Positioned inside the manual transmission bellhousing assembly, its primary function is to actuate the clutch mechanism. When the driver presses the cabin clutch pedal, mechanical or hydraulic force forces this bearing to slide along the input shaft sleeve, pressing directly into the spinning diaphragm spring fingers of the clutch pressure plate. This physical contact relieves clamp pressure off the friction disc, disengaging the engine from the gearbox to allow for smooth, grind-free gear selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e SACHS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3151 802 003 \/ 3151802003\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Condition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent Classification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual Transmission Clutch Release Bearing (Throw-out bearing)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-hardened bearing steel alloy joined to a low-friction polymer slider sleeve guide for optimal thermal resistance under high-cycle workloads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLubrication Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Factory pre-sealed and packed with high-temperature, load-bearing synthetic grease (requires no maintenance over its operational lifespan)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVehicle Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis specific thrust-bearing layout is precision-dimensioned to match the manual clutch release frameworks of small, mid-size, and commercial passenger cars across European Ford, Mazda, and Volvo platforms from the late 1990s through the late 2010s:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eCar Model\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eCompatible Engines \/ Variants\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eTransmission \/ Layout\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eYear of Manufacture\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFord Focus I (DAW, DBW) \/ II (DA_, HCP, DP) \/ III\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.4 16V \/ 1.6 16V \/ 1.8 16V \/ 2.0 16V \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e(Paired with Ford IB5 \u0026amp; MTX75 manual gearboxes)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e5 \u0026amp; 6-Speed Manual\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1998 - 2018\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFord Fiesta IV \/ V \/ VI (JA8, JR8)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.25 16V \/ 1.3 \/ 1.4 16V \/ 1.6 Ti-VCT \/ 1.4 TDCi\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eStandard Manual platforms\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1995 - 2017\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMazda 3 (BK) \/ 2 (DY)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.25 \/ 1.4 \/ 1.6 MZR Petrol variants \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e(Joint venture shared Ford architecture platforms)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e5-Speed Manual\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2003 - 2009\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVolvo C30 (533) \/ S40 II (544) \/ V50 (545)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.6 Petrol \/ 1.8 \/ 2.0 FlexFuel\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eStandard Manual setups\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2004 - 2012\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e⚠️ \u003cstrong\u003eClutch Actuation Configuration Warning:\u003c\/strong\u003e This standalone release bearing is designed strictly for vehicle configurations utilizing an external mechanical slave cylinder operating a \u003cstrong\u003etraditional pivot fork setup\u003c\/strong\u003e.
