Abstract
The clutch disc for a motor vehicle friction clutch comprises a hub (1) and a friction lining carrier mounted rotatably through a limited angle of rotation on the hub (1), with side discs (9, 11) firmly connected into one unit and arranged axially on both sides of a hub flange (7). The friction lining carrier is mounted through a guide ring (15) on the hub (1). The guide ring (15) comprises a ring part (41), which can be a component of a friction damper (29), and a ring extension piece (53) guiding the friction lining carrier radially on the hub (1). The ring extension piece (53) is made radially resilient and centers the friction lining carrier radially without play on the hub (1). The guide ring (15) can comprise axial tongues or a coating of elastic material for the generation of initial radial stress forces.
