VALEO 52411202

Valeo Premium Clutch Kits are engineered using only the highest quality components and latest technology for exceptional operation and reliability. More powerful engines, longer ratios and new lifetime specifications have led to the development and introduction of more complex clutch designs such as the Valeo SAT (Self Adjusting Technology). The SAT is a Valeo revolutionary technology that uses a wear detecting mechanism and self-adjusting device on the pressure plate, extending the clutch life and improving pedal comfort. Features:

• Enhanced with High Efficiency Technology that includes low-wear disc friction material with better heat dissipation and reinforces the pressure plate cover to maintain clamp load while improving pedal feel over the life of the clutch
• Premium friction material for high heat resistance and enhanced durability
• Enhanced damper technology for improved filtration of noise, vibration and harshness maintaining the comfort of the original clutch
Why Self-Adjusting Clutches Are A Better Value:

Overtime, the material on the friction disc wears, causing the pressure plate to move closer to the flywheel. Eventually without adjustment, there will be permanent contact to the clutch, causing the clutch to fail.

Non-self Adjusting Clutches must be routinely adjusted manually to the proper height to keep space between the flywheel & pressure plate when the pedal is pressed. Self-Adjusting Clutches automatically adjust as the friction material wears, keeping the proper spacing and pressure through out the life of the clutch and eliminating excessive load on the release bearing.

While Self-Adjusting Clutches are typically more expensive up front, they can save you money over the life of your clutch.



Organic vs. Kevlar vs. Ceramic Friction Disc - What Is The Difference?

The Friction Disc is a vital part of any clutch. It connects the pressure plate and flywheel, and is responsible for transferring engine power to the rest of the vehicle. Clutch Kits come with several different types of friction discs, and it is important to understand the pros and cons of each material:

Clutch Disc Material	Smooth Engagement	Holding Power (Friction "Grab")	High Torque Capacity	Lifespan	Gentle To Flywheel
Organic	★★★	★	★	★★	★★★
Kevlar	★★★	★★	★★	★★★	★★★
Ceramic / Cerametallic	★	★★★	★★★	★	★




Tips & Tools For The Job
• Wear a Dust Mask to protect against hazardous clutch dust. You can also spray the clutch with water prior to removal to reduce the amount of airborne dust during disassembly.
• Use a Flywheel Turner to hold the flywheel in place while removing and reinstalling the pressure plate bolts.
• Apply Blue Threadlocker to flywheel bolts prior to installation to prevent backing out due to the high vibrations flywheels are subject to.
• Use the provided lubricant to lightly lubricate the splines of the input shaft. Over lubricating the input shaft risks lubricant transfer to the clutch friction disc and can cause clutch slippage.
• Be sure to install the new clutch friction disc in the correct direction. The disc will have a "Flywheel Side" label on one side.
