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 (soft at first, then firm).

• 100kg Load Cell Sensor: Instead of simple potentiometers, a high-precision 100kg pressure sensor measures your input. This enables braking by muscle memory rather than just travel distance.

• Dual Orientation: The lever is flexibly adjustable, allowing you to use the handbrake both vertically (rally/drift style) and horizontally (road car style).

• Full Metal Construction: Made from CNC-machined aluminum alloy for maximum stability and a premium finish.

• Adjustable Resistance: By swapping the included elastomers (rubber buffers) and springs, you can fine-tune the stiffness and travel exactly to your needs.

Who is the TB-1 suitable for?

• Drifters & rally drivers: Who need a handbrake that reacts instantly and precisely to pressure.

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

• Space saver: The slim design fits well into crowded rigs.
