Clutch Repairs

KL-0500-45 KA Clutch Tool Set (SAC), in a Plastic Storage Case (Pat.)

Suitable for Self-Adjusting Clutches (with 6 and 8 bolt holes);
e.g. on VW-Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Volvo, Opel/Vauxhall, Renault etc.
The KL-0500-45 KA clutch tool set is indispensable for the professional
removal and installation of Self-Adjusting Clutches (SAC).
Correct removal and installation of this type of clutch is virtually impossible
without the use of our tool set. Using the wrong tool risks damaging or
distorting the clutch. This will result in incorrect separation or ‚grabbing‘ of
the clutch. Distorted or incorrectly mounted clutches are defective and must
always be replaced.
The KL-0500-45 KA tool set prevents damage to the SAC when removing
and installing it. Also, the risk of distorting the adjuster ring in the clutch
pressure plate is eliminated using this tool.
The newly developed clutch aligner KL-0500-405 enables clutch discs to be
centred also on vehicles that do not feature a pilot bearing in the crankshaft.
The two clamping-/centring elements ensure, on the first clamping element
(Ø 15-28mm) the accurate centring in the clutch disc, and on the second
element (Ø 12-28mm) the accurate centring in the pilot bearing, respectively
the crankshaft bore.
Even clutches on engines where the crankshaft bore Ø is greater than the
clutch disc hub Ø can be aligned neatly and accurately thanks to this tool.
