NOW INCLUDES KIT SPECIFIC RELEASE BEARING
A Direct fit to your existing flywheel, or a new genuine flywheel.
SACHS Performance clutch kit delivers more transmittable torque and more stability, offering longer life and superior thermal resistance.
Ideal for Tuned Performance Vehicles.
Organic Friction Plate:
With the Special Organic Friction plate, the start performance is similar to your old original clutch kit (no on-off clutch), so this solution is also perfect for a daily driven car.
Higher clamping pressure is provided by the uprated pressure plate, which when combined with the Organic Friction plate; this clutch kit is an ideal upgrade for modified engines where better torque handling of the clutch is required.
Sintered Paddle Friction Plate:
The SACHS Performance Sintered Paddle Friction option contains a Multi-Puck Sintered Cera-metallic Friction Disc.
Sintered Paddle friction plates have a much higher friction coefficient than their Organic counterparts. This allows for higher transmittable torque however they are usually not recommended for day-to-day use.
Higher clamping pressure is provided by the uprated pressure plate, which when combined with the Sintered Paddle Friction plate; this clutch kit is an ideal upgrade for highly tuned engines where much higher torque handling of the clutch is required.
Please note: Due to Reinforced materials and components the pedal force can increase and the modulation range reduced giving an “on-off” feel to the clutch.
These are a motorsport style of the clutch, so you do need to expect some level of compromise with the judder on take-off and can produce additional noises from the clutch and transmission.
