Key Features:

The ACT 6-Puck Xtreme Clutch Kit incorporates cutting-edge design and materials to provide superior performance and reliability:

• Torque capacity rated up to 500 ft/lbs, suitable for high-performance applications
• 61% increase in clamping force compared to stock for improved power transfer
• Includes ACT’s Xtreme pressure plate featuring an exclusive diaphragm design for increased clamp load and reduced deflection
• 6-puck sprung hub disc made with premium copper ceramic friction material for enhanced heat absorption and durability
• Chrome-moly hub is heat-treated to withstand high stress and provide long-lasting strength
• Rigid disc design enables faster, more precise shifts with a moderately stiff pedal feel
• Pressure plate undergoes a four-stage heat-treating process to ensure consistent performance and extended clutch life
• Precision cover stampings add rigidity and maintain consistent clamp load throughout use
• Recommended for larger clutch sizes and aggressive driving styles requiring superior heat management

Construction & Design:

The ACT 6-Puck Xtreme Clutch Kit is crafted with high-grade materials and advanced engineering to meet the demands of performance driving. The Xtreme pressure plate utilizes a unique diaphragm spring design that increases clamp load by up to 120% over stock, while minimizing deflection for consistent engagement. This pressure plate is heat-treated through a rigorous four-stage process, enhancing durability and resistance to warping under extreme conditions.

The 6-puck disc features a solid hub design with a sprung hub to reduce drivetrain shock and improve engagement smoothness. Its copper ceramic friction material offers approximately 28% more torque capacity and superior heat absorption compared to organic discs, making it ideal for aggressive driving and racing environments. The chrome-moly hub is heat-treated to resist wear and maintain structural integrity, ensuring reliable performance over time.

Performance & Sound

This clutch kit delivers a more aggressive engagement than stock, resulting in quicker, more precise shifts that enhance driving responsiveness. The 6-puck rigid race disc design produces a moderate to heavy pedal effort and a distinct engagement feel favored by performance enthusiasts. While gear rattle may increase slightly due to the solid hub design, the trade-off is improved heat management and clutch longevity under high-stress conditions.

Installation & Fitment:

The ACT 6-Puck Xtreme Clutch Kit is a direct fit replacement for the 2005 to August 2006 Scion tC models, designed to install using factory mounting points and hardware. Installation requires standard clutch replacement procedures and may be best performed by a professional or experienced technician to ensure proper alignment and operation. No major modifications are necessary, but it is recommended to inspect the flywheel and related components during installation for optimal performance.

What's Included:

• ACT 6-Puck Sprung Hub Disc (Solid Hub)
