Applies pressure between the clutch disc to the flywheel.
The clutch will have to be replaced. The pressure plate could possibly be resurfaced but usually it is as cost effective to replace the pressure plate.
Clutch, yes. Pressure plate, No.
When pressure is put on the sides of a plate, a earthquake might form!

Pressure plate to flywheel torque is (ft lbs) 14 to 20.
The pressure plate is what the clutch presses against to drive the transmission. The plate is a metal round disk that needs to be smooth for a good connection to the clutch.
It's not connected to the cover. The pressure plate is bolted to the flywheel with the clutch disc sandwiched in between.
