During use, the clutch is required to be able to engage and disengage with the power easily and freely, and to work in a semi-clutch state for a short period of time, and the clutch should not overheat. Because there is no resistance from the engine oil, the dry clutch generally has a faster bite response and a stronger bite force. Also, because there is no engine oil cooling, the dry clutch generally uses an exposed method to dissipate heat.
