[GreenKeys] CR clutch for Kleinshmidt/SCM311

[Clay Archer]

I did a head slap when I saw “gasket”, I should have thought of that!   Too much holiday food.    I’m going to try a local automotive store first.   It’s cheap enough  to experiment.   I will need to find an adhesive that will hold it, perhaps contact cement.

I’m sure Kleinschmidt put a lot of research and design into this clutch material and some gasket cork may not hold up or be too slick to work, but it’s worth a shot!

Check a good auto supply house, cork sheet is used for gaskets

Although it wouldn't hurt to look at the pre-cut pads, I am inclined to agree with Pete.  I would try McMaster.com or maybe MSC.  Search for Cork Gasket or Gasket Material or etc.

I would only use material that is designed or spec'ed for gaskets and clutch liner. Who know what is
in the "cork" used for the pads.

Hi...

Re: clutch pad material for the CR drum...

One source may be the "Dollar" stores, or equivalent as a possible replacement
for the clutch pads...They sell various size round cork pads, as "Feet" for
various decorative items, to prevent furniture scratching etc.

They usually come abt a dozen or so pieces in a pack...

Also, they are adhesive backed, so mite be an ideal choice for the CR clutch
pad issue...

Cheers!
