Subject: [Fot] Quartermaster Clutches

Looking for some clutch help. I recently disassembled a quartermaster Pro 7=
.25 single disc clutch, not from my car. I have no experience with this sty=
le of clutch. Upon disassembly I observe that the flywheel insert, clutch d=
isc and pressure plate only have had contact on the outer 3/8 " diameter.  =
Upon further investigation the flywheel insert surface is flat. The clutch =
surface thickness is uniform but if I lay a straight edge across the face o=
f the Quartermaster pressure plate  it cups outward. My initial thought was=
 "bingo" this would cause the wear pattern I am observing. Must be somethin=
g out of whack with the pressure plate insert.  I contacted quartermaster a=
nd described what I saw and they were not much help other than "something m=
ust be warped". I was getting ready to order a replacement pressure plate i=
nsert but I stopped over to Jason's shop and saw that he was working on a c=
ar that also ran a quartermaster Pro 7.25 clutch but this was a double disc=
. I took it apart and all components had even wear across the faces as one =
would expect.  I layed a straight edge across the pressure plate out of thi=
s assembly expecting to see a flat contact surface and was surprised to see=
 the same cupped condition where the outer pressure plate surface would con=
tact the clutch disc first as the one at home. Now I am at a loss as to wha=
t would cause this improper wear pattern. Any experience with this?

Mark, my initial thoughts were the same as yours until I saw the other setu=

king for some clutch help. I recently disassembled a quartermaster Pro 7.25=

of clutch. Upon disassembly I observe that the
 flywheel insert, clutch disc and pressure plate only have had contact on t=

 insert surface is flat. The clutch surface thickness is uniform but if I l=
ay a straight edge across the face of the

springs in cover plate are shot. the pressure plate flatens out with good s-pring tension. Make sure the spring fingers are compressing slightly when tightening the cover plate.

All these type of clutches (Quatermaster, Tilton, etc.) suffer from the same
thing, that the pressure plate warps from heat.

The good news: They are designed to be ground flat. Put it on a magnetic
table of a grinding machine and let it surface then you have good new
clutch.

Betreff: [Fot] Quartermaster Clutches

Looking for some clutch help. I recently disassembled a quartermaster Pro
7.25 single disc clutch, not from my car. I have no experience with this
style of clutch. Upon disassembly I observe that the flywheel insert, clutch
disc and pressure plate only have had contact on the outer 3/8 " diameter.
Upon further investigation the flywheel insert surface is flat. The clutch
surface thickness is uniform but if I lay a straight edge across the face of
the Quartermaster pressure plate  it cups outward. My initial thought was
"bingo" this would cause the wear pattern I am observing. Must be something
out of whack with the pressure plate insert.  I contacted quartermaster and
described what I saw and they were not much help other than "something must
be warped". I was getting ready to order a replacement pressure plate insert
but I stopped over to Jason's shop and saw that he was working on a car that
also ran a quartermaster Pro 7.25 clutch but this was a double disc. I took
it apart and all components had even wear across the faces as one would
expect.  I layed a straight edge across the pressure plate out of this
assembly expecting to see a flat contact surface and was surprised to see
the same cupped condition where the outer pressure plate surface would
contact the clutch disc first as the one at home. Now I am at a loss as to
what would cause this improper wear pattern. Any experience with this?

The spring can cope with quite some wear of the clutch plate and also the
pressure plate.

It doesn't make much difference.

I had reground my pressure plates 3times before retiring them.

Thanks.  Wouldn't you loose contact pressure each time you ground it though
? It looks like I would have to grind off a decent amount to get to flat.

Everytime, when mounting the clutch cover,( i.e. when putting in a new disc=
) one has to check if the spring fingers have gone inwards about 2mm when t=
he bolts are fastened. If less than 2mm, the clutch may slip, if the spring=

=3D"font-size: 12.0pt; color: black;">Looking for some clutch help. I recen=
tly disassembled a quartermaster Pro 7.25 single disc clutch, not from my c=
ar. I have no experience with this style of clutch. Upon disassembly I obse=
rve that the flywheel insert, clutch disc and pressure plate only have had =
contact on the outer 3/8 " diameter.&nbsp; Upon further investigation the f=
lywheel insert surface is flat. The clutch surface thickness is uniform but=
 if I lay a straight edge across the face of the Quartermaster pressure pla=
te&nbsp; it cups outward. My initial thought was "bingo" this would cause t=
he wear pattern I am observing. Must be something out of whack with the pre=
ssure plate insert.&nbsp; I contacted quartermaster and described what I sa=
w and they were not much help other than "something must be warped". I was =
getting ready to order a replacement pressure plate insert but I stopped ov=
er to Jason's shop and saw that he was working on a car that also ran a qua=
rtermaster Pro 7.25 clutch but this was a double disc. I took it apart and =
all components had even wear across the faces as one would expect.&nbsp; I =
layed a straight edge across the pressure plate out of this assembly expect=
ing to see a flat contact surface and was surprised to see the same cupped =
condition where the outer pressure plate surface would contact the clutch d=
isc first as the one at home. Now I am at a loss as to what would cause thi=
s improper wear pattern. Any experience with this?</span></p></div><div><p =
