LUK 512005010 Cylinder – Slave

The LUK 512005010 is a high‑performance clutch slave cylinder, engineered to deliver precise hydraulic control for the clutch system in a wide range of Peugeot and Citroën vehicles. Its design focuses on durability, reliability, and seamless integration with OEM specifications.

Key Functional Characteristics

• Hydraulic Actuation: Converts fluid pressure into mechanical force to disengage or engage the clutch plate.
• Pressure Rating: Operates efficiently within the standard hydraulic system pressures of modern front‑wheel drive cars.
• Compact Construction: Fits the tight engine bay spaces typical of compact and subcompact models such as the Peugeot 207, 208, 301, Citroën C3, C4, DS3, and C-Elysée.
• Sealed Design: Features a robust seal system that prevents fluid leakage and protects internal components from contaminants.

Compatibility Overview

The cylinder is specifically calibrated for the following vehicle families:

• Peugeot: 207 (WA, WC), 208 I Schrägheck (CA, CC), 2008 Kombi (CU), 301, 307, and 208 Mk1.
• Citroën: C3 II (SC), C4 Cactus, DS3, C-Elysée, and C3 Mk2.
• Engine Types Covered: 1.0‑1.4 L petrol, 1.4‑1.6 L diesel, 1.6 L petrol, and various HDi configurations.

Installation Highlights

Installing the LUK 512005010 follows standard clutch system replacement procedures:

1. Disconnect the battery to ensure safety during hydraulic work.
2. Purge the hydraulic system to remove air bubbles that could impair performance.
3. Remove the old slave cylinder and replace it with the new unit, ensuring all mounting bolts are torqued to specification.
4. Re‑prime the clutch master cylinder and verify proper fluid levels before testing clutch engagement.

Performance Benefits

• Consistent Clutch Engagement: The precise hydraulic pressure control results in smoother gear shifts and reduced wear on clutch components.
• Long‑Term Reliability: Constructed with high‑grade materials, the cylinder resists corrosion and maintains performance over thousands of miles.
• Low Maintenance: The sealed design reduces the need for frequent fluid checks or seal replacements.

Quality Assurance & Compliance

The product is manufactured under strict quality control protocols, ensuring it meets or exceeds OEM specifications. It complies with European automotive standards and is free from SVHC substances, making it an environmentally responsible choice.
