PWC Workshop: what material to use for relining a cone clutch

Jos van Genugten is a young engineer and is approaching restoration jobs  1. as an afficionado, 2. as somebody who likes to show but even more likes to drive his cars. It occured to him that whenever the subject of the cone clutch comes to table, that there are as many opinions as clutches...! Below you will find his approach and his opinion. Feel free to respond.

"Part of our beloved hobby is the restoration/maintenance of the aged & tired vehicle. Just recently we have started a series of  repair samples under the name "PreWarCar Workshop". In this week's Workshop a maintenance job that many people have dealt with in the past: relining a cone clutch.

There are many ways of doing this job, and just as many opinions on which material to use and how to maintain it after driving. I would like to begin with this article asking you to comment on this article with your own experience on material and lubrication/non-lubrication of the chosen material afterwards.
As said: this way I’m showing you is just 1 of the ways that I happen to have excellent experiences with this method during thousands of pre-war miles with my own vehicles. Anything could potentially work from greased leather belts to certain rubber types to composites and everything in between. Please comment!

For this job, I have chosen a high-quality modern friction material which is found in excavators, certain marine applications and heavy-duty off-road and mining equipment. The reason for this material is that it has very good wet and dry brake capabilities. Meaning that it will work both when it is dry as new, but also after having suffered many miles behind your non-sealed pre-war crankcase, soaked in oil and grease.
