Organic/Ceramic Multi-Friction Material
The organic/ceramic combo clutch material offers a perfect balance between smooth drivability and enhanced torque capacity. This hybrid design pairs an organic friction surface on one side for smooth engagement with a ceramic material on the other side for increased heat resistance and durability. This combination makes it ideal for performance street driving, moderate towing, and off-road applications where a mix of comfort and strength is needed.
By combining both materials, this clutch disc reduces chatter while offering improved torque handling compared to standard organic discs alone. It's a great choice for drivers seeking a versatile clutch capable of handling both daily driving and occasional high-performance use.

Endurance Clutch
The Endurance clutch is designed for long-lasting durability in demanding driving conditions. Built with heavy-duty materials such as Kevlar and ceramic composites, it offers excellent heat resistance and minimal wear over time. This clutch level is ideal for vehicles involved in long-distance towing, off-road endurance races, and high-mileage applications where reliability is critical.
Endurance clutches provide a moderate pedal feel while offering superior wear resistance compared to standard designs. Though slightly stiffer than a Daily clutch, the enhanced longevity makes it a preferred choice for vehicles regularly subjected to heavy loads and extended use.

Sprung Hub Style
The sprung hub clutch is a versatile design focused on balancing performance with drivability. It features a series of dampening springs integrated into the hub, which help absorb vibrations and reduce shock during clutch engagement. This design is ideal for daily drivers, street performance vehicles, and light towing, where smooth gear changes and reduced drivetrain stress are essential.
By minimizing shock transfer, the sprung hub clutch prolongs the life of other drivetrain components, making it a reliable option for vehicles needing both comfort and moderate power handling. While slightly less direct in power transfer than a solid hub, it offers a superior driving experience for most street and light performance applications.

Button Disc Style
The button clutch disc, also known as a puck-style disc, features small friction pads (or buttons) spaced around the disc rather than a full friction surface. This segmented design reduces rotating mass, improving throttle response and heat dissipation. It is commonly used in performance vehicles where quick power transfer and reduced clutch fade are essential.
While button discs offer improved power handling and reduced weight, they often result in a more aggressive clutch engagement with less modulation, making them better suited for racing, performance driving, and modified street vehicles rather than casual daily use.

Dual Disc
The dual disc clutch offers increased performance and power-handling capacity by utilizing two friction discs instead of one. This design effectively doubles the surface area for power transfer, allowing for greater torque capacity and improved heat dissipation. Dual disc setups are ideal for performance vehicles, heavy towing, and high-horsepower applications where a standard single disc may fall short.
Despite the enhanced power capacity, dual disc clutches can still provide smooth engagement when paired with a sprung hub design. They strike an excellent balance between performance and drivability, making them a preferred choice for modified street vehicles and diesel trucks requiring extra holding power.

Modified Pressure Plate
A modified pressure plate is engineered to deliver increased clamping force, enhancing torque capacity and overall clutch performance. This upgraded design often features reinforced components, heavier diaphragm springs, or altered fulcrum points to provide superior grip on the clutch disc. Ideal for high-performance vehicles, heavy towing, and racing applications, a modified pressure plate ensures reliable power transfer under extreme loads.
While modified pressure plates offer enhanced power handling, they often result in a stiffer clutch pedal feel due to the increased spring pressure. This trade-off is generally acceptable for performance-focused applications where power capacity is prioritized over everyday comfort.

Stage 3 Clutch
A Stage 3 clutch is built for high-performance and heavy-duty applications where aggressive power handling is required. Typically using ceramic or feramic materials, this clutch provides exceptional heat resistance and torque capacity, making it ideal for vehicles with significant power modifications, such as forced induction or high-horsepower diesel builds.
While Stage 3 clutches offer superior performance under load, they often result in a firmer pedal feel and more abrupt engagement, which may be challenging for casual driving. This stage is best suited for high-performance vehicles, drag racing, and extreme towing where maximum power transfer is crucial.
