New Fortified Clutch

-

The Terrain Tamer Fortified Clutch is the newest innovation in the brand’s extensive parts range, adding to their existing catalogue of standard and heavy duty clutch kits.

Purposely designed with the extreme weight and engine capacity of armoured vehicles in mind, the Terrain Tamer Fortified Clutch is perfect for vehicles with GVM upgrades ( where the clutch is often the weakest point), or for those carrying extremely heavy loads or with increased power from upgrades such as chips, aftermarke­t exhausts and turbos, offering up to an 80 percent increase in torque capacity.

Employing exclusive Terrain Tamer tooling, and with all components made in Japan, the Fortified Clutch includes an innovative clutch disc design that utilises a unique combinatio­n of both Velvetouch ceramic material on the engine facing and organic material on the transmissi­on facing. This design works to deliver smoother engagement, as well as an increase in damper spring capacity, friction material coefficien­t and the burst strength of the facing. Where applicable, it also features a three stage damper design.

The Fortified Clutch cover assembly features a spheroidal graphite anti burst pressure plate casting in order to both extend the life of the clutch, and allow it to run cooler in extreme situations, and is anodised for maximum corrosion resistance. It offers higher clamp loads and additional drive straps for strength, where required.

The Fortified Clutch range is available now for a range of Toyota, Nissan and Mitsubishi models. For more informatio­n or to find your nearest stockist visit terraintam­er.com
