PIN, CLUTCH DOG

$2.44

Description

Function: The pin for the clutch dog serves as a pivot point or axis around which the clutch dog rotates to engage or disengage gears. It allows for the controlled movement of the clutch dog within the gearbox assembly, facilitating smooth and precise shifting of gears.
Design: Typically, the pin is a cylindrical shaft made from durable and corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel or hardened alloy steel. It is designed to withstand the forces and wear associated with repeated engagement and disengagement of gears. The pin’s dimensions and tolerance are carefully engineered to ensure proper fit and alignment within the gearbox assembly.
Installation: Installing the pin for the clutch dog involves inserting it into corresponding holes or bushings within the gearbox housing, where it serves as the axis of rotation for the clutch dog. Care must be taken to ensure proper alignment and clearance to allow for unrestricted movement of the clutch dog during gear shifting operations.
Maintenance: Regular inspection and maintenance of the pin and associated components are essential to ensure smooth and reliable operation of the propulsion system. This may include checking for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage on the pin and lubricating it periodically to reduce friction and prevent premature wear.
