Fanatec QR2 Base-Side (Type-M) — CNC-Machined Billet Aluminium Quick Release Adapter

The Fanatec QR2 Base-Side (Type-M) is the next-generation base-side half of the Fanatec QR2 quick release system, CNC-machined from a single block of billet aluminium for rock-solid, zero-flex wheel mounting on compatible Fanatec direct drive wheel bases. The precision shaft and robust locking mechanism deliver race-grade performance for sim racers who demand the highest standard of rigidity, repeatability and feel through every corner.

Key Features

• Billet Aluminium Construction: CNC-machined from a single block of aircraft-grade billet aluminium for maximum torsional stiffness and zero flex under heavy force feedback loads.
• Tool-Free Wheel Swaps: One-handed, sub-second wheel changes with a positive locking action — no tools, no play, no compromise.
• QR2 Quick Release System: Compatible with the full Fanatec QR2 wheel-side ecosystem, including Formula, GT, Rally and round rims equipped with the QR2 wheel-side adapter.
• Type-M Mount: Designed to mount to compatible Fanatec direct drive wheel bases featuring the M-style base interface.
• Integrated Signal Transmission: Reliable electrical contacts transmit wheel button, encoder, display and clutch paddle signals without slip rings or brushes.
• Zero-Play Engagement: Precision-lapped tapered shaft eliminates wheel wobble at lock and under high-torque direction changes.

Compatibility

The QR2 Base-Side (Type-M) is intended as a replacement or upgrade component for compatible Fanatec direct drive wheel bases using the Type-M base-side interface. Always check your existing base specification before ordering to confirm QR2 Base-Side (Type-M) compatibility.

Why Upgrade to QR2?

The Fanatec QR2 platform is engineered to handle the torque of modern direct drive wheel bases up to 25 Nm without flex, play or degradation over time. Upgrading to QR2 unlocks stiffer feedback, improved feel through curbs and kerb strikes, faster driver swaps during endurance races, and long-term reliability across thousands of mount/unmount cycles.
