2 3 T7 New Style T11

The first “Tillett Seats” were designed as fully covered seats and the T7 remains our most New style T11t as used by 2017 Junior CIK-FIA OK World Champion Dexter Patterson and 2016 CIK-FIA popular covered kart seat. Like the T8 it is a slightly deeper seat, which gives excellent World KZ Champion Paulo De Conto support, not only for the ribs but also for the legs. The cover gives a non-slip surface and the thin but effective padding below the surface protects the body from damage. The T7 has a flat The T11 is the seat shape most often used by the professional karting teams and manufacturers. With area on the base to help get the seat low in the chassis and the front edge has 2 cm removed young drivers growing ever taller, there was a need to drop the centre of gravity. We designed the T11 range to obtain a low centre of gravity, whilst at the same time maintaining a chest position upright to enable more seat movement within the chassis. The T7 shape lends itself to pro karts, T7 where endurance racing requires the greater comfort. Also, the more rounded back of the T7 enough to allow the shoulders to turn powerfully. This helps a driver retain full control of their kart. The helps the L and XL sizes fit in the narrow gap between the two Honda engines.

4 5 T10 The T10 is the seat that was used by Nyck De Vries to win the 2011 CIK FIA World Championship

The T10 was developed to avoid positioning problems that can occur in some types of older chassis. Over the years the seat position has been moving closer to the rear axle but karts before 2002 needed the seat pushed forward to remove the weight from the rear wheels. T10 1/4

Fixed front seat stays sometimes limit the space available for the seat to move forward. The seat will rise up on the front stays as it’s pushed forward, therefore making it impossible t o mount the seat forward and low. The T10 has a smaller dimension A than our other types, thus allowing dimension B to be large enough to allow the weight to be distributed correctly for the conditions or chassis type. This seat would be popular in classes where the engine is heavy and there is a need to take the weight off the rear.

Although not as popular as other models nowadays, some drivers still prefer this shape liking the extra comfort from the round base.

The T10 also has one of the most extensive size ranges and includes a very good set of sizes for juniors, the C, XScd, Scd and S being particularly popular.

T10 SPECIFICATIONS Sizes: C, De Vries, XSlb (Stroll3) XScd, XS, Scd, S, Manetti, MS, ML, L, XL and XXL. XSlb (Stroll 3) is a special extra low back XS T10. De Vries is a C T10 with 1 cm extra overall width and 1cm extra back height. Cover colours: Fire Red, Royal Blue, Jet Black and Charcoal Grey. Composite colours: Clear. T10 seats made with KEVLAR® or carbon are only available with visible KEVLAR®- carbon fibre colours. See Page 14 for seat rigidity information.

T250 Used to win the 2008 CIK FIA European Superkart Championship

The T250 seat is made especially for the high speeds of the long circuit gearbox classes. The T250 keeps the driver low and the headrest is designed not to disrupt the airflow over the wing. The covering prevents the driver sliding in the seat while the removal of the cover from the base lowers the driver and helps in the wet. Top 250 driver Mark Owen was instrumental in the design and development of this product and has been vital in tuning the seat to meet the requirements of these high speed karts.

CAGE - Body Support System. Composite support panels that when fitted add extra depth to the sides of the seats. Now with black suede exterior and special shock mitigation foam.

Kart seats are available in many different shapes and sizes but they are not depth or height adjustable, which means that the fit of the seat is nearly always a compromise.

Traditionally the only way to achieve this depth was to either use a seat with deepened sides, or to produce a wrap-around seat that curved around the body. The problem with these ideas is that a deeper seat fouls the arms and a wraparound seat could damage the ribs if a driver were thrown from a kart; even worse injury could occur if the seat were to trap the driver in rather than let them be thrown clear. Ribcage Body Support System The Ribcage body support system comprises of two “bolt on” panels that give extra lateral support for the upper body.

If a driver should be thrown forward or out of the kart when using the Ribcage panels, they are flexible enough to release the driver from the kart.

A good tight fit around the chest is essential to help protect the ribs and hip bones from damage. By using the Ribcage panels you can choose the perfect height and depth for your chest shape. By using the optional Ribcage Spacer Kit, the width around the rib area is also adjustable. The Ribcage Spacer Kit contains 6 x M8 long seat bolt sets and 18 x 4mm nylon spacer washers.

