Abstract
A clutch includes a reaction plate, a cover plate, a pressure plate and, arranged between the pressure plate and the reaction plate, at least two friction discs, together with at least one intermediate disc which is interposed between the two friction discs, the latter being mounted for rotation with a hub of the clutch. The hub, the friction discs and the intermediate disc are assembled together, to form a unit which can readily be handled and transported, due to the presence of at least one shoulder carried by each of the axial ends of the hub.
