Construction & Design

The ACT AT3-HDG4 clutch kit features a meticulously engineered design utilizing high-quality materials and manufacturing techniques. The pressure plate is crafted with a heavy-duty steel cover and a diaphragm spring that has undergone a four-stage heat-treating process, ensuring maximum strength and resilience. The clutch disc employs a four-pad spring-centered design, which effectively dampens vibrations and reduces noise during operation. This combination of components results in a clutch system that not only supports increased power but also provides a smooth and predictable engagement.

The use of precision stampings and robust construction ensures consistent performance and long-term durability. The components are designed to fit seamlessly into the factory mounting points, offering a bolt-on upgrade that requires no modifications for installation. The overall design emphasizes heat resistance, structural integrity, and vibration damping, making it suitable for both street and track use.
