South Bend Clutch Stage 2 Endurance Clutch Kit w/ Flywheel (15-19 Golf R, 15-21 GTI)
Product Details
Description
STAGE 2 ENDURANCE:
An SFI approved single mass flywheel is recommended for this application to get optimal performance. This clutch system is designed for the racing climate. The pressure plate is precision balance for vibration free operation at high RPM. The pressure plate fulcrum is altered for a positive disengagement and a quick shift. The disc is engineered with a Dual Damped design to provide accurate control when accelerating through corners. The friction material is a hybrid using a full face Feramic (Sintered Iron) lining on the flywheel side and a high metal content Organic lining on the pressure plate side. Engagement is positive yet buffered due to the high graphite content unique to Feramic facings.
Recommended uses are daily and street with an emphasis on Rally and Endurance racing.
Torque Rating of 450 ft-lbs.
Flywheel Features
Flywheels manufactured by SBC are made from low carbon, hot rolled steel that is highly resistant to warping and perfectly suited for the friction materials mated to them. Single mount CNC machining guarantees precise tolerances and perfect balance exceeding O.E. specifications. Extensive field testing has been done to determine the proper weight for each specific vehicle and to ensure smooth operation, safety and durability under extreme operating conditions.
Don't Forget to upgrade your rear main seal while installing your clutch!
Why?
The most common cause of rear main seal failure is a faulty PCV valve. The TSI engine is known to have PCV valve failures, which will cause an excess crankcase pressure. This is more pressure than the rear main seal can handle. This can cause check engine lights or mysterious oil leaks.
- This seal is only accessible once the transmission and flywheel are removed making it a good idea to replace it while installing a new clutch!Product Features
