FCC Clutch Plate Set for Bajaj Pulsar 180 UG4 – 6 Friction Plates

FCC Clutch Friction Plate Set for Bajaj Pulsar 180 UG4 — 6 Plates

Replace worn clutch friction plates on the matching Bajaj Pulsar 180 UG4 clutch with the FCC-B-PUL-180-UG4-ORG six-piece friction plate set. The set is produced under the F.C.C. Clutch India brand and is listed under the exact Pulsar 180 UG4 application in FCC's clutch product reference. It is commonly searched for as Pulsar 180 clutch plates, Pulsar 180 UG4 clutch plate kit, clutch friction plates, or clutch plate set of 6.

Important: This is an FCC-branded replacement, not a Bajaj Genuine Parts-branded clutch kit. The manufacturer part number and the vehicle's clutch generation must match before purchase. The item contains friction plates only—not the complete clutch assembly.

Quick Product Check

Model Compatibility — Read Before Ordering

Why fitment is restricted: The same "Pulsar 180" name spans different upgrades, emission generations and possible clutch revisions. FCC identifies this set specifically as Pulsar 180 (UG4). A later Bajaj 180 BS4 parts catalogue lists a different friction-plate-kit number, so a BS4 or later bike should not be assumed compatible. The quantity of six friction plates alone does not prove interchangeability.

Part-Number Differences That Matter

What Is Included?

• 6 × FCC clutch friction plates, supplied as one boxed set under FCC-B-PUL-180-UG4-ORG.

This is a friction-plate-only package. Steel/plain clutch plates, springs, pressure plate, clutch hub, basket, fasteners, cover gasket, engine oil, and fitting labour are not included. The Under The Hood keychain used as a photography prop is also not included.

Compare the new plates and total clutch stack with the correct workshop specification; do not assume every visually similar clutch uses the same plate count, dimensions, or stack arrangement.

What Do Motorcycle Clutch Friction Plates Do?

Clutch friction plates are part of the wet multi-plate clutch system on applicable motorcycles. When the clutch is engaged, the friction and corresponding steel plates transmit power from the engine to the transmission. Correct plate selection, wear limits, adjustment, and compatible engine oil are important to normal operation.

Replacing the friction discs may be appropriate when the existing plates are worn or damaged, but it does not guarantee a cure for clutch slip, hard gear changes, abnormal sounds or poor acceleration. Cable adjustment, incorrect oil, clutch springs, steel plates, hub/basket wear and other faults must also be assessed.

When to Inspect the Clutch

• Engine RPM rises under load without a corresponding increase in motorcycle speed.
• Clutch engagement is inconsistent after the free play and operating mechanism have been checked.
• The motorcycle exhibits clutch drag or difficulty finding neutral.
• Workshop disassembly finds plates outside the service-manual wear specification, overheated, damaged, or otherwise unserviceable.
• The existing clutch is being rebuilt and the correct six-friction-plate stack has been positively identified.

Diagnostic caution: Any one of these symptoms can have other causes. Diagnosis and measurement should precede parts replacement.

Before You Buy — Fitment Checklist

1. Verify the motorcycle is a Bajaj Pulsar 180 UG4, not simply a Pulsar 180 of an unknown revision.
2. Check the exact model variant, year and clutch assembly against the bike-specific Bajaj parts catalogue or a qualified technician's identification.
3. Confirm that the clutch requires the friction-plate specification corresponding to FCC-B-PUL-180-UG4-ORG; six plates alone are insufficient proof.
4. Inspect the friction-disc shape, outer drive tabs, inner and outer dimensions, and relevant plate arrangement against the original.
5. Confirm that replacement steel plates, springs or a gasket are not needed as these are not in this box.
6. Confirm the physical set is complete and in serviceable condition before installation.

If the generation or clutch revision is uncertain, provide the motorcycle model, production details and photos/part reference from the existing clutch so the item can be checked before purchase.

