Bolts Matter.
In an attempt to cut costs, our competitors have made their plates smaller and decreased the number of bolts in their cockpit assemblies. While they claim that less bolts results in an easier build process, we chose to keep our frame as strong as posssible and just give you a better assembly tool.
Our Hex T-Handle is included free with every frame.
More Bolts = Stronger Racing Simulator.
Distributing the load across more bolts increases the overall load capacity of the joint. Each bolt contributes to the joint's ability to withstand forces and stresses.
More bolts provide additional points of connection, which can enhance the stability of the joint. This is particularly important in applications where the plates may experience dynamic loads or vibrations.
Having multiple bolts creates redundancy in the joint. If one bolt were to fail, the others can still provide support and prevent a complete failure of the joint.
More bolts can help in distributing shear and tensile stresses more evenly across the joint. This is particularly important in situations where the joint is subjected to forces acting in different directions. Like sim racing wheelbases.
A greater number of bolts can help in achieving a more uniform distribution of stress across the joint. This can reduce the risk of localized stress concentrations that might lead to failure.
