What’s the difference between SMF and DMF?
SMF stands for single mass flywheel, DMF is dual mass flywheel. The OEM flywheel is a DMF designed to help reduce vibration and noise. There’s a lot of arguments for and against SMF vs DMF and aluminum vs steel, so please do all your own research and choose what’s right for your build.
DMF Dual Mass Flywheel:
• Designed to reduce noise and vibration
• Designed for light street driving
• Typically more expensive
• Cannot be resurfaced
• Usually weigh 30+ pounds
• Not designed to handle racing abuse
SMF Single Mass Flywheel:
• Lightweight, less rotating mass
• Quicker acceleration
• Can be resurfaced
• Typically noisy
• May affect the life of your clutch
Aluminum vs Steel:
Aluminum flywheels are lighter than steel. The lighter the flywheel, the more noise your clutch will make. Aluminum flywheels are typically only used with race applications. Clutch Masters recommends a steel flywheel for street use.
