ACT Releases New One-Piece Wedge Collar for Pull-Type Clutches
LANCASTER, CALIF., May 2, 2013 — People love good secrets. So, when Advanced Clutch Technology (ACT) engineers began developing a solution to the 
common problem with standard two-piece wedge collars found in Japanese pull-type clutches, they engineered Monoloc — a secret design too good to keep quiet about.
Monoloc is a direct replacement and upgrade to the two-piece wedge collar in pull-type clutches for the Mitsubishi Evo, Subaru WRX, Subaru WRX STi and Mazda RX-7. Its one-piece construction eliminates the collar snap ring from bending or popping out of place, which typically leads to clutch failure or severe pressure plate damage.
“The problem usually occurs during racing or ‘enthusiastic driving,’” Dirk Starksen, ACT president and lead engineer on the Monoloc project, said, “The snap ring of the wedge collar sometimes pops out of place and doesn’t seat back into the release bearing. This causes the snap ring to bend and the clutch to stop working.”
Monoloc fixes these issues. The spring tension of the segmented retaining ring has been carefully calculated and tested for optimal performance. The one-piece wedge collar provides uniform loading on the bearing and pressure plate to assure proper alignment, regardless of driver influence or vehicle modifications. In addition, Monoloc’s hardened, Chromoly steel construction will provide years of service.
Monoloc can serve as a upgrade feature for pull-type pressure plates using a standard wedge collar design and is available separately, exclusively from ACT, for $80. It installs just like stock. Also, it is featured in a growing list of several newly-developed pull-type pressure plates available from ACT and distributors.
ACT’s Monoloc is advanced, yet simple. Get yours today at www.advancedclutch.com.

These twin-disc clutch kits feature a pressure plate, two sintered iron discs, a XACT Prolite flywheel, release bearing, pilot bearing and alignment tool.
With ACT’s ability to design and manufacture diaphragm springs, we were able to keep the pedal load at a 22 percent increase over the stock pedal load, while increasing the clamp load by 88 percent over stock. The sintered iron discs allow for quick shifting, and twice the surface area for high-heat capacity and long life. These kits can support up to 770 lbs./ft. of torque.
The XACT Prolite flywheels are a one-piece chrome-moly construction with machined slots to provide the lowest inertia and best throttle response. Also, ACT’s XACT flywheels can be cost-effectively resurfaced.
All ACT Race twin-disc kits are dynamically balanced as an assembly for trouble-free use. Each kit has an overall weight of 16 pounds, which is a 47 percent decrease in weight compared to the 30-pound stock kit.
