What is the primary benefit of a twin disc clutch over a single disc clutch?

A twin disc clutch has two friction surfaces instead of one, which significantly increases its torque holding capacity and improves its ability to dissipate heat. This makes it ideal for high-horsepower and high-torque applications where a single disc clutch might slip or overheat.

What is the advantage of an aluminum flywheel?

Aluminum flywheels are considerably lighter than stock steel flywheels. This reduced rotational mass allows the engine to rev up and down more quickly, leading to improved throttle response and a more agile feel during acceleration and deceleration.

Does this kit include everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the twin disc clutch assembly, an aluminum flywheel, and the necessary hardware for installation. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for a complete list of required tools and any additional components that may be needed for your specific vehicle.

About this part

Product Details

This Clutch Masters FX850 strapped twin disc clutch kit comes complete with the necessary components for a high-performance upgrade. Inside the box, you'll find the twin disc clutch assembly, an aluminum flywheel, and the necessary hardware to get it installed. This kit is specifically designed for the 2003-2006 BMW E90 335i models equipped with the 3.0L engine, offering a robust solution for drivers who demand more from their drivetrain.

The FX850 series from Clutch Masters is built to handle significant increases in torque and horsepower, making it a popular choice for modified vehicles. The twin disc design offers a larger friction surface area compared to a single disc setup, which helps dissipate heat more effectively and allows for a higher torque capacity. This is crucial for maintaining clutch performance under aggressive driving conditions or when the engine has been significantly upgraded. The included aluminum flywheel is lighter than a stock steel unit, which can improve engine response and allow the engine to rev more freely. Clutch Masters uses a strapped design for this clutch, meaning the pressure plate is bolted directly to the flywheel, which is a strong and reliable method for high-performance applications.

When installing a twin disc clutch like this, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, as the setup can be more involved than a standard single disc clutch. Proper alignment and torque specifications are critical for ensuring smooth operation and longevity. This kit is a substantial upgrade for the BMW E90 335i, providing the holding power needed for serious performance builds.
