plan accordingly with proper stands and a clean workspace. While you have access, check all clutch plates since they often wear at similar rates. Soak new friction plates in hydraulic fluid for at least 30 minutes before assembly, and pay careful attention to the stacking order during installation.
