Overview

The Heavy Duty Clutch System from Armour Master is designed to support the operational demands of armored and high-load vehicles. Armoring significantly increases vehicle weight and drivetrain load, requiring reinforced clutch components to ensure reliable torque transfer and controlled engagement.

Armour Master offers component-level clutch solutions, allowing targeted upgrades, replacements, or complete clutch system assemblies based on vehicle configuration and usage requirements.

Clutch System Components

Armour Master supplies the following heavy duty clutch components suitable for armored vehicle applications:

Clutch Plate

The Clutch Plate is a critical component responsible for transmitting engine power to the drivetrain. In armored vehicles, clutch plates must handle increased load and friction demands caused by added vehicle mass.

Key role:

  • Transfers torque from engine to transmission

  • Designed for high load operation

  • Supports consistent drivetrain engagement

 

Pressure Plate

The Pressure Plate applies the necessary force to engage the clutch plate against the flywheel. A reinforced pressure plate is essential to maintain grip and prevent slippage under increased torque conditions.

Key role:

  • Maintains clutch engagement under load

  • Ensures consistent pressure distribution

  • Supports heavy duty drivetrain performance

Clutch Disk

The Clutch Disk works in coordination with the clutch plate and pressure plate to enable smooth power transmission. In armored applications, the clutch disk must withstand repeated engagement cycles under higher stress.

Key role:

  • Enables smooth engagement and disengagement

  • Handles increased friction requirements

  • Designed for durability in heavy-duty use

Clutch Complete Kit

The Clutch Complete Kit includes all required clutch components supplied as a single assembly. This option is suitable for full clutch replacements or armored vehicle conversions requiring a matched and compatible system.

Key role:

  • Provides complete clutch system solution

  • Ensures component compatibility

  • Simplifies installation during upgrades or conversions

 

System Configuration Flexibility

The Heavy Duty Clutch System components can be:

  • Supplied individually

  • Installed as a complete clutch kit

  • Used during armored vehicle conversions

  • Replaced as part of scheduled maintenance

This modular approach allows precise adaptation to vehicle drivetrain requirements.

Application Scope

Heavy Duty Clutch System components are suitable for:

Vehicle TypeUsage
Armored VehiclesSecurity, defense, and VIP transport
Heavy-Duty VehiclesVehicles operating under increased load and torque

Design Focus

The clutch system offering focuses on:

  • Handling increased drivetrain load

  • Maintaining smooth engagement and disengagement

  • Supporting reliable power transmission

  • Reducing drivetrain stress under armored conditions

Each component contributes to ensuring consistent vehicle operation under demanding environments.
