Centerforce Clutch
- You're already making the centrifugal force--why not let a Centerforce clutch take advantage of it?
- You can have a heavy-duty clutch without a heavy-duty clutch pedal when you use a Centerforce clutch
- Stock upgrade or full-blown competition: There's a Centerforce clutch available for all applications
- All Centerforce products, from clutch kits to flywheels, are made with the same uncompromising durability
Centerforce Clutch
If there's one thing your engine produces in bulk, but doesn't really use, it's centrifugal force. Sure, that rotation is translated into torque and horsepower too, but if your flywheel is going to be spinning, why not get some use out of the centrifugal force too? That's what a Centerforce clutch does. The Centerforce clutch utilizes an absolutely unique design whereby weights spin outward as engine speed increases. The result is that a Centerforce clutch clamps down on the clutch plate with a tremendous amount of pressure, yet you don't pay the price with a sore left leg. See, other companies offer high clamping forces too, but since they don't use the innovative Centerforce clutch mechanism, they have to create that force with heavy-duty springs. We've all gotten into a car that was practically undriveable because of the clutch pressure required. If that car had used a Centerforce clutch, the same torque transfer properties could have been achieved with much less pedal pressure. There's a Centerforce clutch produced for most popular applications, both import and domestic, so be sure to see if your car is listed. You'll love the launch provided by your new Centerforce clutch, and your left leg will eventually return to its normal size—we promise.
Centerforce Pressure Plate
There's nothing wrong with the Centerforce clutch disc…it's a great piece of friction engineering, actually. It's just that the really cool part of a Centerforce clutch—the part from which the company takes its name—is the Centerforce pressure plate. The Centerforce pressure plate takes charge of the centrifugal force made by your spinning engine and turns it into clamping force on your clutch plate. How? The Centerforce pressure plate has a unique system of weights that can slide on the Centerforce pressure plate spring tines. As centrifugal force acts upon them, such as when your engine is running at high RPM, they press harder and harder on the clutch disc and flywheel. That way, your Centerforce pressure plate gives unbelievable clamping forces without wrecking your left leg. See, we told you the Centerforce pressure plate was pretty cool. There are a couple of different styles of Centerforce pressure plate too, so you can install the Centerforce pressure plate that best suits your driving style and vehicle horsepower. Keep in mind, the best way to integrate a Centerforce pressure plate into your car's driveline is to install a full clutch kit, and the company features kits including the Centerforce pressure plate for most popular import and domestic vehicles. So put your clutch to work for you: Install a Centerforce pressure plate and get extreme pressures without an extreme workout.
Centerforce Throwout Bearing
A new clutch kit is sometimes called a “3-piece clutch kit” because it contains…drum roll please…three pieces. For example, a Centerforce clutch kit contains a pressure plate, friction plate (aka a clutch disc), and a Centerforce throwout bearing. The duties of the first two may seem obvious, but what about the Centerforce throwout bearing? A Centerforce throwout bearing is what actually allows your clutch pressure plate to freewheel while the clutch is pressed in (released). The Centerforce throwout bearing also has to handle the pressure of the clutch springs while it's spinning and absorbing all that engine rpm. Think about that for a few minutes, and you'll develop the healthy respect for the Centerforce throwout bearing that we've developed. If your clutch makes a rumbling noise when you have your foot on the clutch pedal, but it goes away when the clutch is engaged, your throwout bearing is suspect. If you have a stock clutch and throwout bearing, replace the whole unit with a Centerforce clutch and Centerforce throwout bearing. You'll get the long life and killer clamping force of a Centerforce clutch, and a brand-new, whisper-quiet Centerforce throwout bearing to go along with it.
Centerforce Flywheel
To take full advantage of the hard-core clamping pressures your Centerforce clutch provides, the company also makes a Centerforce flywheel for most applications. Available in aluminum and steel for many cars and trucks, a Centerforce flywheel removes the compromises engineered into the factory piece. The result is that your vehicle, when fitted with a Centerforce flywheel, may rev more freely, launch more smoothly, and idle more steadily. But the big advantages of your Centerforce flywheel will be seen when it's mated with the appropriate Centerforce clutch for your application. You'll get the absolute best power transfer available in a street machine by combining the matched clutch and Centerforce flywheel on your car. Not to mention that clutch performance is always enhanced when the flywheel is replaced at the same time. Adding a Centerforce flywheel is just icing on the cake. Centerforce is engineering and releasing new Centerforce flywheel applications all the time, so if your performance vehicle isn't on the list yet, make sure you check back frequently: A Centerforce flywheel that'll make the difference between first and second place is probably in the works.
