RAM Clutches 801 10.5 Inch GM Lightweight Aluminum Pressure Plate

The RAM Clutches 801 is a high-performance 10.5-inch diaphragm-style pressure plate engineered specifically for GM applications requiring lightweight components and reliable clamping force. This competition-grade pressure plate features a billet aluminum pressure ring with a steel insert, delivering exceptional strength while significantly reducing rotational mass for improved performance.

Key Features:

• 10.5-inch diaphragm-style design for GM applications
• Billet aluminum pressure ring with riveted steel heat shield insert
• 2800-2900 lbs. static clamp load for reliable power transfer
• Lightweight construction at just 13.2-13.5 lbs.
• 11-5/8 inch bolt circle pattern
• Ideal for road race and circle track applications
• Compatible with RAM 490 and 492 clutch discs
• Fits GM 153 and 168 tooth flywheel patterns

This pressure plate is ideal for stock clutch rule classes and road racing where weight reduction is critical to performance. The aluminum construction provides significant weight savings over traditional ductile iron pressure plates while maintaining the clamping force necessary for high-performance applications. When used with a RAM six-paddle solid hub disc, the complete assembly weighs just over 15 pounds, making it one of the lightest options available for competitive racing.

Applications: Designed for GM engines in circle track racing, road racing, and stock clutch rule classes. Not recommended for street use or drag racing applications.
