Kevlar®

The Kevlar®/Aramid fiber material that The Clutch Works utilizes is developed and manufactured in the U.S.. When used in the proper applications, it can outlast other friction materials two to five times. Kevlar® provides the pulling capabilities of ceramic button materials along with the smooth engagement properties of an organic facing. By its nature, Kevlar® allows for smooth clutch engagement which allows for prolonged life of universal joints, differential gears, and other drive line components.The major cost benefit savings of Kevlar®, aside from less downtime, is that all of the friction wear surfaces will show little or no wear compared to clutches using other friction materials. A truck originally equipped with a Kevlar® clutch, and Kevlar® replacement units, may never need the flywheel replaced!
