RRS 6-Point Single-Seater Harness – FIA 8853-2016

The RRS 6-Point Single-Seater Harness is a FIA-approved competition harness specifically designed for single-seater race cars where compact cockpit fitment, secure driver restraint and fast in-seat adjustment are essential.

Built to FIA 8853-2016 standards, this lightweight motorsport harness features 2” HANS®-compatible webbing, aluminium adjusters and a quick-release buckle system for professional-level safety and usability.

Designed for formula-style cockpits and narrow seating positions, the harness allows drivers to tighten or loosen the straps while seated using integrated red adjustment pull straps.

Ideal for single-seater racing, hillclimb, sprint and lightweight motorsport applications.


FIA 8853-2016 Approved Single-Seater Harness

The RRS single-seater harness is homologated to FIA 8853-2016 regulations, making it suitable for Motorsport UK and FIA-sanctioned competition use.

The 6-point configuration improves:

  • Driver restraint under braking
  • Seating stability during cornering
  • Anti-submarine protection
  • Overall cockpit safety

Specifically designed for formula-style and narrow cockpit race cars, this harness provides secure fitment without unnecessary bulk.


HANS® Compatible 2” Shoulder Straps

The 2” shoulder straps are designed for compatibility with modern HANS® and FHR systems.

This narrower webbing profile helps:

  • Reduce interference around neck restraints
  • Increase comfort in confined cockpits
  • Maintain proper shoulder restraint alignment

Perfect for modern single-seater safety requirements where frontal head restraint systems are mandatory.

Features include:

  • Aluminium shoulder and ventral strap adjusters
  • Lightweight hardware construction
  • Compact buckle system
  • Quick-release main buckle
  • In-seat adjustment pull straps

The integrated red adjustment straps allow drivers to tighten or loosen the harness while seated in the bucket seat, making cockpit setup faster and more practical during race weekends.


Flexible Motorsport Harness Mounting Options

The harness supports multiple installation methods depending on vehicle setup.

Options include:

  • Bolt-in mounting using 15mm fixing holes
