Tilton has now applied their nearly 50 years of experience in racing clutches to develop the ST-246 line of twin-disc clutch kits for the high-performance street market. Unlike many of the “performance clutches” on the market, ST-246 clutches were designed from the ground up as a true performance twin-disc clutch and not an OEM-type stamped steel pressure plate with a floater added. Featuring an aluminum clutch cover that shares technology from Tilton’s championship-winning line of OT- Series racing clutches, ST-246 clutches feature heavy-duty straps that attach the pressure plate and floater plate to minimize noise. ST-246 clutches are available with either sprung-hub organic discs for street applications or solid-hub ‘cerametallic’ discs for street/strip applications.
All kits include a billet Chromoly steel flywheel that features a precision register for the clutch to provide an optimal balance of the clutch/ flywheel assembly. In addition, ST-246 clutches can be used with most OEM release bearings or Tilton’s renowned hydraulic release bearings as an option. Most importantly, Tilton ST-246 clutch kits offer all this technology at a price point that is very competitive to the other clutches on the market.
Precision machined aluminum clutch cover high-strength, stiffness, and better balance than OE-type stamped steel covers.
The high-mass main pressure plate and floater plate machined from the same proprietary materials as used by Tilton’s racing clutches provide high heat capacity and resists warpage. Heavy-duty straps attach plates to cover to minimize noise and provide clean clutch release.
Organic disc option, with a sprung center hub to dampen engine vibrations and reduce gearbox noise, provides smooth engagement for street use and holds 850 lb-ft of torque.
‘Cerametallic’ disc option, with a solid center hub for higher strength, provides positive/precise engagement characteristics for streets/strip and holds 1250 lb-ft of torque.
Chromoly steel flywheel provides high strength and long-term durability. It features a precision register to locate the clutch and provide optimal balance, as opposed to loose-fitting bolts & dowels used with stamped steel clutches.
ST-246 clutches are designed to work with most OEM release bearings or Tilton hydraulic release bearings. For a true high-performance experience, trust Tilton
