SIMAGIC TB-1 Handbrake

Take your sim racing setup to the next level with the SIMAGIC TB-1 Handbrake. Designed for drift and rally enthusiasts, this handbrake offers an authentic hydraulic feel without the complexity of real fluids. Thanks to precise load-cell technology and robust construction, you have full control over your vehicle at all times, whether initiating a drift or navigating tight hairpin turns.

Highlights

• Authentic driving feel: The two-stage resistance system realistically simulates the pressure point of a real hydraulic racing handbrake (first soft, then hard).

• 100kg Load Cell Sensor: Instead of simple potentiometers, a highly precise 100kg pressure sensor measures your inputs. This enables braking by muscle memory rather than just by travel.

• Dual orientation: The lever can be flexibly adjusted so that you can use the handbrake both vertically (rally/drift style) and horizontally (road car style).

• All-metal construction: Made from CNC-milled aluminum alloy for maximum stability and a high-quality finish.

• Adjustable resistance: By replacing the supplied elastomers (rubber buffers) and springs, you can precisely adjust the hardness and braking distance to your needs.

Who is the TB-1 suitable for?

• Drifters & rally drivers: Those who need a handbrake that reacts immediately and precisely to pressure.

• Sim racers with high demands: Those who want to move away from cheap "switch handbrakes" towards a realistic pressure point.

• Space saver: The slim design integrates well into full rigs.
