The B6 Race Car Seat
The B6 is a narrow seat suited to many kit and track day
cars. Its driving angle is based on our popular Caterham R500 seat but
it has some important differences. The headrest has been moved back to
prevent the drivers head from being pushed forward when using a crash
helmet and the shoulder belt holes have been designed to allow the use
of a Hans device.
The hip holes have also been enlarged to help easier
access for wider lap belts. The composite shell is made so that the
outer edge can be either removed for narrow 40 cm tubs or left on to
create a continuous rolled edge around the whole perimeter of the seat.
The B6 is available in Carbon/GRP or Black GRP and is supplied complete
with a Dinamica ® suede covered headrest pad as standard. It can also be
supplied with matching back and cushion panels at extra cost. The
weight of an carbon/GRP B6 is 3.75 kg.
The mounting points for the B6 are under the seat so that theTR1 Tillett Adjustment Runnerscan be bolted directly to the underneath (Please note that the runners
must be spaced 1 cm from the underside of the seat to give clearance for
the handle to operate.). Mounting of the seat is also possible straight
to the floor using a piece of 25 mm box section or runner system and
Nylon spacers can be supplied to tip the seat at different angles
(Please note that the Caterham R500 seat is only available through Caterham.)
