W4 Car Seat

THE W4 – CAR SEAT

The W4 has been designed predominately for those drivers wishing to lay down at a formula car driving angle. This wider XL version of the W3 is most suited to a people over 100kg. The W4 measures 46.5cm at the external widest point of its outer rolled edge.

Low profile seatbelt harness holes are included, enabling use of a five or six point harness. A crotch strap is strongly recommended with any reclined seat.

The low back W models are most suitable when a headrest is not practical, maybe for an application where there is already a headrest support in existence.

The weight of a W4 with the backframe is approximately 3.6kg and 2kg without.

The W4 has a gloss black GRP front surface with the additional option of a two-panel set of Dinamica® suede covered pads.

The W4 is available as a single skin shell, or with a floor mountable backframe. The backframe consists of a second composite moulding bonded to the front skin, making the W4 a fully self-supporting rigid structure. Its four captive M8 fittings are in the base of the seat as standard, or to special order, they can be provided with side mounts, allowing the use of the Tillett 2° bracket sets.
