ACT Advanced Clutch XT/Race Sprung 4 Pad Kit BM12-XTG4

If you're ready to take your BMW's performance to the next level, the ACT Advanced Clutch XT/Race Sprung 4 Pad Kit BM12-XTG4 is engineered for the most demanding drivers. This kit features an Xtreme pressure plate designed specifically to enhance your driving experience, whether you're hitting the track or pushing your limits on the street.

Unmatched Performance

The Xtreme pressure plate incorporates an exclusive diaphragm design that increases clamp load, minimizes deflection, and extends clutch life. Each diaphragm undergoes a rigorous four-stage heat-treating process, ensuring unparalleled performance under high-stress conditions. Precision cover stampings provide the necessary rigidity and consistency, making this clutch a reliable choice for serious enthusiasts.

4-Pad Spring-Centered Race Disc

ACT's 4-pad spring-centered race disc is crafted to dampen torsional vibrations, leading to quieter operation and enhanced durability. Designed for smaller disc sizes often found in compact engines, this setup allows for faster shifts and a more aggressive engagement feel. While you might experience a harsher engagement, the trade-off is quicker gear changes that keep you in the power band.
