Clutch bell

The clutch bell is a vital component in a centrifugal clutch system, typically found in small engines and scooters. It serves as the outer casing that houses the clutch shoes and connects to the engine's crankshaft. As the engine RPM increases, the clutch bell rotates, allowing the clutch shoes to engage with it through centrifugal force. This engagement transfers power from the engine to the transmission, enabling smooth acceleration. The clutch bell's design and material are crucial for durability and efficient power transfer during operation.
