THE B7 – FIA CARBON FIBRE CAR SEAT
At 3.8 kg the B7 is the world's lightest seat homologated to FIA standard 8855-1999. This is arguably the best performance racing seat on the market due to its incredibly compact design, high strength, ultralight weight, unrivalled support and manufacturing accuracy.
We can confidently state "Tillett are the only brand in the world that offer a FIA homologated 8855 – 1999 seat, usable in competition at 3.8kg". This is achieved by manufacturing with our highly developed in house moulding technique. Tillett constantly invests in high levels of research and development.
As with all Tillett seats, the B7 has a carefully contoured shape that supports the whole upper torso, leaving the shoulders free to steer the car unhindered. A high level of support throughout the seat and the removal of all pressure points is so comfortable, that the seat needs no covering at all. This not only helps with practicality on open top cars but also allows a much lower driving position than a seat with a thick foam cushion.
With its ultra-rigid design, the B7 retains the occupant in the intended position within the cockpit. Vital for stopping the harness and Hans device from becoming loose during an accident.
There are different edge cuts available. The B7-44 FIA is "Edges on" meaning the seat has a continuous rolled edge. The B7-40 FIA is "Edges off", with the rolled edges by the leg cut away to fit in restricted width cockpits.
Available with no seat inserts, standard inserts, or custom inserts.
There are currently tariffs on all Tillett parts which will be assessed once an order is processed. We will reach out before the order is fully processed to confirm the tariff rates and get approval.
