Technical Details.
The SACHS Racing clutch discs with sintered metal plates have a higher friction coefficient than plates with organic friction material. That allows for higher transmittable torque and makes them very dirt and oil resistant.
Their aggressive start performance makes them very suitable for endurance races, hill climbing, slalom and rally's. Installed together with the SACHS Performance clutch cover, you´ll have the perfect combination for a great race track experience.
The SACHS Performance clutches are assembled by hand. This guarantees at all times the highest quality attributes in clamping load and release characteristics.
Quality - Made in Germany.
The clutch systems from ZF Sachs Race Engineering have brought motor sports teams worldwide to the forefront, from mass sports to Formula 1. The knowledge gained from these race series has been flowing into the development of High Performance products for years.
Typcially applications include:
Chip-Tuning, Turbocharger and supercharger modifications, 1/4 mile-race, Race circuit (endurance race, clubsport, autocross), Rally (e.g. group N), Slalom, Drift Racing. Due the aggressive start performance of the sintered disc, that disc is not recommended for street cars.
