Simpson Racing Sliding Tether Replacement FAQs
Q: What’s the difference between the standard tether and the sliding version?
A: The sliding tether allows more natural lateral head movement—giving you the range you need without losing restraint protection. It’s a game-changer in terms of comfort and visibility.
Q: Is this compatible with my helmet?
A: If your helmet has HANS post anchors, yes. This sliding tether works with post anchor systems found on most Simpson and aftermarket helmets.
Q: Does this tether meet FIA or SFI standards?
A: The tether itself is a replacement/add-on component designed for use with Simpson’s FIA- and SFI-certified head restraint systems. Always ensure your complete setup (Hybrid + helmet + tether) meets your sanctioning body’s requirements.
Q: How do I install it?
A: Easy! Remove the existing tether from your Hybrid device and replace it with this one using the same mounting points. If you’re not 100% sure, Simpson provides a detailed installation guide—or just have your tech team knock it out in the paddock.
Q: How often should I replace the tether?
A: Regular inspections are key. Replace your tether if it shows fraying, wear, or impact damage. As a general rule, many drivers replace them every 1–2 seasons depending on use.
