Clutch
Street / Strip Discs
Organic, spring center replacement disc designed
for smooth engagement, quiet operation and improved durability. We
manufacture the best for the application. Street ACT Clutch discs
can be used with moderate to heavy duty applications including racing
depending on torque output and heat. View our ACT Clutch
application chart for more information
on torque capacity. When a special ACT Performance Organic 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. If you
have questions about a certain ACT Clutch application
consult us. With all the hype about different lining materials available
we still contend that nothing can beat a good quality organic disc
for street use. A good example of this is the ACT Clutch Eclipse/Talon
AWD Turbo. This application can be especially hard on clutches because
of all wheel drive, the heavy weight of the car, and limited clutch
size. Yet because of the durability of the ACT Clutch Performance
Organic Street Disc, many of the fastest Eclipse/Talons owners enjoy
smooth engagement, 11 second and even 10 second timeslips. This same
ACT Clutch performance lining is available for several applications
where there is a particular need.Our ACT Clutch takes a lot of abuse
and yet engages smoothly.

Manufacturer
of Copper Ceramic Race Discs Xtreme Discs
Available
in 4 or 6 pad design. These pads (pucks, buttons) are highly durable
and resistant to heat. They actually perform better when hot! The
ACT copper ceramic material holds approximately 28% more torque than
an organic lining. Copper ceramic discs engage fairly harsh and are
not normally recommended for street use. The ACT Clutch high copper
content of the
manufactured 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 than
the 4 pad disc. ACT Clutch 4 pad discs engage harsher and shift faster.
They are well suited for smaller disc sizes from smaller engines.
We can provide any size 4 pad disc up to 240mm or 6 pad disc up to
250mm with the spline sizes listed below. Our application chart lists
only those racing discs used with our pressure plates although we
fit many other cars not listed on our chart. If you have any questions
regarding ACT Clutch Kit applications not listed, consult us.

ACT
Clutch Heavy Duty Pressure Plates
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
the manufacture the diaphragm.
Our ACT Clutch diaphragms are specially heat treated through an exclusive
3 stage process and then hardened on the 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 produce. No guesswork,
no hype, only proven engineering and calculated results.

ACT
Clutch Xtreme Pressure Plates
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 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 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".
