NEXUS R5 Tube Mount Kit – 41.275mm (1.625″) Diameter: 41.275mm (1.625″)

Heavy-Duty Integration: Nexus R5 Tube Mount Kit (1.625″)

For professional race cars utilizing standard roll cage tubing, the Nexus R5 Tube Mount Kit (1.625″) is the gold standard for VCU installation. Engineered to clamp securely onto 41.275mm (1.625-inch) tubing—the most common size for main hoops and door bars in FIA and SCCA compliant cages—this kit provides a rock-solid foundation for the Nexus R5 VCU. By mounting the VCU directly to the cage, you free up valuable dash and floor space while placing the unit in an ideal location for wiring harness routing and access. This billet aluminum solution is designed for the fabricator who demands a clean, bolt-on solution that looks as good as it performs.

Engineering & Materials

The kit features a bespoke mounting plate and heavy-duty clamps machined from 6061 Aluminum. The assembly is black anodized to prevent corrosion and provide a sleek, race-ready aesthetic. The 1.625″ clamps are designed with sufficient surface area to grip the tube firmly without crushing it, ensuring the mount stays put even under the high G-forces of drag launches or road course cornering. The rigid mounting is also critical for the accurate operation of the R5’s internal 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), ensuring that your datalogs reflect the true motion of the chassis.
