What is the main benefit of the FX400 clutch kit over a stock clutch?

The FX400 kit uses a cerametallic friction disc and a high-performance pressure plate, which allows it to handle higher torque loads and temperatures than a stock clutch. The sprung hub design also helps to reduce drivetrain noise and vibration.

Does this clutch kit come with all the necessary installation hardware?

This kit includes the clutch disc and pressure plate. It is recommended to replace the pilot bearing and release bearing when installing a new clutch, and these are typically sold separately. You may also need a new or resurfaced flywheel.

What is the purpose of the sprung hub in the clutch disc?

The sprung hub contains springs that help to absorb shock and vibration from the engine and drivetrain. This leads to a smoother engagement feel and reduces the amount of noise and harshness transmitted to the cabin.

About this part

Product Details

The Clutch Masters FX400 clutch kit uses a sprung hub design, which helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can be transmitted through the drivetrain. This particular kit is built for a range of BMW models, including the 325e, 325i, and 528e, offering an improved engagement feel and handling for those looking to upgrade their vehicle's clutch system.

This FX400 kit features a high-performance pressure plate and a cerametallic friction disc. The cerametallic material is known for its ability to handle higher torque loads and temperatures compared to standard organic discs, making it a solid choice for drivers who push their vehicles a bit harder or are looking for a more robust clutch setup. The sprung hub in the disc is important for reducing drivetrain noise and harshness, which can be a common trade-off with performance clutches.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to have all the necessary supporting components ready. This includes a new pilot bearing, release bearing, and potentially a resurfaced or new flywheel, as these are critical for proper clutch operation and longevity. Following the manufacturer's specific installation instructions is key to ensuring the clutch performs as expected and lasts for many miles.
