NexusLink quick release lock pin: overview

This is the replacement lock pin for the NexusLink quick release used on the NexusDrive Elite direct drive bases.

It slides on and off easily and locks the wheel, quick release and motor together with a rock-solid connection – no play, no rattles.

The pin is included with the base; buy this if you lose or damage yours, or want a spare.

Who the nexusLink quick release lock pin is for

NexusDrive Elite owners:

• Drivers who lost or damaged the pin
• Commercial rigs keeping spares

Features in detail

Original fit

Made for the NexusLink quick release.

Solid lock

No play between wheel and base.

Easy on and off

Fast wheel swaps.

Compatibility

NexusLink quick release on NexusDrive Elite Sport, Elite Pro and Elite Ultimate bases.

Building a sim racing or flight setup

Base, rim and pedals. In a modular setup the wheel base holds the force feedback motor, the rim clips on with a quick release and the pedals connect to the base or by USB. Rims and pedals must suit your base, and the base decides which platforms are supported.

Direct drive. Direct drive bases attach the rim straight to the motor for the most detailed and strongest feedback. They need a rigid cockpit or a strong desk mount.

Load cell pedals. A load cell brake measures pressure, not travel, like a real car. It is the single upgrade that improves lap-time consistency the most.

Setup and use

1. Fit the wheel to the quick release.
2. Insert the lock pin until it seats.

Care and maintenance

Keep it clean and dry; replace if bent.

M8 x 25 mm hex screws (set of 6): overview

This set of six M8 x 25 mm hex socket screws is a common fixing across aluminium profile sim rigs and monitor stands – the screw you use with M8 T-nuts to fix brackets, mounts and accessories to the profile.

Keep a set on hand to replace lost screws, add accessories or rebuild your rig layout.

Pair them with M8 T-nuts and washers from our spare parts collection.

Who the M8 x 25 mm hex screws (set of 6) is for

Rig owners who need spare fixings:

• Owners adding or moving accessories
• Anyone rebuilding a rig

Features in detail

M8 x 25 mm

Standard length for profile brackets.

Hex socket head

Tighten with a hex key.

Set of 6

Enough for a bracket or two.

Compatibility

Our aluminium profile cockpits and monitor stands, and other 40 mm 8 mm-slot profile rigs using M8 T-nuts.

Choosing and building a sim rig

Rigidity first. A cockpit exists so the force your wheel base produces goes into your hands, not into a flexing frame. Direct drive bases need a stiff front mount; aluminium profile rigs (40 mm and 80 mm extrusion with 8 mm slots) are the stiffest and most adjustable, while steel tube rigs are lighter and quicker to assemble.

Driving position. GT position puts you upright with the pedals low; formula position reclines the seat and raises the pedals. Check whether the cockpit, seat bracket and pedal mount allow the position you want.

Plan the extras. Monitor stands, shifter and handbrake mounts, keyboard trays and PC shelves bolt onto most profile rigs. Planning them up front avoids drilling or re-assembling later.

Setup and use

1. Insert a T-nut in the profile slot.
2. Position the bracket and tighten the screw with a hex key.

Care and maintenance

Do not overtighten; recheck after the first sessions.

Sold as a matched pair.

Who the 160 x 40 mm die-cast corner brackets is for

Features in detail

Die-cast aluminium

High strength and rigidity.

160 x 40 mm

For aluminium extrusion with 8 mm slots, typically 160x40 mm sections, as used on our NexusRig aluminium cockpits. Bolts and T-nuts are not included – check your profile size before ordering.

Mounting on aluminium profile rigs

The 8 mm slot standard. Most modern sim rigs use 40 mm-based aluminium extrusion (40x40, 40x80, 40x160) with 8 mm slots. Mounts fix with M8 bolts and T-nuts that slide into the slot, so they can be moved and re-angled at any time.

Rigidity and access. Mount heavy or high-force devices (handbrakes, shifters, wheel bases) as close to a vertical upright or cross member as possible. Leave room to get in and out of the seat.

Tools. A set of hex keys (mainly 6 mm for M8) covers nearly every mount. Snug every bolt, test, then do a final tightening once the position is right.

Setup and use

1. Slide M8 T-nuts into both profiles.
2. Fit the bracket across the joint and bolt it on.
3. Square the joint and tighten.

Care and maintenance

Check bolts occasionally on rigs with high torque or motion.

For countersunk mounting points on aluminium profile rigs and accessories with M8 T-nuts.

Mounting on aluminium profile rigs

The 8 mm slot standard. Most modern sim rigs use 40 mm-based aluminium extrusion (40x40, 40x80, 40x160) with 8 mm slots. Mounts fix with M8 bolts and T-nuts that slide into the slot, so they can be moved and re-angled at any time.

Rigidity and access. Mount heavy or high-force devices (handbrakes, shifters, wheel bases) as close to a vertical upright or cross member as possible. Leave room to get in and out of the seat.

Tools. A set of hex keys (mainly 6 mm for M8) covers nearly every mount. Snug every bolt, test, then do a final tightening once the position is right.

Setup and use

1. Insert into the countersunk hole with an M8 T-nut in the slot.
2. Tighten with a 5 mm hex key.

Care and maintenance

Do not over-tighten into aluminium.
