Tri-Lite Release Bearing 1.850in

The Quarter Master Tri-Lite Release Bearing 1.850in is a precision hydraulic throw-out bearing engineered for high-performance manual transmission systems in racing, off-road, and tactical vehicle platforms. This bolt-on assembly replaces worn or stock clutch release mechanisms, restoring smooth, reliable pedal engagement and reducing clutch chatter during rapid gear transitions. Built to Quarter Master's specifications, this bearing serves as the critical interface between the hydraulic slave cylinder and the pressure plate, making it essential for operators who demand consistent clutch feel under demanding conditions.

The 1.85-inch piston design delivers balanced hydraulic pressure distribution with minimal lag, while the braided stainless steel lines provide corrosion resistance and pressure integrity in harsh environments—critical for vehicles exposed to salt spray, mud, or prolonged storage. The compact 3.00-inch overall length accommodates tight bellhousing configurations without sacrificing contact surface or bearing life. The Tri-Lite design reduces weight while maintaining rigidity, and the bolt-on mounting system enables straightforward installation without extensive modifications to the clutch fork assembly or transmission tunnel.

This bearing is ideal for users maintaining classic muscle cars, vintage trucks, track-focused vehicles, and any manual transmission platform requiring OEM or superior-grade throw-out bearing replacement. Quarter Master's heritage in performance clutch systems ensures compatibility with standard 1.850-inch bore pressure plates and late-model hydraulic slave cylinders. Installation requires removal of the transmission and disassembly of the bellhousing; proper alignment and torque specification of the bolt mounting points are critical for avoiding premature wear and ensuring long service life in both street and competition use.
