Clutch assembly including dual layer friction material and method for bonding the friction material layers to a clutch part

Abstract

A method of making a clutch assembly for a motor vehicle is provided. The method includes applying a colloid to at least one of a first wet friction material layer and a second wet friction material layer; arranging and aligning the second wet friction material layer on the first wet friction material layer with the colloid an interface between the first wet friction material layer and the second wet friction material layer, the colloid aiding in the arranging and aligning of the second wet friction material layer on the first wet friction material layer by causing adhesion of the second wet friction material layer to the first wet friction material layer; and then bonding the second wet friction material layer and the first wet friction material layer together by a binder.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
