[STR1CD] - STR Single Plate Clutch for Mini R53 Cooper S - Clutch Kit
[STR1CD] - STR Single Plate Clutch for Mini R53 Cooper S - Clutch Kit
The [STR1CD] - STR Clutch line-up was designed to hold high capacity power while still retaining a relatively light clutch pedal. This technology was driven from our racer's demand for a lighter clutch during long endurance races in Japan. Heavy clutch pedals lead to driver fatigue during long endurance racing.
The [STR1CD] - STR single plate dampened clutches give some forgiveness to the transmission by absorbing drivetrain shock while providing reliability and [STR1CD] - STRength under heavy abuse. The end result is a quiet and reliable clutch set that will go years before needing overhaul. The [STR1CD] - STR1CD is good up to about 300 lbs ft torque maximum.
****For pure motorsports use or dual purpose vehicles, we recommend starting with our [STR1CD] - STR clutch lineup.****

We utilize full face metallic clutch plates to achieve high torque capacity from our clutches. This allows for us to use much softer diaphragm springs to achieve equal or better torque capacity compared to our competitors with substantially less pedal effort.
