The Ascher Racing B16-USB is a CNC-machined aluminium button box with 16 programmable inputs and adjustable magnetic paddles for sim racing, PC-compatible over USB and fitting most wheel bases via its universal 6×70 mm mount.

Machined from black-anodised automotive aluminium with laser engraving, it carries Ascher Racing's magnetic motorsport paddles —with force adjustable from 260 to 800 g using the included magnets and spacers— and comes in two button layouts (B16M and B16L) to suit your rim's geometry.
