Description

 

The Tillett B10 is a premium competition-style seat designed for larger drivers in dual-purpose and trackday cars. The carbon fiber shell is contoured to leave the shoulders free for unhindered steering, and the flat headrest makes it easy to get in and out.

Like all Tillett auto racing seats, the B10 draws on extensive experience in karting, where the seat is a working part of the suspension and must be a perfect fit to the driver. While other brands start with a rectangular shell and fill it with padding to fit the driver, the shell of the B10 is contoured to fit larger drivers without any excess padding. This allows more contact for better control, while also allowing the driver to sit lower than most other brands.

The B10 is already very narrow -- even the XL measures just 48.5cm at the widest part of the rolled lip edge -- but for cramped cockpits on the XL only Tillett offers an "Edges Off" option which shaves 3.5cm from the overall width. Note that this option makes the seat a little less forgiving when getting in and out. The rolled edge also contributes some fatigue resistance, so the "Edges On" version should be chosen if at all possible. "Edges Off" is not available on the standard size.

Two shoulder harness slots and one sub strap slot allow the use of 4-, 5-, or 6-point autocross and racing harness, but instead of lap belt slots the sides are cut down for use with a stock 3-point seat belt as well. The 65° (from horizontal) seatback angle and 8° (from vertical) headrest angle are compatible with a standard Model 20 HANS Device. Genuine carbon fiber shell has gloss black gelcoat on the outside and clearcoated carbon weave on the seating surface, with a synthetic suede headrest pad. Weighs just 4.5 to 5.4kg (9.9 to 11.9 lb) depending on size and options. Designed and manufactured in the UK. Not FIA homologated.
