The Mech Cat Wheelbase QR Cover is a protective PLA+ cap that covers the quick release on your sim racing wheelbase when no wheel is fitted, available in 48 mm for Moza / Simagic / Conspit CDR and 68 mm for Asetek.
It keeps dust and dirt out of the connector, the part through which the direct drive wheelbase passes signal and torque to the wheel. It goes on and comes off in seconds, with no tools or extra fixings, and is particularly useful in open cockpits or when you store your wheels separately.

Which version should you choose?
It depends on the quick release your wheelbase uses. The 48 mm version matches the Moza / Simagic / Conspit CDR QR and the 68 mm one the Asetek QR, which also covers the front of the base. If in doubt, measure the outer diameter of your wheelbase connector.
Compatibility
- Wheelbases with a Moza / Simagic / Conspit CDR quick release, 48 mm version
- Asetek wheelbases with quick release, 68 mm version
- Used with the wheel removed; it does not interfere with fitting the wheel
- Independent of the simulator, the PC and the console: it is a purely mechanical part
Frequently asked questions
What is the cover actually for?
To cover the wheelbase quick release when no wheel is fitted and stop dust, dirt or moisture getting into the connector.
Which version do I need for my wheelbase?
The 48 mm one if your base uses the Moza / Simagic / Conspit CDR quick release and the 68 mm one if it is an Asetek base. You choose it in the selector on this page.
How does it fit?
It sits over the QR and stays put by its own fit. No tools or screws are needed, and it comes off just as quickly when you want to fit the wheel.
What is it made of?
High-quality PLA+, a light and hard-wearing material that protects the connector without damaging any components.
Can it stay on with the wheel fitted?
No. It is meant for the time the wheel is off, which is when the connector is exposed.
