Description: Introducing the BM17-HDSS Clutch Kit, meticulously engineered by ACT to deliver exceptional performance and reliability for your BMW. With a focus on quality and durability, this kit is designed to meet the demands of both street and race applications.

At the heart of the BM17-HDSS kit lies ACT's renowned Heavy Duty pressure plate, featuring an exclusive diaphragm design that enhances clamp load, minimizes deflection, and extends clutch life. Crafted through a rigorous four-stage heat-treating process, these pressure plates ensure unparalleled performance and reliability. Precision cover stampings provide rigidity and consistency, offering smooth and positive engagement with a light to moderate pedal effort.

Complementing the pressure plate are ACT's Performance Street discs, crafted with premium organic materials boasting high copper content for superior heat transfer. Steel-backed lining enhances burst strength and durability, while reduced marcel facilitates faster shift action. This synergy between pressure plate and disc results in smoother shifts, increased strength, and enhanced reliability, making it an ideal choice for high-performance driving.

With a torque capacity of 465 ft/lbs. (52% over OE), this kit is built to handle the demands of spirited driving without compromise. Whether you're navigating city streets or tearing up the track, the BM17-HDSS kit provides the performance and longevity you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are ACT clutches balanced?

Yes! All ACT clutch assemblies are computer spin balanced to within .25 oz-in to guarantee help smooth operation across the entire RPM range. For comparison, stock production clutches are typically balanced to within .50 oz-in. Lower is definitely better!

Will an ACT clutch increase pedal effort?

ACT pressure plates are specifically designed to handle high torque applications. With ACT's durable design, expect an increase in pedal effort between 15-40% (Heavy Duty) and 50-80% (Xtreme), depending on the application. Clutches developed with less pedal effort often result in a lack of longevity, torque capacity and/or engagement quality.

Do ACT clutches require a break-in period?

For organic street discs, we recommend breaking in the clutch for 300-500 miles with mild engagement, such as stop-and-go city driving prior to racing or spirited driving. ACT race discs usually only require a few hard slips to lap in the surfaces prior to normal driving or racing. Do not overheat the clutch during the break-in period, as this can result in friction surfaces fusing together, hot spots, and friction surface glazing.

Are ACT clutches repairable or rebuildable?

In some situations, rebuilds or repairs may be possible (see warranty), after inspection of the clutch assembly. Please contact our technical department for further information. Because of special modifications, we do not recommend servicing by a general clutch rebuilder.

How much does an ACT clutch weigh?

The weight of the ACT clutch assembly will usually be the same as a stock OEM clutch assembly.
