Clutch Release Bearings and Actuation Parts for Supercars and Performance Cars

The release bearing is the small part that lets a spinning clutch be disengaged by something that is not spinning. When the pedal goes down, or when a hydraulic actuator does the same job on an automated gearbox, the bearing presses on the diaphragm fingers of the clutch cover and lifts the clamp load off the disc. On many modern cars it is built into a concentric slave cylinder that sits around the gearbox input shaft, so the bearing and the hydraulic cylinder are one assembly buried inside the bellhousing. That is why it is always replaced with the clutch: the labour to reach it is the same, and a bearing that fails afterwards means doing the whole job twice. We supply release bearings and clutch actuation hardware for supercars and performance cars, and we deliver across Dubai and the UAE, to India, and worldwide.

What This Collection Covers

• Release and throwout bearings: conventional bearings that ride on a guide sleeve and are pushed by the release fork.
• Concentric slave cylinders: combined bearing and hydraulic slave assemblies that mount around the input shaft inside the bellhousing.
• Release forks and pivots: forks, pivot balls, clips and retainers for cars that use mechanical release linkage.
• Clutch slave and master cylinders: external hydraulic cylinders, seals and rebuild kits for the actuation circuit.
• Guide sleeves and bearing carriers: the sleeve the bearing runs on, which wears alongside it and is worth changing at the same time.
• Hydraulic lines and fittings: hoses, hard lines, banjo bolts and bleed hardware for the clutch circuit.
• Race and adjustable release bearings: heavy duty and height adjustable assemblies used with multi plate clutches in competition builds.

Why It Matters

This is a cheap part that causes expensive problems. A worn release bearing usually announces itself first as a rumble or whine that appears when the pedal is pressed and disappears when it is released. Left alone it can seize or break up, and because it sits against the cover fingers, a failure often damages the clutch it was working with. On cars with a concentric slave cylinder there is a second failure mode: the seal lets go, the circuit loses pressure, and the clutch stops disengaging properly, which strands the car. Because everything here lives inside the bellhousing, the sensible approach is to replace the bearing, and the guide sleeve or slave assembly where fitted, every time the clutch comes out. The part is inexpensive next to the labour of getting back in there.

How to Choose the Right Release Bearing

Start with the release design, because it decides everything else. Cars with a mechanical fork need a bearing plus a healthy fork, pivot and guide sleeve. Cars with a concentric slave cylinder need the correct combined assembly for the gearbox, and the height matters. Push type and pull type systems are not interchangeable. Then think about use. A road car is served well by the original specification part. A track car running a higher clamp load clutch puts more load through the release mechanism, so a heavy duty bearing and fresh hydraulics are worth specifying together. Multi plate race assemblies often need an adjustable or matched release bearing supplied with the clutch, not chosen separately. Fitment is car specific, so give us the car, the year, the exact variant, the gearbox type and the clutch you are fitting. WhatsApp us on +971 50 308 5760 or send us an inquiry and we will confirm the correct part.

Shipping and Availability

We deliver across Dubai and the UAE, to India, and worldwide. Common release bearings and slave cylinders are frequently in ready stock, while race and application specific assemblies are sourced to order. Lead times on sourced items are confirmed with you before payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cars do these release bearings fit?
They are matched to the gearbox and clutch. Send us the make, model, year, variant and gearbox type, and tell us whether the car uses a fork or a concentric slave cylinder if you know.

Do you ship outside the UAE?
Yes. We deliver across Dubai and the UAE, to India, and worldwide, with tracked shipping.

In stock or sourced to order?
Many are in ready stock. Competition and less common assemblies are sourced to order with the lead time confirmed in advance.

Are these genuine parts?
Yes. We supply genuine parts from established manufacturers, both original equipment quality bearings and hydraulics and recognised performance clutch specialists.

Do I need to change it with the clutch?
We strongly recommend it. The bearing sits inside the bellhousing, so replacing it during a clutch job costs very little on top, and a later failure means removing the gearbox again.

If the release part you need is not shown here, just ask. We can source almost any clutch release or actuation part for your car. WhatsApp us on +971 50 308 5760 or send us an inquiry with the part and the car it is for, and we will come back with a price and a lead time.
