A switch to steel delivered significant increases in yield and fatigue strength compared to previous clutches. The roller bearing surface area of the spider arms is 30 percent larger than previous clutches thanks to an increase in width.
Likewise, the buttons have 70 percent more surface area. Every button-to-tower contact point is measured after CNC machining to ensure the exact dimensions have been maintained. Manufactured and assembled in the U. To withstand the torque pulses from engine combustion, the rollers and flyweights were designed to shuttle, or move in unison.
A 40 percent increase in the base width of the flyweights prevents rocking, increasing stability and durability. The flyweights themselves get a carburizing heat treatment process on the rolling surface for extended life.
The TEAM BOSS Rapid Response driven clutch is equally impressive in its design and focus on quality, featuring machined sheaves that mount directly to the machined-matched driven shaft. The result: a 0. The shaft itself is larger diameter than traditional shafts. Arctic Cat hinted that there are further, future weight savings made possible by the new system.
Combined with optimized cooling fin geometry, the changes to the drive system deliver a degree reduction in clutch and belt temperatures for improved belt life and performance. Changing belts and adjusting belt deflection is quick and simple with the Rapid Reaction driven. To change belts, an L-shaped removal tool included in the tool kit simply threads into the clutch, which spreads the sheaves to loosen the belt.
To adjust deflection, just loosen the lock-nut and adjust the set screw which adjusts the distance between the two sheaves and then tighten the lock-nut. Spacers are no longer needed. The Rapid Response drive clutch is available as a direct replacement on previous model Arctic Cat snowmobiles. As always John thanks for the hot new clutching details. Jeremy: the helix is inside the movable sheave.
Maybe next week. But my sled has the original primary which is still working fine but I worry about it. I think it would be best to keep it as a spare and upgrade. Belts are expensive, also my turbo is stock and it needs to see the proper rpm to run correctly. I know some competent clutch builders but nobody has laid eyes on this new clutch. Good for Arctic Cat, and good for the American Minnesotans workers that design and build this stuff.
Good news for the hundreds of workers in my home town! Any chance the drive will be available with a 30mm taper for us old folks? That outfit would look yummy on my T Cat …. I know many will disagree with me, but I really liked the fixed pin part of the arctic primary, I have a F6 with miles and the wear in the primary is really minimal.
This is with many, many top end speed runs and lots of tuning……. Jim D, I believe there is a 30mm taper clutch available from TEAM, but not sure if it has the goodies the new clutches have described here. I know you can buy TEAM clutches for vintage sleds with a 30mm taper, check out teamaftermarket.
