Clutch Masters single disc clutch kits are true high performance clutch systems which are technologically superior to anything currently on the market. By re-engineering the leverage or fulcrum point on the pressure plate through our Hi-Leverage technique, we have been able to increase clamping power, often without changing pedal pressure. Our Hi-Leverage technology allows us to move the pressure plate leverage ring closer to the pivot point. Doing this has allowed us to solve the clamping vs. pedal pressure problem in a unique way. By moving the pressure ring pivot point, our Hi-Leverage Pressure Plates take mechanical advantage of the leverage principle. By moving the leverage ring closer to the pivot point as well as re-arching and precisely heat treating the clutch diaphragm, the pressure applied to the clutch disc is increased significantly without unnecessarily increasing pedal pressure, as is typically the case with other aftermarket clutch options. Moving the pivot point takes several extra steps to accomplish when manufacturing our clutches in order for them to work flawlessly with OEM stamped covers and is something we’ve perfected through our over 40 years of industry expertise.
In addition to our ability to increase clamping pressure without increasing pedal pressure, there are some other key advantages realized when using our Hi-Leverage technology. One serious problem associated with increased pedal pressure is it increases the chances of damaging the crank thrust bearing, inherently leading to crank-walk. Increased pedal pressure can put additional strain and fatigue on clutch linkages, throw out bearings and hydraulic systems causing them to fail prematurely.
All stages come as a complete kit including disc, pressure plate, throwout bearing, pilot bearing (when applicable), and alignment tool. (Individual components available upon request)
ALL SYSTEMS INCLUDE:
- Power Plus I Pressure Plate

110% Increased Holding Capacity
The FX250 System uses the Power Plus I Heavy-Duty Pressure Plate and utilizes a combination of our Fiber Tough friction material on the side of the disc contacting the pressure plate, and steel backed organic friction material on the flywheel side of the disc. This clutch is designed for the street enthusiast or weekend racer who plans to abuse their vehicle on an occasional basis and has a very spirited driving style. The FX250 clutch system has a higher holding capacity than a traditional full faced kevlar without compromising the street friendly characteristics exhibited in the FX100 and FX200 series.

*Organic/ Kevlar/ Fiber-Tough Clutch kits are expected and tend to have a higher life expectancy than OEM, however not guaranteed. Improper Installation, Driving style, performance upgrades, Break in procedure and light weight flywheels will effect and have a role in determining the life expectancy of the clutch kit.
