What is the main difference between a rigid disc and a sprung clutch disc?

A rigid clutch disc, like the one in this kit, has no springs in the center hub. This results in a very solid and immediate engagement. A sprung disc has springs that help absorb shock and vibration, offering a smoother, more comfortable engagement, often preferred for daily driving.

Does this clutch kit include everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the heavy duty pressure plate, the rigid FX100 clutch disc, and a release bearing. It's recommended to inspect and potentially replace your pilot bearing and flywheel at the time of clutch replacement, as these are typically not included in the kit.

What is the recommended break-in procedure for this clutch kit?

Clutch Masters recommends a break-in period for their clutch kits to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Typically, this involves a series of gentle accelerations and decelerations without hard launches or excessive slipping. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions included with the kit for the specific break-in procedure.

About this part

Product Details

Clutch Masters is well-known for making robust clutch components that can handle more power and stress than stock. This FX100 Heavy Duty Rigid Disc Clutch Kit is built for drivers who push their vehicles hard, whether that's through spirited driving or hauling heavier loads. It's designed to replace your original clutch assembly and offers a more direct engagement feel, making it a solid option for anyone looking to upgrade their drivetrain's performance and durability.

This kit features a rigid (non-spring centered) disc, which provides a very solid and immediate connection between the engine and transmission. This type of disc is often preferred for its crisp engagement and its ability to handle higher torque loads without slipping. The FX100 friction material is a popular choice for its balance of performance and longevity, offering a good grip without being overly grabby for daily driving. It's a well-built assembly intended to give you confidence in your clutch's ability to perform when you need it most.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, especially regarding break-in procedures. Proper break-in helps ensure the longevity and optimal performance of the new clutch disc and pressure plate. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for the factory clutch, meaning it should fit right into your existing setup without requiring major modifications, assuming your flywheel is in good condition and within spec.
