A clutch plate for a friction clutch is disclosed having first and second torsion dampers coupling a hub to a friction disc. Each of the dampers includes a radial flange, two guide washers fixed to each other on axially opposite slides of the flange, and springs circumferentially interposed between each flange and its guide washers. The friction disc is fixed to one of the second stage guide washers and the first stage guide washers are fixed to the second stage damper. The second stage damper comprises a unit pre-assembled with the hub and is disposed within the confines of the second stage damper, and preferably between one of the guide washers and the flange of the second stage damper.
