Stop clutch squeaks and play at the source with this heavy‑duty stainless release arm pivot. Designed as a direct replacement for the stock plastic ball stud, this precision CNC 303 stainless clutch lever pivot delivers long‑term reliability, crisp pedal feel and confidence under hard use. Ideal for road, fast‑road and track cars running standard or uprated pressure plates.

Powerflex’s PFF5-270 is the go‑to upgrade when refreshing the clutch, fixing a noisy pedal, or preparing for a performance clutch kit. Where plastic can wear, ovalise or even snap, this stainless pivot resists heat, corrosion and high clamp loads, giving you a fit‑and‑forget solution with a lifetime warranty.
