Clutch Friction Plates .080 GM TH400 5pk

The Clutch Friction Plates .080 GM TH400 5pk by TCI are engineered for builders and mechanics who demand reliable holding power in high-performance automatic transmissions. Whether you're rebuilding a stock TH400 or upgrading a street machine, these friction plates are essential components that directly impact transmission engagement quality and durability. This five-pack provides everything needed for a complete clutch pack assembly, making it ideal for transmission shops, weekend warriors, and serious gearheads tackling their own rebuild work.

Manufactured to OEM specifications, these .080-inch thick friction plates are precision-engineered to deliver consistent torque multiplication and smooth engagement across all driving conditions. The friction material composition is formulated to work seamlessly with steel separator plates, creating the layered clutch pack that multiplies engine torque through the transmission's planetary gearsets. TCI's quality control ensures uniform thickness and friction coefficient across all five plates, preventing chatter, slippage, and premature wear that compromise shift quality and longevity. The compact 10.2 x 11.8-inch footprint confirms fit within standard TH400 clutch drum cavities.

These plates are specifically engineered for GM TH400 applications, including Chevrolet, GMC, and Pontiac vehicles from the 1960s through 1990s, as well as marine and industrial equipment using this legendary transmission platform. Installation requires pairing with corresponding steel plates and proper soaking in automatic transmission fluid before assembly. Mechanics restoring tired transmissions or building performance applications benefit most from maintaining stock plate counts and thickness; deviating from these specifications can cause shift problems and reduced holding capacity. Always consult your transmission service manual and use a complete gasket and seal kit during reassembly.
