Sim rig floor for simulator cockpit THERMALTAKE Sim Rig Floor black — floor mount for cockpit frame

THERMALTAKE Sim Rig Floor is a black floor mount designed to serve as the base for a simulator cockpit frame. It provides a stable platform for attaching seat mounts, pedal plates and cockpit components, enabling secure installation on the floor. Designed for racing and flight simulator setups, this floor mount improves overall rigidity and positioning of the cockpit frame to deliver repeatable alignment and a consistent user setup.

Advantages

The Sim Rig Floor creates a flat, firm interface between the cockpit frame and the room floor, reducing unwanted movement and improving structural support for pedals, seats and mounted accessories. Its black finish is unobtrusive in home and commercial simulator environments and simplifies cable routing beneath the frame. The mount is engineered to distribute load across a wider surface area, helping to stabilise heavy input devices and maintain a consistent pedal and wheel feel.

Suitable for

• Home racing simulator rigs where a floor-mounted base is required
• Flight simulator cockpits needing a stable floor interface for seats and controls
• Commercial or arcade simulator installations that benefit from increased rigidity
• Setups with heavy pedal plates or seat assemblies that need load distribution

Key specifications

• Finish: black surface designed for unobtrusive appearance
• Function: floor-mounted base for cockpit frame components and attachments
• Compatibility: intended for use with simulator seat mounts, pedal plates and various cockpit accessories
• Mechanical role: distributes load and improves frame rigidity and positioning
• Installation: designed for secure mounting on flat floor surfaces

How to use

Position the Sim Rig Floor on a flat, level floor surface and align it with the simulator cockpit frame. Attach seat mounts, pedal plates and other frame components to the floor mount according to the frame manufacturers instructions, ensuring fasteners are tightened to recommended torque values. Verify alignment of pedals and seat positions before finalising all connections. If the installation requires multiple components, assemble and temporarily tighten fasteners first to allow adjustments, then secure all points progressively for even distribution of load.

Recommendations

Use on a stable, level floor; avoid uneven or carpeted surfaces that might impair stability. Inspect mounting hardware periodically and retighten fasteners after initial use. When moving the rig, detach heavy components or use lifting assistance to prevent damage to the floor mount and the underlying floor surface.
