PERFORMANCE CLUTCH COVERS
The Helix Autosport performance clutches are intended for applications where the engine/vehicle performance has been increased above standard. All Helix Autosport clutches are manufactured from new components to the highest standard using the best materials available. They are designed to give higher clamp load to cope with higher torque capacity together with an increase engine rpm. Helix Clutches are additionally designed as a straight swap from your OEM application.
These clutches are ideal for road use and light competition.
RACING CLUTCHES
The Helix Autosport Racing Clutch range has been designed to satisfy the variety of needs found in the competition market place.
The clutch cover is a one-piece Aluminium Alloy of the lug drive design which has a low moment of inertia. This gives the benefit of greater heat dissipation to run cooler whilst also allowing the friction dust to escape.
Depending on your requirements they are available as single, twin or triple plate systems, using either organic, cerametallic or sintered friction material.
CLASSIC & HISTORIC APPLICATIONS
Our passion and understanding for classic cars mean we are one of the best placed organisations to supply clutches and flywheels to this industry. In 2010 we began designing bespoke items for classic cars and have seen extensive success in this area ever since.
We can design new versions of classic car clutches, helping to keep classic cars on the road for longer. Our clutches enable your classic cars to run more efficiently due to the modernised design of a classic part. We can design and supply clutches for classic cars that may not be available to purchase anywhere else.
SINGLE MASS FLYWHEELS
All Helix Autosport flywheels are made from Chromium Molybdenum Steel. They are made to exact tolerances using O.E specifications and fully balanced.
All procedures are done in house to ensure the quality and to keep the lead times down. This also allows customers to have special requirements such as a specific weight or timing marks.
