Overhaul Plate Kit for Twin Disc MG-516

What this part is
A complete clutch-pack refresh engineered specifically for the Twin Disc MG-516. It restores clean, predictable engagement and dependable torque transfer by renewing the friction interface and steel mating surfaces inside the MG-516 clutch assemblies.

What it includes

• Friction plates matched to MG-516 control pressures and thermal loads.
  
  

• Steel separator plates precision-ground for flatness and parallelism to prevent hot spots.
  
  

• Setup guidance to achieve the correct clutch pack height and stack order.
  
  

• Assembly aids (where applicable) to streamline staging, indexing, and pre-lube.
  
  

What it fixes

• Slipping under load when shifting ahead or astern.
  
  

• Harsh, delayed, or double-bump engagement from worn or glazed plates.
  
  

• Burnt odor or dark debris in oil indicating overheated clutches.
  
  

• Inconsistent maneuvering control in docking or tight quarters.
  
  

Signs you likely need this kit

• RPM flares without proportional vessel movement on engagement.
  
  

• Shudder on pickup or “grab–release–grab” at low throttle.
  
  

• Elevated gearbox temperature after frequent maneuvering.
  
  

• Metallic or fibrous residue caught in the strainer soon after service.
  
  

Installation highlights

• Measure as-found pack height before teardown; document counts and clearances.
  
  

• Dry-stage the stack to verify order and quantity; then pre-lube all plates.
  
  

• Check steels for warp or bluing; replace as needed.
  
  

• Torque carrier hardware to spec in a cross pattern; verify runout.
  
  

• Warm no-load run-in, followed by progressive load checks; recheck oil and for leaks.
  
  

Why buy this MG-516 overhaul kit from Diesel Pro Power

• MG-516–specific curation ensures plate materials and steel thicknesses align with MG-516 control pressures and target pack height.
  
  

• Technician-first documentation helps your crew hit stack height quickly and consistently.
  
  

• System thinking: paired guidance with seals, filtration, and mounts to prevent rework.
  
  

Gasket & Seal Kit for Twin Disc MG-516

What this part is
A complete reseal solution tailored to the MG-516 case, covers, shafts, and service ports. It eliminates weeping, stabilizes hydraulic pressure, and protects fresh clutch work from contamination.

What it includes

• Form-fit case and cover gaskets for MG-516 inspection and service plates.
  
  

• Lip seals and O-rings for input/output shafts and control interfaces.
  
  

• Crush washers (where applicable) for ports and plugs to ensure proper seating.
  
  

What it fixes

• Chronic oil film or misting around covers and perimeters.
  
  

• Aeration/foaming due to air ingress at tired seals.
  
  

• Control pressure instability from internal leakage paths.
  
  

• Messy bilge and contamination risks that shorten clutch life.
  
  

Signs you likely need this kit

• Repeat top-offs with no obvious drips, suggesting seepage.
  
  

• Dampness at selector cover, inspection plates, or shaft exits.
  
  

• Fresh oil smears returning shortly after sea trials.
  
  

Installation highlights

• Thoroughly clean mating faces; avoid gouging aluminum surfaces.
  
  

• Lightly oil seal lips and use guide sleeves over splines to prevent nicks.
  
  

• Seat and torque port fittings on clean, burr-free faces; confirm crush washer conformity.
  
  

• Run test and reinspect perimeters and rotating shafts for early leak detection.
  
  

Why buy this MG-516 gasket & seal kit from Diesel Pro Power

• Exact MG-516 profiles and diameters reduce fitment guesswork.
  
  

• Marine-ready elastomers chosen for MG-516 temperature and oil chemistry.
  
  

• One-and-done reseal bundles help you finish in a single maintenance window.
  
  

Rubber Block (Mount Isolator) for Twin Disc MG-516 Installations

What this part is
A vibration-damping isolator that supports and stabilizes the MG-516 and adjacent drivetrain components. Correct isolation reduces shock transfer to the hull, protects seals and bearings, and helps alignment hold over time.

What it includes

• Marine-grade elastomer element designed for combined compression and shear loads.
  
  

• Bonded/captured interfaces (design varies) for secure mounting and repeatable preload.
  
  

What it fixes

• Persistent vibration at cruise or certain RPM bands.
  
  

• Alignment drift that returns after seemingly perfect shaft alignment.
  
  

• Premature wear on couplings, seals, and bearings from rigid mounting.
  
  

• Structure-borne noise traveling through stringers or hull frames.
  
  

Signs you likely need this part

• Compression set, cracks, or delamination visible on existing mounts.
  
  

• Noticeable bump/knock when shifting from neutral into gear.
  
  

• Vibration worsens under load but eases off-throttle.
  
  

Installation highlights

• Replace in matched sets to maintain equal support height and stiffness.
  
  

• Re-align engine and gear after mount work; verify coupling face and bore readings.
  
  

• Re-torque after initial operating hours as the elastomer settles.
  
  

Why buy these MG-516 mounts from Diesel Pro Power

• Load-rated options selected for MG-516 support geometry and thrust reactions.
  
  

• Alignment-centered guidance helps protect new seals and clutches from vibration-related damage.
  
  

• Convenient pairing with overhaul and reseal items to minimize downtime.
  
  

MG-516 Symptom-to-Parts Quick Guide

Slipping or delayed engagement — Start with the Overhaul Plate Kit, then service the oil strainer and verify control pressure.
Recurring oil film or misting — Install the Gasket & Seal Kit; check vents and mating surfaces.
Chatter or driveline vibration — Replace Rubber Blocks, confirm alignment; inspect coupling condition.
Low/erratic pressure alarms — Clean/replace the oil strainer (and reseal if needed) to stabilize flow.
Alignment won’t hold — New Rubber Blocks, re-shim, and re-verify coupling face/bore readings.

MG-516 Selection & Ordering Checklist

Confirm the gear: Verify MG-516 on the data plate (model and ratio).
Match symptoms to parts:

• Slipping/heat → Overhaul Plate Kit + strainer service.
  
  

• Weeping/aeration → Gasket & Seal Kit.
  
  

• Vibration/chatter → Rubber Blocks + alignment check.
  
  

• Pressure alarms/debris → Oil strainer cleaning or replacement.
  Stage everything together: Order interdependent items as a bundle to minimize repeat haul-outs.
  Aftercare: Early oil and strainer service after initial operating hours post-repair.
