Clutch Masters steel flywheel for the 15-18 Golf,14-16 Jetta 1.8T, and 14-15 Passat 1.8T are machined from 1045 or 4140 billets that are sourced from US manufacturers and are guaranteed free of impurities or defects. Each of their flywheels is CNC machined to exact fitment while being supervised by master craftsmen in every part of the process to guarantee accurate and quality products.

All Clutch Masters steel flywheels receive a black oxide coating to ensure they stay rust-free for the life of the flywheel. Some of their very popular ultra-light steel twin-disc flywheels used for racing are forged Chromoly pieces that are then finished to exact tolerances.

All steel flywheels are SFI certified for use in all sanctioned racing bodies. Get yours shipped now and experience superior pulling and driving performance.

Going from a Dual-Mass Flywheel (DMF) to a Single-Mass Flywheel (SMF):

A Dual Mass Flywheel (DMF) is a flywheel in two concentric parts or two facing flywheels stuck together with a flexible compound to damp down transmitted vibration and gear rattle for the gearbox. Many newer model vehicles now come standard with a factory DMF. Many times enthusiasts choose to replace a DMF with an SMF, and here is why:
- DMF’s tend to be more expensive than an SMF.
- DMF’s are not designed to be resurfaced like conventional SMF.
- DMF’s usually weigh 30+ lbs depending on the application which will cause unwanted turbo lag.
- DMF’s cannot withstand a high rate of abuse and may fail under spirited driving

Note:

Replacing your OEM flywheel with a lightweight flywheel may cause gear noise or a vibration that may not be suitable for everyone. The lighter the flywheel, the more gear noise will be produced. Depending on the application, Clutch Masters usually recommends Steel flywheels rather than Aluminum flywheels since Aluminum flywheels will cause more gear noise. Aluminum flywheels are usually only recommended for race applications with the least amount of weight possible. A lightweight flywheel may affect the life expectancy of a clutch kit depending on the application.
