A727 A518 [62-UP] Automatic Transmission Rear Band Rigid Reverse Solid Gas

When reverse engagement becomes soft, slow, or disappears under load, the reverse band is often the first mechanical component to inspect, and this relined rigid band is the direct replacement for that worn part. This is a single relined solid band cut for the 6.25 inch drum found in A518, A618, A727, 46RE, 47RH, and 48RE automatic transmission units built from 1991 forward.

The band arrives relined, meaning the friction material has already been bonded to the rigid steel band body, so the technician installs it as a finished part without additional prep. The rigid solid construction maintains consistent geometry under apply pressure, which matters in these units because a band that flexes unevenly wears its lining faster and returns band adjustment problems sooner. This piece weighs 1.75 lb and is sized specifically for the 6.25 inch drum diameter used in gas engine configurations of these transmission families.

This listing is for the band alone. No discs, steels, Automatic Transmission Filter, gaskets, seals, or other components are included. If your repair calls for additional parts, those need to be sourced separately. Before placing an order, verify the unit code on the transmission matches one of the listed designations, confirm the drum measures 6.25 inches, and confirm the vehicle carries a gas engine. Diesel or larger drum variants take a different band and this one will not fit correctly in those applications.

REMCO has worked in automatic transmission parts since 1991, and each item leaves with a part list in the box so the technician can confirm what was shipped against what was ordered. That single step has saved more than a few unnecessary return trips to the parts counter.

• A relined rigid reverse band restores holding power in the reverse circuit, reducing slip and preventing delayed or absent reverse engagement in worn units.
• This listing covers the band only. It does not include clutch discs, steels, Automatic Transmission Filter, gaskets, solenoids, or any other component. Verify what else your repair needs before ordering.
• The rigid solid construction of this band suits gas engine applications using the 6.25 inch drum, matching the stock design spec for these transmission families.
• Single piece: one relined rigid reverse band, solid construction, rated for the 6.25 in drum. Item weight is 1.75 lb.
• Before ordering, confirm your unit code matches A518, A618, A727, 46RE, 47RH, or 48RE and that your application uses the 6.25 inch drum with a gas engine.
