Organic Friction Material

Organic clutch material is a top choice for drivers seeking smooth, reliable performance for everyday use. Made from a blend of woven organic fibers and resin compounds, it offers excellent friction stability, making it ideal for street driving where comfort and longevity are priorities. Its consistent engagement and reduced noise make it particularly suited for daily drivers, light towing, and moderate performance applications where clutch feel matters.

Designed to handle moderate torque loads, organic clutch discs excel in standard driving conditions but may wear faster under extreme stress compared to performance-based materials. However, they remain a cost-effective and dependable option for drivers who prioritize comfort and balanced performance over extreme power handling.

Daily Clutch

The Daily clutch is tailored for everyday driving with a focus on comfort, smooth engagement, and longevity. Engineered for standard vehicles and mild performance builds, it offers a factory-like pedal feel while still providing slightly improved clamping force and heat resistance for light towing or minor modifications.

Perfect for daily drivers and light-duty vehicles, the Daily clutch balances performance and drivability, ensuring a comfortable experience in stop-and-go traffic. While not suited for extreme power handling, it is an excellent choice for drivers prioritizing reliability and ease of 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.

Full Face Disc Style

The full face clutch disc is designed for smooth engagement, even wear, and maximum surface contact with the pressure plate and flywheel. Covering the entire friction surface, this design provides excellent power transfer, making it ideal for daily drivers, light towing, and vehicles where comfort and longevity are top priorities. The increased surface area allows for better heat distribution, reducing the risk of premature wear.

Full face discs excel in standard and moderate performance applications, offering a balanced blend of drivability and durability. However, they may lack the aggressive grip required for extreme power handling compared to paddle-style discs, making them better suited for stock to lightly modified vehicles.

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.

Stage 2 Clutch

A Stage 2 clutch offers a significant performance boost compared to stock and Stage 1 setups. Designed with stronger friction materials like Kevlar or ceramic, it provides higher torque capacity and heat resistance. This stage is ideal for moderately modified vehicles, including turbocharged setups, nitrous systems, and track-ready builds needing enhanced grip and reduced slippage.

Although it offers increased power handling, Stage 2 clutches can introduce a slightly stiffer pedal feel and more aggressive engagement than Stage 1, making them better suited for drivers prioritizing performance while still requiring reasonable street drivability.
