What else is in the Aisin range?

Clutch Slave Cylinder​ Clutch slave cylinders are located near the clutch assembly. Depressing the clutch pedal in a hydraulic system sends fluid from the master cylinder to a slave cylinder, where a piston and rod move the clutch-release lever. Usually replaced when unable to engage / disengage clutch or when leaks occur.

Concentric Slave Cylinders​ AISIN’s Concentric Slave Cylinder (CSC) reduces the force necessary to use the clutch pedal, so less leg effort is needed to disconnect the clutch. This in turn reduces the friction on the components, leading to an increased parts lifetime. As well as a better feel with the clutch pedal and easier operation, AISIN’s CSC also reduces the chances of engine stall while the driver is changing gears.
