Venom Clutch Spring
Venom Products Clutch Springs: Precision-Engineered CVT Performance
When it comes to dialing in your CVT drivetrain, few components have as much influence as the clutch spring. Clutch springs govern two critical behaviors: the RPM at which your primary clutch engages and the rate at which it upshifts under load. A spring that has lost its tension — or was never calibrated correctly for your riding conditions — can mean sluggish acceleration, premature belt wear, and inconsistent power delivery. That's exactly the problem that Venom Products was built to solve.
Why Venom Products Stands Apart in the Clutch Spring Category
Venom Products is a Minnesota-based manufacturer with deep roots in powersports CVT engineering. Venom Products came about when TEAM Industries decided to exit the aftermarket and focus on OEM business; in 2015, Venom continued that legacy and has since developed its own products and in-house processes. That heritage means the engineering philosophy behind every Venom clutch spring traces directly back to decades of OEM-grade clutch development.
The team behind Venom Products brings over 60 years of combined experience in powersports, spanning both OEM and aftermarket work. That depth of knowledge is baked into every spring they produce.
High-Tensile Wire Construction for Lasting Rate Retention
Venom primary clutch springs are made from high-tensile silicon wire to maintain rate over many cycles. This is a meaningful distinction: lower-grade springs lose tension over time, causing engagement and shift RPM to drift away from your tuned settings. Primary springs control engagement and shift rate, and Venom springs are made from high-tensile wire designed to hold rate better than cheap alternatives — the first force number controls what RPM your clutch engages, while the second controls how fast the clutch upshifts.
Venom springs are manufactured to exacting tolerances, allowing riders to fine-calibrate their primary clutch with confidence. Springs are available in a range of force ratings — typically expressed as dual-number designations such as 120-340 or 200-380 — so you can match engagement and shift characteristics precisely to your altitude, load, and riding style.
Broad Vehicle Compatibility
Venom specializes in clutches and clutch and drivetrain components for sleds, side-by-sides, quads, golf carts, and other powersports vehicles. The brand covers a wide range of makes including Can-Am, John Deere, Arctic Cat, and Kawasaki ATVs and UTVs; Ski-Doo, Vintage Sno, and Polaris snowmobiles; as well as E-Z-GO and Yamaha golf carts. Whether you're chasing a faster sled on a groomed trail or pushing your side-by-side through rocky terrain, there is a Venom clutch spring engineered for your application.
Race-Proven Performance
Venom Products have seen the finish line at the X Games, the Baja 1000, the I500, the Soo I500, the Iron Dog, Jackson Hole, Grantsburg watercross, Eagle River, and multitudes of local races across the country. That competition pedigree is a direct reflection of how well these springs perform under the most demanding real-world conditions — not just on a test bench.
Whether you are a recreational rider looking for a reliable OEM replacement or a performance enthusiast seeking a custom spring rate to match your clutch kit, Venom Products clutch springs offer the precision and durability that serious powersports drivers demand.
