Description
When your batwing mower starts chattering or the wings aren’t engaging smoothly, a worn friction clutch is usually the culprit. This I-type friction clutch keeps your wing drives running smoothly by allowing controlled slip when they hit obstacles while still transferring full power during normal cutting. The double clamp design means it locks tight on your driveline shaft and won’t work loose during operation.
What You’re Getting
- Double clamp design grips the shaft securely without slipping or loosening
- 1-3/4 inch bore with 20 splines for direct replacement on most wing drive systems
- Friction disc construction allows controlled slip to protect expensive driveline components
- Built to handle the constant torque changes that come with mowing uneven terrain
Built for Real Farm Work
This clutch is designed for the demanding job of powering batwing mower wing sections. Whether you’re cutting highway right-of-way, maintaining pastures, or brush-hogging fence lines, wing drives take a beating from rocks, stumps, and thick vegetation. The friction design lets the wings absorb impacts without transferring shock loads back through your driveline to the tractor.
Made to Last
Agricultural friction clutches need to handle years of slip-and-grip cycles while dealing with dirt, moisture, and temperature extremes. This clutch uses friction materials that maintain their grip characteristics even when contaminated with grass clippings and field debris. The steel construction resists wear from constant engagement and disengagement.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward—slide it onto the shaft and tighten the double clamp bolts evenly. Check that the clutch isn’t over-tightened, as too much clamping force reduces the slip protection that prevents driveline damage. A quick spray of penetrating oil on the threads before installation makes future removal easier.
