Construction & Design

The FX100 Clutch Kit features a steel-backed organic disc combined with a Power Plus I Pressure Plate, both engineered for durability and performance. The organic friction material provides a smooth, progressive engagement suitable for street driving, while the high clamping force of the pressure plate ensures that power is transferred efficiently without slipping. The steel backing on the disc enhances heat dissipation and structural integrity, allowing the clutch to perform reliably under extended use and moderate abuse.
