Finished in durable iron and designed for efficient heat dissipation, the MOJTBE clutch supports #40, #41 and 420 roller chains and is most commonly used on go-karts, mini bikes, lawn mowers and fun karts. It offers straightforward installation and consistent engagement without the need for lubrication on the friction surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this clutch perform on engines up to 13HP?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MOJTBE clutch is calibrated to engage at approximately 2300 RPM, giving predictable power transfer as your engine revs rise. It is rated for engines larger than 6.5HP and tested up to a top limit of 13HP, so it handles small performance engines without premature wear when matched correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEngagement speed: ~2300 RPM for smooth takeoff.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePower range: recommended for 6.5HP–13HP engines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaterials: high-quality iron for heat resistance and torque handling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApplication: suited for go-karts, mini bikes, fun karts, and small garden machinery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this clutch fit my setup and chain type?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit uses a 1\" bore hub and a 14-tooth sprocket compatible with #40, #41 and 420 roller chain standards.
