Extended Sim Rig Full size Keyboard Mount (8040 Aluminum Extrusion)

Summary

Give your full-size keyboard the perfect place in your sim racing setup with this extended keyboard mount for 8040 aluminum extrusion profiles. Unlike many compact keyboard trays, this design provides enough space for full-size keyboards while keeping them easily accessible, even when the steering wheel is installed.

The extended layout allows comfortable typing, navigation, and game setup adjustments without having to move the keyboard or leave the cockpit. At the same time, the design is optimized for efficient 3D printing, reducing print time and material consumption while maintaining excellent stability.

The mounting holes are specifically sized for M6 hex head bolts, making installation on common aluminum profile systems quick and straightforward.
