About this part

Product Details

The Clutch Masters FX350 clutch kit is built with a sprung six-puck disc, a design that offers a good balance between holding power and street drivability. This kit is specifically put together for the 2.0T MK6 Volkswagen Golf R with a 6-speed manual transmission, offering a significant upgrade over the stock clutch for vehicles that see harder use or have had their power output increased. It’s rated to handle up to 400 ft-lbs of torque, making it a solid choice for enthusiasts looking for more grip without sacrificing too much comfort.

Inside this kit, you’ll find a steel flywheel, which is a durable and cost-effective option that mates well with the FX350 disc. The sprung hub design of the disc helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a more aggressive clutch, making it feel more connected and less jarring than an unsprung unit. This clutch is designed to be a direct replacement for your factory clutch, simplifying the installation process. Clutch Masters is known for producing well-built clutch components, and this FX350 kit continues that reputation with its focus on performance and reliability for demanding applications.

When installing this clutch kit, it’s important to follow the manufacturer’s recommended procedures carefully. This typically involves resurfacing or replacing the flywheel bolts and ensuring all mating surfaces are clean. While this kit is designed to fit directly, it's always a good idea to have a service manual handy for your specific Golf R model. This kit is a popular choice for those looking to upgrade their drivetrain’s capability, especially if the vehicle is used for track days or spirited driving where the stock clutch might start to slip.
