Designed to make a
difference

ZF Race Engineering's SACHS motorsport clutches have stood for top-tier quality in international racing for decades. The ambition: continuous improvement and the drive to keep pushing the limits. From the lightest clutch used in Formula 1 to proven twin-plate and multi-plate systems in WRC, DTM, NASCAR, Le Mans and the Dakar Rally - ZF Motorsport technology is a core component of many winning cars worldwide.

Clutch Disc
SACHS RCS 200 7.8

Sintered metal 7.8 mm, rigid design

The SACHS RCS 200 7.8 sintered‑pad clutch disc is the robust choice for maximum durability, consistent performance and long service life. Its 200 mm diameter delivers high torque capacity and excellent heat dissipation - ideal for endurance racing, rally and any application with sustained thermal load.

The 7.8 mm lining thickness offers a large wear reserve, clearly more material than 2.6 mm. This increases thermal capacity, smooths temperature spikes and reduces fade and warpage. The result is a stable coefficient of friction, a precise bite point and repeatable engagement even after many race starts and long stints.

Compared with 2.6 mm discs, the 7.8 mm version deliberately sacrifices the last grams of rotating mass in favour of durability and thermal security. If you prioritise a temperature-resistant, hard-wearing solution over pure sprint response, you benefit from longer service intervals and reliable torque transfer under extreme loads.

Individually riveted sintered pads ensure even surface pressure, clean torque transfer and a consistent pedal feel. In total, the RCS 200 7.8 combines the reserves of the larger 200 mm format with the staying power of thick sinter pads - the right choice for racers who must be consistently fast over distance.
