FAQ
Does this PTO clutch replace Great Dane 180265?
Yes. This aftermarket clutch is offered as a replacement for Great Dane 180265 on supported applications. Match your original clutch number and physical configuration before ordering.
Does this replace Warner 5218-213 and 5218-65?
Yes, on the supported applications listed here. Warner identifies 5218-213 as the replacement for the earlier 5218-65.
Does this fit every Great Dane mower?
No. Great Dane mowers use several different PTO clutches. Confirm 180265 through your original clutch identification or the parts diagram for your exact mower model and serial number.
Why do some reference specifications list a 6.3-inch pulley?
Warner lists a 6.31-inch outside diameter for its 5218-213 clutch. The aftermarket unit offered here has a measured outside diameter of approximately 6.125 inches.
Outside diameter and the working diameter where the belt rides are different measurements. For belt speed, the critical measurement is that working diameter—not the outer flange edge. The belt groove and pulley alignment must also match the application. This aftermarket clutch is designed to replace the OEM and manufacturer part numbers listed here.
What bore size does this clutch use?
This clutch has a 1-1/8-inch crankshaft bore, also written as 1.125 inches. Match the bore and key arrangement to your original clutch.
Is this a reverse-mount clutch?
Yes. This replacement uses a reverse-mount configuration. Follow the mounting orientation and spacer arrangement specified for your mower. Product-photo orientation is not an installation diagram.
What belt should I use?
Use the OEM-specified belt for your exact mower and deck configuration. Supported applications use a 5/8-inch V-belt. Belt width, length, and profile must suit the complete drive system.
Can PTO Direct USA help confirm fitment?
Yes. We provide fitment support before and after purchase. Email support@ptodirectusa.com with your mower model, serial number, engine information, and original clutch number. Photos of the clutch label, bore, pulley, connector, and anti-rotation connection help us compare the installation.
