Abstract
A friction clutch driven plate has an annular friction facing with a back surface in contact with an opposed surface of a friction facing carrier. Circumferentially spaced recesses are provided in the back face of the facing so as to relieve the back surface of the facing to allow portions of the friction surface of the facing to yield under axial load on engagement of the driven plate against a drive member.
