Racing Clutch Components

No matter whether you tend to visit a racing track occasionally or plan on building a professional racer career, the stock powertrain configuration of your car will not cut it. Of course, you have considered engine and transmission upgrades to gain more horsepower and deliver it to the ground more efficiently, but it would not be possible without a clutch, a special assembly that links these two stages together. A typical dry clutch in a vehicle equipped with a manual gearbox consists of a pressure plate, a clutch disk, and a flywheel. Plates and flywheels have special friction surfaces, while clutch disks have friction material on both sides.

The flywheel and pressure plate always rotate with the crankshaft. The disk is splined to the input shaft of the gearbox. The rotation is transferred when the plate presses the disk to the flywheel. The gradual transfer of engine power to the gearbox is achieved through gradual depression on the clutch pedal by the driver. When the pedal is pressed only partially, the disk slips on friction surfaces of the flywheel and pressure plate. Since racing applications demand better efficiency while often sacrificing comfort, racing clutch disks feature advanced ceramic or metal friction materials to minimize slipping as well as increase consistency and durability.

If you've come across this page, you are probably looking for premium-quality racing clutch components, which means you have come to the right place. Our products are designed to provide the most efficient clutch operation without increasing the driver’s efforts on pressing the pedal. To win the race, you need to put the engine power to the ground as quickly as possible without wasting time on clutch slipping. Use our lightweight, durable, and reliable products with higher holding capacity when compared with their OEM style counterparts. And don’t forget about high-performance clutch linkages, including hydraulic release bearings, clutch lines, release forks, and so on.
