What is an extruded aluminium or ‘8020’ racing cockpit?

8020 is a short, broad and interchangeable term used for extruded aluminium profile. SO, when someone says ‘8020’, they’re referring to extruded aluminium. Extruded aluminium is basically lengths of aluminium profile that has portions removed. These are known as extrusions.

This allows you to connect multiple separate lengths of extruded aluminium. That means you can use this material to build compact structures (like sim rigs) using nuts that slide into the extrusions.

‘8020’ refers to a common profile size used in crafting the chassis of aluminium cockpits. That is, the profile is 80mm x 20mm (or 8020).
