CENTERFORCE ® DFX SERIES
The DFX® line is the latest series of performance clutches from Centerforce.  Centerforce is announcing DFX as the competition-proven clutch package for select import and domestic applications.  This new DFX series is engineered for competition standards of quality and craftsmanship. The DFX series is aimed at high-end applications that continually demand increased integrity and holding-capacity.  DFX scores big, not only with holding-capacity and strength, but also provides some of the best drivability from a race-inspired clutch.  DFX retains an easy pedal effort, thanks to Centerforce’s patented ball bearing actuated diaphragm, for smooth engagements without detriment to the vehicle’s release components.  The Centerforce DFX performance clutch system is SFI approved for competition with Nodular Iron pressure plate rings and reinforcements designed to help prevent drive strap breakage and safety.

 CENTERFORCE DUAL FRICTION ®
The Centerforce Dual-Friction pressure plates feature our patented processes to provide a performance clutch that offers exceptional street characteristics, while offering outstanding holding-capacity and durability. The Dual-Friction disc has a full facing on the pressure plate side for drivability and longevity, while a carbon composite puc style (segmented) facing is used on the flywheel side for a positive engagement and increased holding-capacity.  Dual Friction is the ultimate in street/strip holding power and performance without sacrificing pedal effort and driver control.

 

 CENTERFORCE ® I
The Centerforce I is designed as a high-quality entry-level performance clutch for those in need of a superior stock replacement. Using the patented Centerforce centrifugal weights (where applicable) and premium friction materials, the Centerforce Stage 1 clutch system is perfect for applications with stock engines or mild power increases from minor bolt-on modifications.


 

CENTERFORCE ® II
The Centerforce II system utilizes a full facing-disc with premium friction materials and a pressure plate with patented centrifugal weights (where applicable). Furthermore, static clamp load is increased via our patented machining processes; this combination allows superb holding power and maximum clutch life, making this stage ideal for selected street/strip, off-road and towing applications.

 

 CENTERFORCE ® LMC SERIES (Light Metal Clutch)
The Centerforce LMC Series is a specifically designed low inertia performance clutch that dramatically reduces engine rotating mass.  These lightweight, SFI approved competition clutches are intended with most road racing and circle track applications in mind.  Centerforce machines these special pressure plates from high-strength aircraft-grade billet aluminum and then attach a special heat-treated replaceable friction surface.  The Centerforce LMC series friction disc utilizes a dual-segmented carbon composite lining for improved cooling and excellent torque capacity.  This new series of Light Metal Clutch assemblies from Centerforce uses their patented ‘Ball Bearing’ actuated diaphragm and centrifugal weight system for maximum grip while maintaining a comfortable and controllable clutch pedal.  When used in conjunction with Centerforce’s aluminum flywheels, LMC Series brings the term ‘Light Weight’ to an unparalleled level

CENTERFORCE ® FLYWHEELS
Centerforce manufactures the best in SFI approved performance flywheels by using high-strength billets, not castings.  Centerforce flywheel part numbers with a “700” prefix are made from billet steel and match closely to the original equipment flywheel weight.  Centerforce “800” and “900” flywheel part number prefixes designate specially made flywheels from aircraft grade billet aluminum for light weight (low inertia).   Centerforce aluminum flywheels also feature mechanically retained starter ring gears as well as replaceable steel friction surfaces that have been heat-treated for abrasion resistance and long life.   The “400” series flywheels are O.E. cast iron replacement flywheels and are not SFI approved for competition use, these are a quality replacement wheel only. Centerforce billet flywheels are CAD/CAM designed and then CNC machined to strict tolerances for perfect fitment and hassle-free, bolt-in performance.   Consult your Centerforce catalog or web site for the latest in performance flywheel applications!

WeightTech

CENTERFORCE WEIGHTS
The weights offer additional clutch torque capacity by harnessing centrifugal force as engine RPM increases. Using centrifugal force and leverage on the clutch diaphragm the Centerforce weight system actually increases clamp-load with engine speed and power.
 

DualFrictionTech

DUAL FRICTION
The patented Centerforce Dual-Friction disc system distributes pressure plate clamping force evenly over a 360-degree friction-facing on one side of the clutch disc, while the opposing side uses a segmented friction-facing to concentrate clamping pressure and maximize clutch holding-capacity. This combination of dual configured friction-facings, coupled with our performance pressure plate, creates the ultimate clutch system that is engineered for smooth drivability, maximum longevity and awesome grip

BallBearingTech

BALL BEARING
Centerforce provides innovative leadership in clutch technology by creating patented processes like their ball bearing pressure plate designs.  When possible, Centerforce uses ball bearings as a fulcrum (pivot) point for the pressure plate diaphragm spring.  By utilizing this unique system, Centerforce can increase clutch holding-capacity and keep the pedal effort low.  This also allows Centerforce to increase the quality and repeatability of each clutch developed with this process
