FYWHEEL

 
	SOLID FLYWHEEL
	The main function of the flywheel is to maintain inertia in order to provide a more 
	consistent delivery of torque. This solid or “stock” flywheel is most common, and it is 
	used by most drivers. The pressure plate is bolted to the flywheel; and the flywheel 
	connects to the engine.

	DUAL-MASS FLYWHEEL
	The DMF helps to dampen the unwanted vibrations derived from torque and revolutions. The 
	reduction is achieved by accumulating stored energy in the two flywheel half masses over 
	a period of time but damped by a series of strong springs. Even though it has many advantages, 
	the DMF has some drawbacks. Mainly the cost, since it cannot be resurfaced, it has to be 
	replaced with a new one every time.
	
	LIGHT-WEIGHT FLYWHEEL
	Some performance applications will require a light-weight Billet Aluminum or Billet Steel 
	Flywheel. This light flywheel improves performance, and maintains low-end torque. They are 
	used for Street and Stage 1 and 2 performance clutches.