Installation, Storage and Workshop Notes

• Clutch work should be undertaken by a qualified mechanic following the applicable Bajaj service manual, including the correct disassembly, plate order, specifications, fastener torque and clutch adjustment.
• Inspect steel plates for warping and damage and check clutch spring free length, pressure plate, basket and hub against service limits.
• Follow the specified preparation procedure for the friction plates and use the correct motorcycle engine oil required by the vehicle manufacturer.
• Do not rely on a universal soak time, torque setting, thickness or oil grade: those are not independently verified for this exact FCC package.
• Check clutch lever free play, disengagement, leaks and normal operation before returning the motorcycle to road use.
• The printed stock label is dated 16 April 2022. Inspect packaging, plate faces and tabs for damage, rust contamination, moisture or deterioration before fitting; reject any set with questionable condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Is this a genuine FCC product?

The product is sold in FCC Clutch India-branded packaging and carries manufacturer part number FCC-B-PUL-180-UG4-ORG. It is not offered as Bajaj Genuine Parts-branded stock.

Q. Which Bajaj motorcycle is this kit listed for?

FCC identifies this exact part number for Bajaj Pulsar 180 UG4. The clutch assembly and model revision must still be checked before ordering.

Q. Will this fit my Pulsar 180 BS3?

The original Pulsar 180 UG4 BS3 generation is the relevant application, but confirm the exact installed clutch assembly. The model name or registration year alone is not enough.

Q. Does it fit Pulsar 180 BS4 or newer versions?

Fitment for later revisions is not confirmed by this exact FCC reference. A later Bajaj catalogue uses a different friction-plate-kit part number, so check the actual assembly.

Q. Will these plates fit Pulsar 220F?

Do not assume so. FCC has a separate Pulsar 220 UG4 clutch plate code, FCC-B-PUL-220-UG4-ORG.

Q. Will this fit Pulsar NS200 or RS200?

No compatibility claim is made for NS200 or RS200. Use their exact clutch part number and model-specific parts data.

Q. Can I use it for Pulsar 150 UG4?

Do not substitute this set. FCC lists a different part number, FCC-B-PUL-150-UG4-ORG, for Pulsar 150 UG4.

Q. How many clutch plates are supplied?

One retail box contains six FCC friction plates, as printed on the packaging: 1 Unit (06 Nos).

Q. Are the steel clutch plates included?

No. Only the six friction plates are offered. Plain/steel plates and all other clutch components must be sourced separately if required.

Q. Is this a full clutch assembly?

No. It is not a complete clutch basket, hub, spring and pressure-plate assembly.

Q. Is DJ101369 the FCC part number?

No. DJ101369 is a Bajaj catalogue friction-plate-kit reference from an older Pulsar 180 UG4 catalogue. The FCC product sold here is FCC-B-PUL-180-UG4-ORG; the reference alone does not prove fitment on every revision.

Q. Will these plates stop the clutch from slipping?

Only if the diagnosed fault involves the friction plates and all other components meet specification. Spring wear, incorrect adjustment, oil and other issues can also cause slip. No result is guaranteed.

Q. Do the plates need to be soaked in oil before fitting?

Follow the preparation method given for the motorcycle and clutch in the relevant service manual. No universal soaking duration is promised for this FCC package.

Q. What is the price printed on this box?

The box is labelled ₹895 MRP inclusive of taxes and was packed on 16 April 2022. The selling price, if discounted, may differ.

Q. Why should I check the plates before installation?

This is stock with an April 2022 packing label. Check for a complete set and any moisture, contamination, cracked friction lining, broken tabs or other storage-related damage before fitting.

Q. Is the Under The Hood keychain shown in the photograph included?

No. The UTH keychain is a product-photography prop and is not included in the six-plate FCC set.

Q. How can I confirm fitment before ordering?

Match the full FCC manufacturer code against the clutch application, or send the motorcycle year/variant and clear pictures or part reference from the existing clutch for a pre-order check.
