We produce clutch discs for vehicles ranging from 50cc to 220cc. From the raw materials to the precision of each process, our clutch discs are excellent in every respect. Every part we manufacture guarantees a perfect driving experience. Our clutch discs are unmatched in terms of reliability, durability, and performance, as they adhere to strict industry standards and include genuine components.
Characteristics:
- High and stable friction levels
- Very good wear resistance
- A superior surface provides better torque performance
- Greater durability
- Anti-corrosion
- Wet operation
- Smoother gear changes
- Stable coefficient of friction
- Raw Material
- Manufacturing
- Evidence
The intermediate clutch discs are made of high-carbon steel, and the core plates are made of aluminum, steel, high-temperature resistant plastics, or phenolic resin-based fiber, depending on the clutch design. This friction material is aligned on the core plates to generate torque in the engine. The clutch operates on the principle of friction. Two friction surfaces come into contact; when a force is applied during engagement, they engage due to the friction between them and transmit power from the engine to the gearbox and, subsequently, to the drive wheels.

| Raw material | Aluminum body | High-grade ADC12 with a copper content of 1.65% | ADC12 high grade with a copper content of 1.65%, below the 0.5-0.8% content. | We offer the ECE-R90 certified formulation with high copper content which means exceptional mechanical properties such as durability, comfort and longevity along with safe driving. |
| Covering | Asbestos-free construction with special fiber material | With asbestos formations | We offer asbestos-free friction material that does not harm the environment since asbestos material has been banned in most countries. |
We achieve our superior quality through precision at every stage of production. The ADC 12 raw material provides us with high strength. Another factor driving the high demand for our replacement parts is the use of environmentally friendly materials that do not cause friction with asbestos, which is banned in many countries. Our patented material boasts excellent performance and competitive pricing. Our quality is also accepted by OEM manufacturers, and our direct-from-factory prices help us compete in this highly competitive market. We pride ourselves on our mass production capacity of approximately 50,000 sets per day and a wide range of 150 models. Therefore, our optimized production processes guarantee 100% customer satisfaction and unparalleled quality.

| Manufacturing | Production technology | Automatic molding machines | Semi-automated or manual machines | By using fully automated CNC machines, we offer min. tolerance level products with negligible rejection in the final stage. |
| Design center, tool room and R&D facilities. | Interior design center, tool room and R&D center | Not available from regular Chinese factories | We have exceptional expertise in developing custom formulations for steel products. For molded products, we have an in-house tool room with integrated mold design and manufacturing facilities, enabling fast turnaround times for our customers. | |
| Molding | Automated molding process | Manual molding process | Automatic molding results in relatively low wear under heavy-duty conditions and at higher friction levels. | |
| Heat treatment | Internal heat treatment process | Outsourced in most factories | Grain alignment to provide better raw material strength and reduce internal stress |
Our finished clutch discs undergo rigorous testing and verification to ensure the highest possible precision and quality at every level. For your peace of mind, we always go the extra mile and perform double-checks. Each clutch disc is evaluated against the following parameters before reaching the market and you.
