Industry Information

Clutch Facing

Clutch facings help to reduce clutch clatter by offering smooth and consistent clutch engagement and disengagement. They are also utilized to keep lower coefficients of friction within automobiles while still providing high strength and speed. Clutch facings can be constructed from a wide variety of both asbestos and asbestos-free materials and, if desired, are available in molded and woven compositions.

Without the friction provided by clutch facing, the clutch slips and cannot transfer power. Clutches have a friction disc that is composed of the same types of friction material found in brake pads. Friction materials are used to increase friction in applications when a decrease in movement is desired.

Clutches are devices used in automobiles to switch gears. In manual cars, the clutch pedal is located to the far left of the gas and brake pedals. The clutch mechanism is a device that engages and disengages a drive shaft. When the clutch is engaged, power is transferred from the engine to devices like the transmission and drive wheels. Clutches need friction materials in order to engage after gear changes.
