FSWERKS Aluminum Flywheels
Our FSWERKS Aluminum flywheels are essential for any Focus enthusiast who desires a faster revving engine. The FSWERKS aluminum flywheels, which weigh in at 8.5 lbs. for the MTX75 and 12.5 lbs for the Getrag, are much lighter than the heavy OEM unit that tips the scales at 21.5 lbs. for the MTX75 and 24.5 for the Getrag. What this means to you is that by utilizing a FSWERKS aluminum flywheel, you'll have less rotating mass, which directly translates into more useable horsepower. And since our aluminum flywheel are lighter than OEM, it will help extend engine life, due to less stress on your engine's main bearings. Our flywheels are CNC machined from 6061 aluminum and then finished with a CSS (constant surface speed) process that results in a finish that is second to none. We use aerospace screws with self locking nuts to attach the 1050 high carbon steel friction plate to the 6061 slab. We also counter bore the shoulder between the flywheel and the heat treated ring gear, utilizing button-head screws to avoid ring gear slippage. FSWERKS aluminum flywheels come in a silver anodized finish.
