Surflex - Speedway clutch discs

As Italian clutch specialist Surflex gets set to celebrate its 70th anniversary, there aren't many better ways of demonstrating just how durable and heavy duty its clutch discs are than with an upgrade to the Speedway clutch offering.


Since the 1980s, the company's friction plates have been fitted to several 'Oval Track' champions' bikes, and the introduction of a lightweight, hard coated Ergal intermediate plain plate to match its well-known friction discs improves the present clutch performance by adding unrivalled strength and light weight - the noted properties of the 7075 zinc aluminium alloy.
Speedway bikes need a task-specific tailored clutch that is resistant to heavy and continuous stress. Besides the plates, since the 1980s, Surflex has designed complete clutches for the sport and has played a key role in Speedway clutch developments and improvements - selected by many of the best speedway racers of all times, including Armando Castagna, Jason Crump, Nicolas Covanni, Paco Castagna and many others.
Surflex Speedway friction plates are available in three different formulas, developed by its in-house Research & Development Department and manufactured by Surflex at its Tradate headquarters facility between Milan and Varese in grey, green and red, to signify their performance and material characteristics.
