1. Product Description
The FEBI BILSTEIN Clutch release bearing (07376) is a premium transmission component engineered by Febi Bilstein, a world-leading German manufacturer of original equipment quality drivetrain and chassis components. This mechanical release bearing (also known as a throw-out bearing) forms the critical bridge between the manual clutch actuation system and the spinning pressure plate. Manufactured to precise dimensions using high-tensile hardened steel and heat-resistant internal grease, it guarantees low-friction operations, smooth clutch pedal engagement, and highly reliable separation cycles over an extended service lifespan.
