The Arrowmax AM-MTX-T2716 clutch bell is an RC component produced for compatibility with the MUGEN MTX-5 platform. It conveys rotational motion from the clutch to the drivetrain and is intended solely for model applications and tuning tasks.
Used as a tuning element, the item changes clutch engagement behaviour by altering rotating mass and surface characteristics. When installing on an MTX-5, ensure clutch shoe alignment and adequate clearance to the spur gear to prevent contact. Changes in mass and finish will influence engagement RPM and heat transfer, so use this bell together with spring and shoe weight adjustments for best results.
Carry out regular inspections after running to check for scoring, burrs or runout, especially after break-in or heavy track use. Replace the bell if wear or deformation could compromise clutch performance or introduce vibration. The notes here focus on 1/8 nitro track and social club tuning considerations.
