What is a clutch pressure plate?

The pressure plate is part of your clutch assembly. It presses the clutch disc against the flywheel to transfer power. When worn, it can cause the clutch to slip.

What does increased clamp load mean for my car?

Higher clamp load means the pressure plate holds the clutch disc more firmly against the flywheel. This helps prevent clutch slippage, especially under hard acceleration or when using a performance clutch disc.

Do I need to use a specific type of clutch disc with this pressure plate?

ACT recommends using this MaXX Xtreme pressure plate with a race disc. Using a standard clutch disc might result in a very stiff pedal feel and premature wear.
