Overview
The HPI Racing Clutch Bell (18T) is a high-strength machined steel clutch bell hardened for maximum durability on the HPI Savage 1/8 scale monster trucks. The clutch bell mates with the spur gear to transfer engine power into the drivetrain.
This 18T option offers a balanced gearing ratio that's a popular all-around choice. Drilled lightening holes reduce rotating mass for quicker acceleration and help cool the clutch shoes for more consistent performance. Each bell is stamped with the tooth count for easy identification.
