When a C4 or C5 rebuild calls for stage 1 red friction plates, having the right individual disc on hand keeps the job moving without ordering an entire kit you do not need. This is a single friction disc, sold by the piece, so you can match the exact quantity your clutch pack specification requires without leftover parts.
The red friction compound used in stage 1 applications differs from standard black friction material in the way it manages heat during engagement cycles. Technicians working on automatic transmission units that run hotter than average or that are being rebuilt for more demanding duty often specify this material to address premature friction wear and slipping under load. It is not a universal upgrade for every application, so confirm your rebuild sheet calls for stage 1 red before substituting it for the stock material.
This disc fits C4 and C5 automatic transmission units from 1964 through 1986. No other fitment is stated, and no other fitment should be assumed. The part number is.
Before placing your order, count the number of friction discs in the clutch pack you are rebuilding, confirm your unit is a C4 or C5, and verify the year falls within the 1964-1986 range. This listing does not include steel separator plates, bands, seals, gaskets, or an Automatic Transmission Filter. If you need those components, they are listed separately. Ordering the correct quantity of this disc up front avoids delays once the unit is already on the bench.
- Skip the guesswork on friction material: these stage 1 red clutch plates are spec'd for C4 and C5 automatic transmission units built between 1964 and 1986.
- This listing covers the friction disc only. It does not include steel plates, bands, Automatic Transmission Filter, gaskets, or any other clutch pack component. Check your full parts list before ordering.
- Stage 1 red friction material provides a distinct heat-dissipation profile compared to standard black friction compounds, making it a go-to choice when rebuilding units that see higher operating temperatures.
- One friction disc, weighing 1 lb per unit. Sold as an individual piece, not as a set. Order the quantity that matches your clutch pack specification.
- Before purchasing, confirm your transmission is a C4 or C5 unit, verify the model year falls within 1964-1986, and cross-check the number of friction discs your clutch pack requires.
