FIA C1 XL Tillett seat
FIA approved to 8855-1999
This competiton focused seat is a new direction for Tillett racing seats and is based on the popular B6 S.
It retains the compact dimensions of the B6 but also has a side impact head support.
The seat can be used comfortably without any lower padding, giving ultimate feel and feedback but at the same time retains great peripherical vision, which is essential in a competition seat.
The ability of this seat to be used without covering and the carefully sculptured shape mean that you can achieve a lower driving position with more legroom. Its perfect ergonomic shape gives excellent support, whilst at the same time leaves the shoulders free to help steer the car unhindered.
The C1 is ultra rigid but under impact envelops and decelerates the occupant in a controlled and limited way to avoid injury.
This safety keeps the competitor in the intended position within the cockpit. The rigidity is vital for stopping the harness and hans device from becoming loose during an accident. Another benefit is that the uncovered version is ideal in harsh environments.
The C1 has an XL size for drivers of over 100kg with a waist size over 36".
These seats are manufactured using the Tillett internally developed moulding system, which creats perfect laminates that are super strong and consistent.
The C1 XL is supplied as standard without panels and its weight is light from 7,3kg.
The C1-44 XL is for those vehicles that have a narrow cockpit and the C1-47 XL for cars where the space is available.
With the C1-47 XL, the continuous rolled edge of the composite is uncut, giving more aesthetically pleasing line to the edge of the seat and making it easier to slide in and out of the car quickly. Therefore, if you have the space, it is recommended to use this model.
Both cut and uncut models are FIA homologated to 8855-1999.