The Ribcage does not alter the properties of the original seat by changing the rigidity and therefore will only have a positive effect on the lap times. If a seat with rib padding is to be used the use of a 40 mm diameter x 4 mm thick nylon spacer between the seat and Ribcage is recommended. This ensures Ribcage Spacer Kit that the bolts can be tightened sufficiently by crushing the foam completely.

Tillett Racing Seats Chainguard Tillett Racing Seats were the first company to introduce enclosed chainguards into karting.

Enclosed chainguards are mandatory on all karts racing in the UK and in CIK classes. All Tillett guards are wide enough to allow the use of sprocket protectors and have an adjustable midpoint that allows the sprocket to run centrally in the guard. The guards are easy to cut and modify to fit most engine / kart combinations, are smooth on the inside Nylon Plastic Guard and have no unnecessary ridges or holes in which to trap oil and dirt. Each guard includes a universal fitting kit; this allows the guard to be completely removed in seconds which makes it easier and cleaner to work on the kart.

The Tillett range of enclosed chainguards include 3 constructions Nylon, GRP and Carbon Kevlar®, they are all sturdy and rigidly mounted. The guards are available to fit engine types RHD/LHD 100 cc, 60 cc Minikarts, OK and X30 with a longer version for Rotax Max. There is also a carbon KZ and a Honda a GX160 version.

The tough Nylon chainguard is suitable for the Rotax Max TAG engine and for 60 cc Minikart, X30 and OK engines when the front is cut away. The Tillett Nylon chainguard is available in black or red and has a long steel bracket mounting kit as standard. The long brackets fix high up on the guard keeping it more rigidly located and this also helps move the fixings above the exhaust of the Max, making removal of the M6 fixing nuts easier. The guard weighs 402g in its uncut Rotax form. Composite GRP Guard

The clear translucent composite GRP guards are strong and rigid and do not wobble due to the honeycomb core on the mounting side. The types available are; RHD/LHD 100 cc, 60 cc Minikart, OK and X30 with a longer version for Rotax Max, plus a model for the Honda GX160 4 stroke which weighs only 222 grams. The RHD/Rotax composite guard weighs from 300g to 365g. The bracket system is the same as the nylon guard but the brackets are shorter due to the more rigid nature of the composite. The Honda guard has its own engine specific rigid bracket system in steel.

The Carbon Kevlar® fibre Tillett Chainguard is ultra-light at 170g in a RHD/Rotax/TAG version and 138g when cut for the 60 cc Minikart, OK and X30 classes. Unlike many products that use carbon look materials the Tillett carbon guard uses genuine carbon fibre and is Kevlar® brand fibre lined for ballistic protection. Carbon can often be brittle if made incorrectly and could crack if you were to throw a chain. The Tillett carbon Kevlar® guard is very tough. It also has two smooth sides making it easy to clean. The Carbon Guard guard comes with a long bracket fitting kit as standard. Lightweight carbon fibre mounting brackets are also available as an extra cost option.

There is also a Honda GX160 carbon guard available at 170g.

Carbon KZ chainguard This lightweight KZ guard is made from carbon so only weighs 52g. The guard is shaped to avoid the nearby KZ exhaust and due to its carbon construction will not melt like a plastic guard. The attachment kit is designed to be rigid, easy to remove and fit many different chassis.

RAIN MEISTER Sometimes the only way to get grip from a cold, wet or slippery track surface is to put downward pressure on the two outside tyres. On these occasions lifting the seat up will help to get a higher centre of gravity and in certain conditions can help attain extra grip. The problem is that many small tweaks like this can’t be Fixing Kits achieved fast enough when it rains. The Rain Meister speeds up the task.

CARBON PARTS Exhaust brackets - Lightweight carbon exhaust fixing brackets are available. There are both a 180 and a 150 mm long version. They are 8 mm thick and are ideally suited to fitting the Rotax Max exhaust. Typically they would normally be ordered in a pair for a Rotax Max, 1 long and 1 short.

CARBON CHAINGUARD BRACKET - A carbon chainguard holding bracket is also available. (You need two for one guard)

CARBON SPROCKET PROTECTOR - Available to special order; these lightweight sprocket protectors stop a chain from coming off and prevents the sprocket from hitting curbs. They are so light they add little to the rotational weight and are especially useful where there is not very much gap between the sprocket carrier and axle bearing hanger. Two sizes in 210 and 225 mm diameter.

