Organic, spring center replacement disc designed for smooth
engagement, quiet operation and improved durability. We offer
the best brands and type for the application. Some OE Street
Clutch discs can be used with moderate to heavy duty applications
including racing depending on torque output and heat. When a
Performance OrganicOE disc is available the suffix "S" will
appear in the disc part number. These discs use special performance
linings that are designed to withstand high heat and high RPM.
When the suffix "M" appears, the disc has been modified by reducing
the marcel enabling quicker action. With all the hype about
different lining materials available we still contend that nothing
can beat a good quality full face organic disc for street use.
This same clutch
performance lining is available for several applications where
there is a particular need.These
clutch discs take a lot
of abuse and yet engage smoothly.

These pads (pucks, buttons) are solidly mounted, highly durable
and resistant to heat. They actually perform better when hot!
The copper ceramic material holds approximately 32% more torque
than an organic lining. Copper ceramic discs engage fairly harsh
and are not normally recommended for street use. The high copper
content of the material helps to absorb heat and reduce the temperature
of the mating parts. Shifting is quick and sure due to the lightweight
rigid design. No worries about broken center sections or springs.
6 pad discs are recommended for larger sizes to absorb more heat
and for smoother engagement.

Great holding power, better 60ft & 1/4 mile times,
and long life are all benefits that come along with these plates.
What makes our ACT Clutch pressure plates the highest standard
of the industry? First, we start off with new ACT Clutch units.
We do not offer rebuilds (except for special circumstances or
warrantee work). Second, we increase the pressure the right
way: by changing the diaphragm. Our ACT Clutch diaphragms are
specially heat treated through an exclusive 3 stage process
and then hardened on the clutch release bearing contact area
to reduce wear. Third, we make sure that the pressure curve
and release travel of the unit is in the right working range.
Forth, we use proven assembly procedures that insures consistency
and precision. Finally, we accurately balance and test every
ACT
Clutch Kit we offer No guesswork, no
hype, only proven engineering and calculated results.

The maximum holding power available! Our solution: apply more
diaphragm pressure. With a less aggressive ACT Clutch street
disc, this makes a great combination for high HP street cars
that prefer smooth ACT engagement. For racing, combine our act
Xtreme Pressure Plate with our ACT Clutch Xtreme Disc for the
ultimate in torque capacity and durability. What makes these
ACT
Clutch units so unique is a radical
increase in pressure without altering the proper geometry or
stacking of diaphragms. The ACT Clutch result is maximum holding
pressure and long life, while maintaining good release clearance
for fast, clean shifting. This can only be done with a specially
engineered diaphragm. On some
ACT Clutch units, like the one
shown above, we actually include gusseting the cover to reduce
flex caused by the the high pressure. These ACT
Clutches are made with the same
high standard as our heavy duty pressure plates. You will find
these on many of the fastest cars on the track. How do they
feel? A little stiff, but smooth! ACT Clutch Xtreme Pressure
Plates can be identified throughout the application chart when
the pressure plate number is followed by a suffix "X".
