EXEDY cerametallic clutches are designed to handle the abuse of high power modified engines. Our cerametallic fraction material can handle much more slippage than stock type disc assemblies without slipping and fading.
All EXEDY cerametallic clutch discs have spring center dampers to reduce the impact and shock loads put into the drivetrain. This protects the transmission and the rest of the drive line system. We offer two types of cerametallic discs, normal and reduced thickness.
The reduced thickness (thin cerametallic) Exedy discs offer greatly reduced inertia to improve shift efforts, make for faster shifting, and improve synchro durability. These discs are approximately 1/2 the thickness of a stock disc.
The normal thickness (thick cerametallic) Exedy discs have better heat capacity and therefore better durability in demanding applications such as all wheel drive. Even with the normal thickness, Exedy three puck cerametallic discs still typically have less inertia than a stock disc.
With any cerametallic clutch system, there will be some compromise of start up driveability as compared to a stock clutch (chatter on light throttle, low rpm start up). This characteristic is generally felt to be acceptable in modified performance cars.
