Product Description The Heusinkveld Sim Handbrake Black is a premium, high-precision load-cell handbrake engineered for serious sim racers who demand accurate force feedback, realistic handbrake modulation, and professional-grade durability. Designed for rally, drift, rallycross, touring-car simulations and competitive esports, this advanced handbrake provides authentic mechanical feel, customizable resistance, and exceptional build quality suited to home cockpits, aluminium-profile rigs, and professional simulator environments. Featuring a robust 120 kg load cell, progressive resistance system, and extensive adjustability, the Heusinkveld handbrake delivers true-to-life braking sensitivity, allowing drivers to perform controlled handbrake turns, drift initiations, Scandinavian flicks, tight hairpin rotations and precise braking modulation with confidence and consistency. This handbrake is a top-tier upgrade for sim racing enthusiasts looking for realistic input, precise control, and long-term durability. Key Features Load-Cell Based Performance Built with a powerful 120 kg load cell for highly accurate force measurement. Capable of producing up to approximately 22 kg of lever force for realistic handbrake control. Linear force response provides predictable, repeatable braking feel ideal for competitive driving. Realistic Two-Stage Resistance System Dual-stage resistance system replicates real rally and drift handbrake mechanics. Initial coil spring simulates pad-to-disc slack. Progressive elastomer springs provide smooth, natural resistance during braking force buildup. Three elastomer stiffness levels (soft, medium, stiff) allow full customization for driving style and vehicle type. Fully Adjustable Lever & Mounting Geometry Lever can be positioned vertically or horizontally depending on cockpit layout. Adjustable lever angle of up to approximately 26 degrees for ergonomic fine-tuning. Optional adapter plate provides yaw adjustment of up to approximately 22.5 degrees for aluminium-profile rigs. Compact base allows flexible positioning within tight cockpit spaces. High-Strength Construction Manufactured using CNC precision laser-cut stainless steel. Powder-coated finish for long-term protection and durability. Designed to withstand heavy, repeated use in rally and drift environments. USB Plug-and-Play Connectivity Integrated electronics and controller. Connects directly to PC simulators via USB. No calibration required — recognized as an independent input device. Extensive Software Customization (SmartControl Compatible) Adjust output curves, deadzones and force behavior. Save multiple profiles for different cars (e.g. gravel rally, tarmac rally, drift, touring car). Make real-time adjustments using SmartControl Live. Versatile Use Cases Designed for rally stages, drift practice, rallycross, touring-car sims, GT simulators, and competitive esports. Ideal for advanced home cockpits, aluminium-profile rigs, and professional training simulators. Specifications Heusinkveld Sim Handbrake Black Specification Detail Sensor Type 120 kg load cell Max Lever Force Approx. 22 kg Base Dimensions 317 × 162 × 84 mm Construction Stainless steel, powder-coated Weight Approx. 2.17 kg Lever Orientation Vertical or horizontal Lever Angle Adjustment Up to approx. 26 degrees Yaw Adjustment Up to approx. 22.5 degrees with adapter plate Resistance System Two-stage: coil spring + elastomer springs Elastomer Options Soft, medium, stiff Connection USB plug-and-play Software Support SmartControl & SmartControl Live Compatible Platforms PC simulators (Windows) Typical Use Cases Rally, drift, rallycross, sim racing cockpits, esports, driver training Why This Handbrake Stands Out The Heusinkveld Sim Handbrake Black offers one of the most realistic and versatile braking experiences available in sim racing. Its load-cell accuracy, progressive mechanical feel, heavy-duty construction, and customizable resistance system place it far above standard handbrake units. Whether you are mastering hairpins in a rally simulator or initiating controlled drifts, this handbrake provides the precision and feedback needed for high-level performance. It’s a true upgrade for sim racers who want reliability, consistency, and real-car braking dynamics in their cockpit.
