Two specifications to suit your build

• RTSTF-5390 - Twin Friction - aramid fibre on the flywheel side with a segmented cover face for progressive bite, rated up to 440 lb-ft. Superb for daily-driven performance cars and heavy road use.
• RTSPC-5390 - 5 Paddle - performance paddle drive plate for maximum bite and fast shifts, rated up to 480 lb-ft. Built for aggressive fast road, drag and circuit use while keeping sensible pedal effort.

Why this clutch kit works

• Aramid fibre lining for high friction, long life and excellent fade resistance under heat.
• Segmented pressure plate surface and ER2 face pattern help shed heat and debris for consistent performance.
• Spheroidal graphite casting improves strength and thermal stability for repeatable engagement.
• Higher clamp force for strong torque transmission without a heavy, on-off pedal.
• Clean take up, precise bite point and predictable modulation for everyday usability.
• Ideal for remaps and bolt-on upgrades - Stage 1, Stage 2 and hybrid turbo setups within the stated torque ratings.
