SACHS RCS 200 S2.6 Racing Clutch Disc R88186499U098
Lightweight sintered metal clutch disc with 2.6 mm lining thickness for SACHS RCS 200 racing clutches
The SACHS RCS 200 S2.6 sintered metal clutch disc R88186499U098 from ZF Motorsport is a high-quality driven plate for modular SACHS RCS 200 multi-plate racing clutches. It combines the large-format 200 mm diameter with just 2.6 mm lining thickness and is designed for fast response, direct power transmission and a low moment of inertia.
This version is aimed at motorsport applications where short, intensive load windows, fast rpm changes and precise engagement are the main priorities. Compared with thicker S5.2 or S7.8 versions, the S2.6 offers less friction material reserve, but reacts particularly spontaneously and reduces the rotating mass in the clutch pack.
The 200 mm diameter provides more friction surface and thermal reserve than smaller RCS sizes. Combined with the 2.6 mm version, it creates a responsive clutch disc for vehicles where high torque potential and fast response need to be combined.
The part number R88186499U098 identifies the specifically selected version with the matching hub profile for the respective gearbox input shaft. The clutch disc is intended for use within approved SACHS RCS 200 clutch configurations.

Technology
Sintered metal 2.6 mm
The SACHS RCS 200 S2.6 sintered metal clutch disc R88186499U098 is designed for fast response, direct power transmission and a low moment of inertia. The sintered friction lining supports very direct engagement behaviour and clear feedback in motorsport use.
The 2.6 mm lining thickness reduces the rotating mass in the clutch pack and promotes fast rpm changes. Compared with S5.2 and S7.8 versions, this variant places greater emphasis on agility; wear reserve and thermal capacity are deliberately designed for short, intensive application profiles.
The 200 mm diameter maintains high system capacity despite the low lining thickness. This makes the S2.6 version especially suitable for vehicles where fast gear changes, precise response and high torque transmission need to be combined.
Hub profile
The hub profile of the SACHS RCS 200 S2.6 clutch disc R88186499U098 is matched to the respective gearbox input shaft. This creates an accurate connection between clutch disc and gearbox, which is essential for clean power transmission and high operating reliability in motorsport.
When replacing a worn clutch disc, the existing hub length version of the SACHS RCS 200 clutch must be retained exactly. For new builds, conversions or individual assembly of an RCS 200 clutch pack, only the hub length combinations approved by ZF Race Engineering for the respective clutch configuration may be used.
Before installation, the hub profile should be checked against the existing gearbox input shaft as well as the clutch cover, intermediate plates, pressure plate and approved RCS 200 configuration.
SACHS RCS 200 system
As part of the modular SACHS RCS 200 clutch system from ZF Motorsport, the clutch disc is combined with approved pressure plates, intermediate plates and clutch covers. The decisive factors are the number of discs, lining thickness, installation height and the correct setup of the entire clutch pack.
The part number R88186499U098 identifies the specific version of this SACHS RCS 200 S2.6 sintered metal clutch disc. For safe function, clutch disc, friction partners, clutch cover, pressure plate, intermediate plates and installation dimensions must be considered as a complete system.
