McLeod 1270 MLR Mechanical Lever Release Throw Out Bearing

The McLeod 1270 is a Mechanical Lever Release (MLR) Throw Out Bearing designed for high-performance clutch applications. McLeod Racing is a renowned manufacturer of performance clutch systems, flywheels, and drivetrain components, and their throw out bearings are engineered to deliver reliable, consistent clutch engagement under demanding conditions.

A throw out bearing (also known as a release bearing) is a critical component of the manual transmission clutch system. It contacts the clutch pressure plate fingers during pedal actuation, disengaging the clutch so gear changes can occur smoothly. The MLR (Mechanical Lever Release) design is intended for use with specific clutch fork and bellhousing configurations that use a conventional mechanical linkage or cable actuation system.

Key Features:

• Mechanical Lever Release (MLR) design for compatibility with fork-style clutch actuation systems
• Engineered to McLeod's high-performance manufacturing standards for durability and precise engagement
• Smooth, consistent operation designed to reduce clutch pedal effort and noise
• Compatible with McLeod performance clutch systems and select OEM-style applications
• Built to withstand elevated heat and load cycles common in performance and racing environments

The McLeod 1270 throw out bearing is an ideal replacement or upgrade component for enthusiasts building or restoring a performance drivetrain. Always verify compatibility with your specific clutch assembly, bellhousing, and fork configuration before installation.