RIGIDITY OF A KART SEAT EXTRA RIGID XR - Commonly known as ‘The Rope Seat’ it has enormous strength around the outside edge while it still allows the front to flex a little. This extra rigid specification is designated by placing the letters XR after the T + number. They have a dramatic effect on the chassis handling. Hand made only. Tillett Racing Seats were the first people to discover that seat stiffness affected lap times. Changing the seat rigidity alters the amount of weight transferred to the outside front tyre, it is also partly responsible for the amount the inside rear wheel THE HYBRID VGR - For those who want a rigid seat across the seat stays whilst still allowing some diagonal flex, we have the VGR. This is like a regular VG can lift through the corners. This gives you the ability to balance a chassis that may not be perfectly adjusted for the track surface, driving style or weather seat but is totally rigid across the top edge. It is possible to make this specification in T5 Rev, T8 Handmade, T9, T9.5 T10 and T11 Handmade shapes. conditions. The T9.5 VRS is a new version of this VGR that is soft down the middle with rigid sides. This allows the seat to be very reclined but still transfers weight to the front outside wheel. Hand made only. Standard OEM seats supplied with many karts are made to a price and are often inconsistent in rigidity and strength. To make sure that the seat you buy this year will be the same size and rigidity as one you buy next, Tillett Racing Seats are made to set specifications. They are also unique in that they can be bought in 8 different rigidities including the hybrid VGR /VRS. The rigidities which are available in each shape are shown on the size / rigidity guide.

The rigidities which are available in each shape are shown on the size / rigidity guide. See above.

New Style T5 and New style T11 seats. These are made with a new process that allows different rigidities to be made using a highly accurate mechanised process and the system can make a seats weighing within 5 g of each other. Therefore, the rigidity can be tuned to the specification equalling the handmade seats. There are four rigidities in the “New style” specifications and all four are relevant to the rigidities commonly used by the kart chassis in use today.

T8 - The T8 seats are injected into a predetermined cavity and the edges are cut by robot. Therefore they are always consistent. For the T8 there are two options of flexibility, the T8 (standard) and T8 soft. Should you want more variance in this shape, the T8 Hand (Handmade) version is available to give a full range of rigidities in the injected T8 shape.

T5 REV, T8 HAND, T9, T9.5, T10 and New style T11 Shapes. We offer all of these seat models in 7 rigidities (See guide). The full cover T7 does not have the VTi, XR or VGR variant.

FLEXIBLE VTI, and VG - The flexible VG seats are a favourite with the Rotax Max drivers and almost always used to win the competitive Euro Max series. “V” seats are made of non-standard composite materials; they are lightweight and we find that many people use the “VG” seat to good effect in all sorts of different classes. Using the same material specifications, there is also the ultra-flexible VTi and this is ordered by customers determined to get the most flexible seat possible. The two stroke Cadet / Minikart classes seem to prefer this specification. VG and VTi are two rigidity specifications that are available in the New Style T5 and T11 seats.

THE “T” - This was developed for the recent karts in KF and KZ but is a useful rigidity option for many karts falling in between the popular Standard and VG rigidities. The T11t spec was used in an OTK chassis to win the 2015 KFJ World Championship with Logan Sargeant and the Jorrit Pex used it to win the 2015 KZ World Championship and Paulo De Conto in the 2016 World KZ Championship. The “t” is one of the rigidities available in the New Style T5 and T11 seats.

STANDARD RIGIDITY - This is based around the majority of karts basic uncovered seats. The standard rigidity model of each shape only has the letter T plus its number, for example the T8. “Standard” is one of the rigidities available in the New Style T5 and T11 seats.

RIGID “R” - A thicker, stiffer version of the standard seat is shown by including the letter “R” after the T number. Hand made only.

14 15 LIGHTWEIGHT CARBON FIBRE SEATS It is easy to make a seat light; it is not so easy to make a lightweight seat that can hold a driver securely without breakage during an accident. Using a carbon-aramid fabric is almost irrelevant if the resin and curing processes do not compliment the expensive fibres, most of the seat strength can be lost and fracturing will occur. All Tillett seats made from KEVLAR® carbon are built to be on the limit of weight but with ample strength. The materials used are never compromised to save cost, you are always buying the best materials we can find.

The lightweight KEVLAR® Carbon seats can be as stiff or as soft as all our other types. The rigidity that matches our standard T5, T7, T8, T9, T10, and T11 seats and most other original equipment, is designated “K”, an example of this would be T8K. To match the flexible VG seats, use the letters “KG”, for example T11KG. Ultra-light and flexible seats are designated with the letters “KP” and for a lightweight, rigid seat, use “CR” after the usual “T” shape designation. For an extra rigid seat use a CXR. The CR and extra rigid CXR models are mostly made with carbon fibre to give the required stiffness. The KP, KG, K specifications are made with a mixture of KEVLAR® with other fibres including carbon to make them flex differently.

