43AN60 R & D Marine Damper Drive Plate.

Fitted between the engine and the gearbox input shaft, a damper drive plate is designed to transmit the engine power to the gearbox, whilst reducing transmitted gear noise and providing a cushioned drive when selecting gear. All R and D Damper Drive plates include a 'failsafe' design.

Also called the Driven Plate, Damper Plate or Clutch Plate, the 43AN60 Damper Drive Plate is from the R and D High Deflection element range. Common applications for the 43AN60 drive plate include SAE 6.5 flywheels mated to PRM80, PRM120, PRM150, TMC30, TMC40, TMC50, TMC60, Borgwarner 500, HBW5, HBW35, HBW50, HBW100, ZF5 or ZF 10 gearboxes.

R&D 43AN60 Drive Plate technical details:

- Spline: 10 teeth B10 x 23 x 29 DIN5464 (29mm diameter) for PRM, ZF, Hurth, Technodrive, Borgwarner 500, TMP gearboxes

- Diameter of back plate which bolts to the engine flywheel: 215.9mm (8.500")

- Back plate fixing holes: 6 x 8.1mm on 200mm PCD SAE6 1/2

- Maximum thickness of drive plate: 35mm (1.38")

Fitted with the softer type AN high deflection element for 270Nm 200 ft lb torque, providing a maximum deflection up to 30 degrees. This type of plate is especially suited to workboats with slow speed applications and pleasure boats. Note that this type of damper drive plate can only be fitted to rotate in the standard direction of rotation (anti-clockwise when looking at the flywheel) with the element facing the gearbox. These damper plates are also failsafe.
