There’s nothing quite like the sinking feeling you get when your clutch starts making grinding noises or won’t shift smoothly right in the middle of planting season. Most of the time, it’s this little bearing that’s causing all the trouble. The spigot shaft bearing sits right in the center of your flywheel, supporting the transmission input shaft so it can spin freely when the clutch is disengaged. When it goes bad, you’ll know it.
What You’re Getting
- Universal 17x40x12mm bearing that fits multiple tractor brands including Massey Ferguson, Ford, Case, and Deutz
- Double-sealed design keeps clutch dust and debris out while holding lubricant in
- Heavy-duty construction built to handle the constant cycling and loads of farm work
- Direct replacement for worn original bearings – no modifications needed
- Quality construction that’ll last through years of field work and frequent gear changes
Built for Real Farm Work
This bearing works in utility tractors used for loader work, row-crop machines for planting and cultivating, and everything in between. Whether you’re running a Massey Ferguson doing hay work, a Ford on the loader, or a Case pulling tillage equipment, this bearing ensures your clutch engages cleanly and your transmission shifts like it should.
Made to Last
Farm equipment bearings take a beating from dust, vibration, and constant use. This sealed bearing is built specifically for clutch applications where contamination is a constant threat. The seals keep the grease where it belongs and the dirt where it doesn’t belong, so you get reliable operation season after season.
Good to Know
You’ll need to split the tractor to replace this bearing – it’s located in the center of the flywheel where the transmission input shaft enters. While you’re in there, it’s smart to check your clutch components and replace anything that’s showing wear. Don’t wait until you hear grinding – replace this bearing during scheduled clutch service to avoid getting stuck in the field when there’s work to do.