KART SEAT SIZING When fitting yourself or your customer into a new Tillett seat please take into consideration that it is usual for people just sitting in a stationary seat, to pick a seat that is too big. In a new seat, it is wise for them choose a fit that leaves no finger width gap at the leg bone, hip bone and the whole side of the ribs.

This will offer the best protection. With a loose fit, the chances of damaging the body are much higher. It is also important not to have a perfect fit in For our range of lightweight sports, one area and to be loose at another.

PLEASE NOTE: The most accurate way to gauge someone’s size over the telephone is by asking for his or her weight and waist size. The waist guide is the most definite measurement of the two, so when in doubt go by this. The graph is an approximate guide and may not work for people who are exceptionally tall or have wider than average hips. A driver with wide hipbones may order a wide hip (WH) seat in the T11 range. Please take into account when ordering that uncovered seats will be a little larger than the covered types due to the lack of foam and covering.

SIZING CHILDREN For the younger drivers it is better to use age and weight. There are many choices and it is better to not get fixated on one particular shape but to select the model that best fits the child’s proportions.

16 17 SEAT DIMENSIONS INSTRUCTIONS TO HELP WITH ACCURATE SEAT FITTING Kart seat positioning is a difficult but very important job. The driver is half the weight of the vehicle so if their weight is out of position the kart will be unbalanced and difficult to set up. Many manufacturers will give you a set of dimensions which can confuse you unless you are using the exact shape and size of the seat that they used to get the information in the first place. Therefore to get the correct balance in the chassis it is important to understand where the drivers back is in relation to the rear axle. These instructions are to help with attaining the most common position for the average 70 kg driver. Sometimes a Ccd 25.5 25.5 37.5 8.5 26.5 C 25.5 27 37.5 7 31 compromise position will have to be used for smaller or larger drivers. CL 26.5 28 38.8 8 28.5 XScd 27.5 29.5 40.5 6.5 32 To accurately fit a kart seat place a flat sheet of plywood, or something similar, on your kart stand, then space the chassis tubes from the wood to give you XS WT (Dorian) 27.5 31.5 40.5 8 30.5 the correct ground clearance. If you do not have this information, set your kart up on a flat piece of ground with the correct tyre pressures. Take a note of the T5 REV S 29.5 31.5 42.5 6.5 34 distance the seat protrudes below the chassis tubes when you have around 15 mm clearance between the floor and the seat base. You now have one of the two Manetti 31 34 44 8 36 MS 31.5 34.5 45 8.5 36.5 most important dimensions to record. We have found that on karts built less than 8 years old, do not let the seat base protrude below the chassis tubes more ML 33 36 45.5 9 37.5 than 5 mm.

Mini 20 19.5 33 4.5 23 C 24.5 25.5 40 9 30 To get the second vital dimension, which is the actual position of the drivers back, take a 90° line (approx.) from one side of the spine recess, which runs down XScd 25.5 25.5 40.5 9 32.5 the middle of the back of the seat, and measure the shortest distance to the axle surface. With a 70 kg driver this dimension is currently an average of 15.5 cm Scd 27.5 30 43.5 9 34.5 but can be further back at around 13.5 cm with a KZ. S 28 30.5 44 9 37 (See picture showing “Dimension 2”) (Pre 2005 karts 21.5 cm) (Karts aged between 2005 to 2009 use 18 cm) MScd 30 32 46 9 33.5 MS 30 32 46.5 9 37.5 T7 ML 31 33 48 9 38 You must not use the spine recess to measure this, as it varies in depth too much between each type of seat. Please note that bolting a substantial amount of L 32.5 36 48.5 9 39.5 lead weight to the back of the seat can make a difference to the seat position. It forces you to position the seat further forward to achieve the same balance. XL 34 37.5 50.5 9 40 Before marking the holes, bend the flat metal tabs of the seat stays so that the flat parts are parallel to the surfaces of the seat.

Extra seat stays can now be fitted if used. ML 32 33.5 47 9 38 Keep the head of the bolt away from the top edge of the seat. Fasteners that are fitted too near the top edge of the seat will bruise the ribs. Try and use a low L 34 35.5 49 9 39.5 XL 36 38 50.5 9 40 A profile washer up around the rib area if possible.
