Re-Gluing clutch facing on C2 inner drum Deere 4630 PST

Well-known Member
How are you regluing the facing that seems to have some sort of "high-tack sealant", to the inside of the drum in a Deere 4630 powershift (many others are same)? I assume that there is a suitable glue and process to be used. Is it available from Deere?

Thanks,
Fdt

Here is a picture I found on internet to explain better:

As Don stated toss it,, and the lining you are looking at is for a thrust surface, not a clutch surface.
 
Thanks for the inputs.
Major issue I have with tossing it away is cost of $520 for something that has just glue issue.

If this is a thrust face, shear force on the glue should be nothing, so I really don't want to spent $520 instead of $20 for glue.
 

How much would it cost on time and money to tear the tractor apart again. when the ripe crop is still in the field and storms are in the forecast .
 
It will cost mostly time.
I do not like the throw away world we live in. This was glued by mens in 1976. I believe I can find better glue in 2017 and glue again 2 perfectly fine pieces together and have it last 40 more years.
 

I'm not qualified to comment on whether re-gluing is a good idea, but you sound serious about doing this--

If I were looking at this job I would talk to a place that offers rebuilding of bonded brake linings. In my area,
www.capitolclutch.com is one such place. Not sure if they have shops like this where you are (France?) but if so they would have the adhesive and the equipment.
 
Find somebody that refaces clutches and brakes
and ask them or have them do it if it?s possible
they?d be the ones my guess is the right adhesive
won?t be much cheaper than the new part and you
can thank the throw away world we live in for that
 
I'm gonna go out on a limb here, with a GUESS that the glue just keeps the fiber thrust washer in place during assembly, and it can't get out of it's groove and get into trouble (ASSUMING there's no excess endplay in the assembly) once it's all put together.

If you DO decide to re-glue it and can verify my thinking by observing endplay it would lessen the worry, should the glue fail to hold.

On my own "hobby" tractor, I'd probably take a chance, probably not on a customer's tractor or one of mine I planned to put thousands of hours of heavy use on.
 
I'm not super familiar with the power shift, haven't had to overhaul one yet. But if the thrust surface is only glued there for convenience of assembly and is captivated once assembled then using the age old trick of grease or auto trans assembly grease to hold it in place during assembly. If it were mine I'd would reuse.

If you are thinking of reglueing that washer I would get a new one, getting oil out of a pourous part is nearly impossible, it appears it is available separately as R76674 and is used on many newer machines.
