Dialing in your clutch air gap with the Buller Built 0.075" Floater Plate is the ultimate way to restore instant engagement and eliminate off-corner slip when sourcing high-performance kart parts online. Designed specifically for Bully 2-disc and 3-disc setups, this hardened steel floater plate is the exact production substitute you need when standard .065" plates are scarce or when your friction discs have worn down, requiring a thicker plate to bring your air gap back to the optimal .030" - .035" window.
Precision Air Gap Tuning for Rotax Engines & 4-Cycle Builds
Whether you are adapting setups for high-revving rotax engines or tuning the clutch on a heavy-hitting 4-cycle, maintaining the correct air gap is critical. A widened gap leads to excessive heat, glazing, and sluggish launches. By dropping in this 0.075" plate, racers can effectively shim their stack, ensuring stable pressure distribution across the shoes. It's a must-have in the trailer, right next to your spare kart wheels and tires, ensuring you are always ready to adapt to track conditions and component wear.
Built for the Demands of a Racing Go Kart Frame
The extreme torsional loads transferred through a modern racing go kart frame demand drivetrain components that won't warp under thermal stress. This floater plate is stamped from hardened steel, resisting the hot spots and distortion that plague cheaper alternatives. It integrates seamlessly with ceramic linings and standard friction discs alike. While you might be focused on a new go kart steering wheel upgrade for better handling, don't neglect the drivetrain—a perfectly shimmed clutch is what actually puts you on the podium.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When should I use the 0.075" floater plate instead of the standard 0.065" plate?
A: You should switch to the 0.075" plate when your friction discs have worn down to the point where a standard plate no longer allows you to achieve the optimal .030" - .035" air gap. This thicker plate helps restore proper clutch engagement and prevents off-corner slip.
Q: Is this floater plate compatible with both 2-disc and 3-disc Bully clutch setups?
A: Yes, this plate is specifically engineered for both 2-disc and 3-disc Bully clutch systems, providing the necessary thickness to maintain consistent pressure distribution.
Q: Does this plate require any special modifications to work with ceramic linings?
A: No, the plate is designed to be fully compatible with both standard friction discs and aggressive ceramic linings right out of the box.
Q: How does the 0.075" thickness affect my clutch performance?
A: By using the correct thickness, you ensure the clutch stack is properly shimmed. This prevents excessive heat and glazing caused by a gap that is too wide, resulting in more consistent, snappy launches off the corner.
