![]() This type of gear usually has 3 to 6 ‘dogs’ on each gear and there is a lot of free space for them to engage this means there is normally quite a lot of play when in gear and why you often see race cars juddering forward and backwards when going down the pitlane. Dog engagement:Ī dog engagement box is what you will commonly find in race cars and on most sequential gearboxes. ![]() Because of the load on the teeth and the fact there is not much space the gear needs to be doing almost exactly the same speeds to be able to engage and this is what the cones do but they cannot overcome the engine brake without doing damage to the gearbox and so the clutch is needed for all changes. With this type of gearbox there is virtually no play when in gear but there is a lot of surface area with load on holding the gear in place. This type of gear is engaged using cones to match the speed of the gears and then held in place with multiple ‘teeth’. For this to be accurate it also needs to simulate the different type of gearboxes for dog engagement and also synchromesh: Synchromesh:Ī synchromesh gearbox is what you would commonly find in your road car. The main problem with all shifters on the market at the moment is that you cannot simulate missed gears nor have any interaction with the software. HYDRAULIC SHIFT LOCK MECHANISM EXPLAINED (OPTIONAL EXTRA CAN BE RETRO FITTED) We do this for ultimate durability on all the critical components, creating a shifter designed to last a lifetime. Once the material has been hardened only the most specialised carbide/diamond tools can be used to perforate it. We use the highest quality steel 835M19 often found in aerospace applications and go one step further to apply heat treatment to case harden the material. In a market where plastic products have dominated, people often think ‘metal’ is considered the hardest or toughest material that could be used. One big differentiator of our gear shifters to the current market is the material. Shift-lock mechanism (see below for details).Pro-Sim by Quaife sequential shifter plug and play.This shifter can be directly bolted underneath using 4 M6 bolts or alternatively you can bolt our attachment plate to the shifter and bolt through the 4 holes from the top into your setup What is included: The main advancement on this version is the optional active shifting that uses a hydraulic system and software to only allow gear shifts when the gear is unloaded exactly like on a real car. The new design of shifter is quieter than our version 1 and also more robust, we have also added an adjustable plunger now so that you can chose the exact strength of gear change required. ![]() The new design features a gear lever that is easier to adjust and to many more positions. Following on from the success of our version 1 sequential shifter we have upgraded the design based on feedback.
