A clutch disc for motor vehicle main clutches in which the disc member carrying the friction linings is torsionally elastically connected with the flange of a hub member, whereby several springs or spring sets of different characteristics are arranged in windows at the hub flange, on the one hand, and of the disc member as well as of a side plate rigidly connected therewith, on the other; at least two friction devices for the damping are provided whereby the start of the operation of at least one damping device is determined by a control plate which with its tabs, arms or the like engages into the windows intended for the accommodation of the springs and cooperates with the springs; the connection between the disc member and the side plate takes place by way of several axially parallel bolts which extend through the hub flange in corresponding apertures; the control plate has two approximately radially extending arms which include each a radial extension that-in relation to a direction of rotation-abut at opposite spring ends; at least one arm thereby also engages with an axially bent-off portion into the corresponding window at the hub flange.
