Motordrive Aluminium Seat Mounting Frame

The Motordrive Aluminium Seat Mounting Frame is a precision-engineered side-mount seat installation system designed for use with the Motordrive FIA 8855-1999 seat range.

Manufactured in the UK from high-strength T6-6082 aluminium, this seat frame system is designed to provide a secure and correctly positioned mounting solution for motorsport bucket seats. When installed correctly, it ensures the seat is positioned at the correct angle for optimal driver control, comfort and safety.

The system consists of two rails and four adjustable brackets, allowing flexible positioning to suit different vehicle layouts. The rails can be configured to turn under or out depending on installation requirements.

These mounting frames have been tested at FIA-approved facilities alongside Motordrive seats and are designed to withstand the loads associated with FIA 8855-1999 standards, providing confidence in high-stress motorsport environments.

Correct seat mounting is critical in motorsport safety. In the event of an impact, the seat must remain securely attached to the vehicle structure, making a properly engineered mounting system essential.

Supplied in plain aluminium finish as standard, with optional anodised finish available.
