The Kart Master KMSW10 10-Degree Steering Wedge directly alters your steering column angle, providing enhanced leverage, reducing driver fatigue, and delivering a more vertical push\/pull feel. By increasing the steering angle by exactly 10 degrees, this wedge optimizes weight jacking during turn-in, planting the inside wheel with aggressive precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaximizing Grip: How Steering Angles Complement Your Top Tire Choice\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTuning your chassis is a holistic process. You can mount the absolute top tire compound available, but without the correct steering leverage, you'll never extract its full mechanical grip. This black anodized aluminum wedge refines your caster and camber transition during wheel rotation. By elevating the wheel angle, younger drivers and seasoned veterans alike gain the mechanical advantage needed to muscle through high-G corners without scrubbing speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePrecision Control for the Best Engines on the Grid\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you're running the best engines in the paddock—like a high-revving 2-stroke or a torquey Briggs 206—you need steering inputs that are immediate and predictable. The Kart Master wedge secures seamlessly to both 3-hole and 6-hole hub patterns, allowing for rapid trackside adjustments. This modular flexibility means you spend less time wrenching and more time analyzing telemetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBraking and Turning: Synergy with Upgraded Brake Pistons\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCorner entry is where races are won. As you threshold brake and rely on high-performance brake pistons to decelerate, the 10-degree wedge ensures your hands are in the biomechanically optimal position to initiate the turn. This reduces shoulder strain and allows for smoother, more consistent steering inputs under heavy braking loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTargeted 10-Degree Adjustment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Refines caster transition and weight jacking for predictable, aggressive turn initiation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePremium 6061-T6 Aluminum:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delivers exceptional lightweight strength without adding unnecessary mass to your steering column.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlack Anodized Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides superior corrosion resistance against trackside elements and harsh racing environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal Hub Flexibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pre-drilled to accommodate both standard 3-hole and 6-hole steering wheel patterns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnhanced Driver Ergonomics:\u003c\/strong\u003e Creates a more vertical steering feel, significantly reducing arm and shoulder fatigue during long stints.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRapid Trackside Installation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bolt-on design allows mechanics to execute fast setup changes between practice sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSleek, Professional Aesthetics:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maintains a clean, uncluttered look on your steering hub assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center; color: #cc0000 !important; font-size: 1.4em;\"\u003eWe did not have a High Resolution of this item, this item picture may be different, but the description and title is accurate.
