UniClutch Launches Clutch System in the United States

UniClutch’s dual-core technology significantly boosts torque capacity without compromising drivability, according to the company.

Australian clutch manufacturer Clutch Industries is launching two versions of its UniClutch system in the United States.

UniClutch and UniClutch Sport will be the first iterations of the system to launch in the United States.

UniClutch’s dual-core technology significantly boosts torque capacity without compromising drivability, according to the company.

“Its one-of-a-kind, patented and adaptable design fits a multitude of vehicles, simplifies inventory management, expedites clutch replacement time, and lessens common installation problems,” Clutch Industries said in a news release.

Compared to UniClutch, UniClutch Sport offers 15% more torque capacity and a sport-tuned pedal feel for more serious enthusiasts, the company noted.

“We’re thrilled to introduce UniClutch to the United States after seeing strong early success in the Australia market,” said Brad Davis, CEO of Clutch Industries. “Auto repair shop feedback has been very positive, especially from technicians praising a faster and easier installation process. It’s also been our experience that shops can carry 20 times less inventory without impacting their ability to service any vehicle. We feel confident that UniClutch has the potential to redefine the performance clutch market with this revolutionary design.”

Clutch installation typically is an expensive, complicated and lengthy process. UniClutch’s sealed design eliminates the need for flywheel machining, while the Flex Fit technology and pre-alignment allows for hassle-free “bolt-on” installation in minutes. The patented modular technology adapts to different engines and transmissions, greatly reducing installation times and empowering technicians to quickly service a wider range of vehicles.

“For parts distributors, UniClutch’s patented Flex Fit technology will be transformative in inventory management, simplifying thousands of product variations to just a few,” Clutch Industries said. “This creates a solution for the complex ordering process for distributors, avoiding the challenges faced by an ever-changing supply chain. With UniClutch, parts distributors can provide consistent service to customers with a better return on investment.”

A unique QR code found on every UniClutch contains manufacturing and performance specifications for each unit.

At launch, UniClutch will retail exclusively at select NAPA Auto Parts stores across the United States and is available for purchase online via UniClutch.com.
