Car Clutch Discs

Car Clutch Discs

The clutch is an essential part of the transmission, which transfers the engine's power to the wheels.

 

The clutch disc, also known as the clutch drive plate, is a part placed between the pressure plate of the clutch cover and the flywheel. When the car clutch is engaged, the disc is squeezed between the friction surfaces of these two parts.  

 

The role of the drive plate is to connect the engine to the gearbox moving at a different speed to gradually allow full torque transfer during driving to filter engine vibrations.

 

Valeo Premium Clutch Kits

 

Our premium aftermarket clutch kits provide the market with an optimal solution in terms of quality and performance for a variety of automotive needs.

Our range includes a huge selection of clutches for passenger cars and LCVs to suit vehicles from around the world. We offer clutch kits with Dual Mass Flywheels as well as our Kit4P clutch conversion kits with solid flywheels.

 

Valeo Clutch Parts

 

In addition to clutch kits, Valeo offers individual parts for the car clutch, including clutch covers, master cylinders and concentric slave cylinders (CSC), release bearings, flywheels, and more.

These are the same OE parts Valeo offers automotive manufacturers, which you’ll also find in our aftermarket clutch kits. 

 

All Valeo clutch parts are made with the highest OE standards. Valeo’s best-in-class friction material is known for its outstanding performance.

Some manufacturers even request Valeo competitors to use Valeo’s friction material facings on their clutches.

Valeo Clutch Conversion Kits

 

Want to learn more about Valeo clutch kits? Watch our free webinar to learn all about the Kit4P Clutch Conversion Kit. You’ll learn why certain vehicles fitted with Dual Mass Flywheels (DMF) may benefit from conversion to a Solid Flywheel.

We’ll explore the differences between different flywheel technologies and explain how Kit4P improves durability without compromising performance compared to a DMF.

Benefits

Choice

  • Alternative to Dual Mass Flywheel (DMF)

Value

  • High reliability
  • High price/performance ratio

Comfort

  • Improved acoustic comfort
  • Lower idle and creeping noise
  • Excellent capacity to filter engine torque oscillations
  • Improved driveline Noise, Vibrations, and Harshness (NVH)

Technologies

Long Travel Damper

The Long Travel Damper (LTD) technology featured on many Valeo clutches consists of a specific friction plate with high damper capacity and a damper with very low stiffness for improved filtration and transmission performance.

This low angular stiffness, coupled with the specifically matched flywheel inertia, ensures the appropriate damping level as well as extended life of the clutch kit.
