XAP 6-POINT QUICK RELEASE

XAP 6-Point Quick Release: precision and reliability for Motorsport

Drawing on nearly 30 years of expertise in racing equipment, XAP has developed its 6-Point Quick Release to meet the demanding requirements for precision, rigidity and reliability in Motorsport applications.

Engineered for high mechanical loads, particularly in GT, Rally and Endurance racing, this quick-release steering wheel system ensures a rigid and precise mechanical connection between the steering wheel and steering column.

Precision-machined from high-strength 7075-T6 aluminium, it features an optimised design and extremely tight manufacturing tolerances.

Entirely designed, machined and inspected at XAP's facilities in Calvisson, France, it benefits from XAP's expertise in mechanical engineering and the manufacturing of high-performance Motorsport components.

Key features and benefits

• High mechanical rigidity: designed to withstand the demanding mechanical loads encountered in racing applications.
• Precision machining: tolerances below 0.01 mm on the splined connection.
• Zero-play fit: no axial or radial play (0 µm), ensuring a precise connection between the steering wheel and steering column.
• Excellent angular repeatability: better than ±0.03° for accurate steering wheel repositioning.
• High mechanical strength: exceeding 1,500 N·m.
• Durable mechanism: dry-running design requiring minimal maintenance.
• Validated reliability: tested under vibration, fatigue and mechanical load conditions.
• Made in France: in-house design, CNC machining and dimensional inspections at XAP's facilities.

Designed for racing steering wheel applications

The XAP 6-Point Quick Release is designed for GT, Rally and Endurance racing applications, including multifunction racing steering wheels.

It is engineered for integration with compatible XAP steering column hub shafts and steering columns.

Its mechanical design allows quick steering wheel removal and refitting while maintaining a precise steering connection.

An optional electrical connection interface can be provided upon request, depending on the application's requirements. Please contact us to discuss the appropriate configuration.

The product is supplied individually, without the steering column hub shaft or additional accessories.
