Friction Materials and Their Advantages
Our friction materials are selected to suit diverse driving conditions and preferences:
- Organic: Ideal for daily drivers, our organic friction material provides smooth engagement and is forgiving in stop-and-go traffic, making it an excellent choice for those who prioritize drivability and comfort.
- Ceramic: For drivers who demand more from their vehicles, our ceramic friction material offers higher heat tolerance and increased performance. This material is suited for aggressive driving and applications where higher horsepower and torque are present.
- Kevlar: Positioned between organic and ceramic, Kevlar offers a balance of durability and drivability. It provides a longer lifespan and slightly more aggressive engagement compared to organic, making it suitable for sporty driving and moderate performance upgrades.
Staging Explained
The staging system in our clutch kits, consisting of Stage 1 and Stage 2, is designed to simplify the selection process based on your vehicle's performance level:
- Stage 1: Perfect for vehicles with minor modifications or those seeking a reliable replacement for the OEM clutch. It offers improved performance without sacrificing the driving comfort of daily use vehicles.
- Stage 2: Designed for vehicles with more significant modifications, including increased horsepower and torque. This stage provides greater holding power for more spirited driving and occasional track use.
