ACT Clutch Kit with ACT Xtreme Pressure Plate and ACT Performance
Organic Street Disc.
ACT Xtreme Pressure Plates deliver the maximum holding power
available! For high horsepower streetcars, combine this high clamp
pressure plate with an ACT Street Disc to maintain smooth
engagement and obtain high torque capacity. For racing, combine the
ACT Xtreme Pressure Plate with the ACT Xtreme Race Disc for the
ultimate in torque capacity, durability and quick shifting.
What makes these units so unique? The radical increase in clamp
load developed from a single specially designed diaphragm. ACT
employs several secrets (just good engineering) to maximize load
and reduce flex. The result is maximum torque capacity and long
life, while maintaining good release clearance for fast, clean
shifting. On some units, such as the Eclipse/Talon, ACT gussets the
pressure plate cover to reduce flex caused by the high
pressure.
ACT Street Discs are designed for smooth engagement, quiet
operation and improved durability using only the best organic,
spring center designs. ACT Performance Organic Street Discs use
special steel backed performance linings designed to withstand high
heat and abuse. Most of these "SS" discs are also modified for
quicker shifting. What is all the hype about different lining
materials available? ACT still contends that nothing can beat a
good quality organic disc for street use. Virtually all the premium
sport car manufacturers use organic discs. Actual product may vary
slightly from image.
ACT
ACT's mission is to serve our customers in an extraordinary way
with business excellence, outstanding product quality, and
exceptional value which meets even the most challenging needs of
our customers. ACT leads the industry in performance clutches and
flywheels by manufacturing an extensive product line, including
single disc clutches, twin disc clutches, carbon clutches and
flywheels. Our Mission is to advance a family of people committed
to innovation, measurable results and well developed systems of
operation which provide adventure, quality and efficiency. Each ACT
product is unparalleled in strength, durability and materials. ACT
products combine all the features needed in a performance clutch or
flywheel with many different combinations to choose from. Materials
used from design to production provide the platform for a solid
engineered part. ACT provides quality that lasts, materials that
work and processes that perform to ensure calculated results.
Simple yet advanced. Finite Element Analysis: ACT uses powerful
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) computer software to test and
evaluate products in a virtual environment. The FEA software
accompanies the latest CAD and 3D solid modeling software used by
ACT's research and development department so that numerous design
alternatives can be considered long before coming to market with a
new product. ACT's FEA software mechanical stress, heat transfer,
thermal stress, vibration and buckling analysis under virtually any
load condition which can help identify potential problems in a
particular design.Custom Data Recording Press: ACT uses a computer
operated data recording press to cycle, test and record pressure
plate clamp load, working range, release load and release travel.
Each pressure plate is load tested and cycled to ensure parts meet
ACT's strict quality standards. This special equipment makes
testing accurate, efficient, and thorough so both existing parts
and prototype designs can be quickly evaluated. This equipment also
allows ACT to create custom setups for customers and give them a
dyno sheet for that exact assembly. Laboratory Testing: Utilizing
the latest in laboratory testing, ACT continues to experiment with
different friction materials and design alternatives for future
product development. Friction material tests help ACT to evaluate
coefficient of friction, fade, wear, and recovery under different
load, speed and temperature conditions. Laboratory burst testing
and material testing is performed on parts for SFI certification on
a scheduled basis and regularly performed on new parts.
