• Six-Pad Design: The six-pad configuration provides a balanced combination of aggressive engagement and smooth operation, helping to optimize power transfer and reduce slip under high torque loads.
• Spring-Centered Construction: Heavy-duty torsional dampening springs are strategically placed to absorb torsional vibrations, minimize driveline shock, and extend the lifespan of the clutch components.
• Enhanced Heat Dissipation: Designed to absorb and dissipate heat more effectively, this clutch disc maintains performance even during extended high-RPM sessions or heavy-duty use.
• Optimized Spring Rates: The springs are selected to provide a firm yet manageable engagement, supporting quick shifts and improved pedal feel for performance drivers.
• Durability and Reliability: Built with high-quality materials and precision manufacturing, this clutch disc is engineered to withstand the rigors of racing and spirited driving, ensuring consistent performance over time.

Construction & Design

The ACT 6 Pad Sprung Race Clutch Disc is constructed with a robust ceramic friction surface bonded to a high-strength steel core, ensuring durability and heat resistance. The six-pad design distributes engagement forces evenly, reducing uneven wear and enhancing longevity. The spring-centered hub incorporates heavy-duty torsional dampers that effectively absorb torsional vibrations, resulting in smoother engagement and reduced driveline shock. The entire assembly is precision-machined for perfect fitment and balanced to minimize vibrations, providing a seamless upgrade for your Mazda MX-5 Miata.

Installation & Fitment

The ACT 6 Pad Sprung Race Clutch Disc is a bolt-on upgrade that fits directly into your Mazda MX-5 Miata's existing clutch assembly.
