Clutch bell designed for MTX-5 use

The Arrowmax AM-MTX-T2716 clutch bell is an RC component made to work with the MUGEN MTX-5 platform. It transfers rotation from the clutch into the drivetrain and is intended for model-scale maintenance and tuning rather than any full-size application.

Functionally the bell is used to change clutch engagement characteristics and the rotating mass of the system. When fitting to an MTX-5 layout make sure clutch shoe alignment and spur gear clearance are correct to prevent rubbing. The bell's mass and surface finish will influence engagement RPM and heat transfer, so it should be considered alongside springs and shoe weight adjustments during tuning.

Perform routine inspections for runout, scoring and mounting security after break-in or intense running. Replace the bell if wear or deformation appears that could alter engagement or create vibration. These points are aimed at 1/8 nitro track and club-level tuning use.

The bell should seat cleanly on the clutch hub; check for accurate machining and minimal runout before committing to racing use.
Yes, combining different shoe weights and springs with this bell is a common tuning approach to alter engagement RPM and drive feel.
Check the bell after the initial break-in, after any impact events and periodically during heavy running for scoring, deformation or loose mounting. Replace if performance is affected.
