When your Dexta starts slipping under load or grinding when you shift, it’s time to face facts – that old clutch disc has given all it’s got. These compact 35-40 HP workhorses depend on a solid connection between the engine and transmission, and when that disc wears out, you’re not getting the power to the ground where you need it most.
What You’re Getting
- 9-inch diameter gives you the right amount of friction surface for Dexta power levels
- 1-inch hub with 15 splines matches your input shaft perfectly – no guessing or modifications
- Quality friction material grips without being grabby, so you get smooth engagement
- Spring-loaded hub dampens the shock when you engage, protecting your drivetrain
- Direct replacement for both regular Dexta and Super Dexta models
Built for Real Farm Work
Your Fordson Dexta might be getting up in years, but these tractors are still perfect for smaller operations where reliability matters more than fancy features. Whether you’re running a bush hog, pulling a hay rake, or handling loader work around the farmyard, that clutch disc is what transfers every bit of your Perkins engine’s torque to get the job done.
Made to Last
This isn’t some cheap aftermarket disc that’ll have you splitting the tractor again next year. The friction material is formulated to handle heat without glazing over, and the spring hub keeps working even after thousands of clutch cycles. It’s built to match the original specs that kept these tractors running for decades.
Good to Know
Replacing a clutch means splitting your tractor between the engine and transmission – plan on a full day if you’re doing it yourself. While you’re in there, check that flywheel surface for heat cracks and make sure your pressure plate fingers are even. If you’ve got oil contamination, find that leak before you button everything back up. A little grease on the input shaft splines helps with installation, but keep it light.
