ACT HD/Race Rigid 6 Pad Kit Audi | Volkswagen 1990-2005
$531.00
Free Shipping

So, you’re looking to beef up your ride’s clutch game? Let me tell you about the Advanced Clutch HD/Race Rigid 6 Pad Kit VR1-HDR6. This kit is built around ACT's heavy-duty pressure plate, which is a favorite among those who really push their cars. The design is pretty slick—it uses a special diaphragm that cranks up the clamp load while keeping deflection to a minimum. This means you get a longer-lasting clutch that can handle the heat, and trust me, it’s been heat-treated through a four-stage process to make sure it won’t let you down on track day.

The pressure plate is made with precision cover stampings, so it’s rigid and consistent. Now, about those 6-pad rigid race discs—these bad boys are crafted from high-quality ceramic friction materials. They’ve got a chrome-moly hub that’s heat-treated for extra toughness. The lightweight design lets you shift quicker, which is a game-changer when you're racing or just having fun on back roads. Just a heads up though: the engagement is a bit harsher, but that’s the price you pay for faster shifts. If you're running a larger clutch size, this setup can absorb a lot more heat, making it perfect for track use.
