What is the torque capacity of this Clutch Masters FX400 kit?

This Clutch Masters FX400 clutch kit is rated to handle up to 500 ft/lbs of torque. This makes it suitable for modified vehicles that produce more power than stock.

What is the difference between a 6-puck and a single-plate clutch disc?

A 6-puck disc has a more aggressive friction surface designed for higher torque applications, offering a more direct engagement. The sprung hub helps absorb some of the drivetrain shock, improving drivability compared to unsprung puck designs.

Do I need to resurface my flywheel when installing this clutch kit?

Yes, it is highly recommended to resurface or replace your flywheel when installing a new clutch kit. This ensures a flat mating surface for the clutch disc and pressure plate, which is crucial for proper engagement and longevity.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to upgrade the clutch on your 2015 or 2016 Volkswagen Golf R, especially if you're planning on adding more power or driving it hard, this Clutch Masters FX400 6-Puck Clutch Kit is a solid option. This kit is designed to handle significantly more torque than the stock clutch, making it a popular choice for enthusiasts who want a more robust drivetrain. The FX400 series is known for its ability to hold power while still offering a manageable pedal feel for daily driving.

This particular kit features a 6-puck sprung hub disc. The 6-puck design offers a larger friction surface area compared to a 4-puck, which helps with engagement and drivability, while the sprung hub absorbs some of the shock and vibration. Clutch Masters has engineered this kit to be capable of holding up to 500 ft/lbs of torque, which is a substantial increase over the factory specification. This makes it well-suited for modified Golf Rs that are pushing more boost or have other engine upgrades. The kit includes the necessary components to replace your worn-out clutch, ensuring a comprehensive upgrade.

When installing a clutch kit like this, it's always recommended to have the flywheel resurfaced or replaced to ensure proper mating surface for the new clutch disc and pressure plate. This helps prevent premature wear and ensures optimal performance. This Clutch Masters kit is a well-built solution for Golf R owners who need a clutch that can keep up with their performance goals.
