Construction & Design

The Stage 3 clutch kit features a segmented Kevlar disc that offers a perfect balance between holding power and smooth engagement. Kevlar’s natural durability and heat resistance contribute to longer clutch life and consistent performance under demanding conditions. The steel backing plate adds structural integrity, ensuring the disc maintains its shape and friction characteristics over time.

The pressure plate is reinforced and designed with a hi-leverage pressure ring, which optimizes clamping force while keeping pedal effort manageable. The sprung hub and cushioned disc design help absorb drivetrain shocks, reducing wear on transmission components and improving overall drivability. The included aluminum flywheel reduces weight compared to the stock steel flywheel, enhancing engine response and acceleration.
