Quick Release Bolt-On Red

The Woodward Machine Quick Release Bolt-On Red steering wheel quick disconnect is an SFI 42.1-certified steering column interface engineered for high-performance and off-road vehicles requiring rapid steering wheel removal. This aluminum quick-release coupler delivers a secure, repeatable connection interface that meets competition safety standards while enabling operators to swap steering wheels in seconds—a critical feature for multi-vehicle operations, racing, or vehicles where steering wheel access impacts emergency egress.

Constructed from aluminum with a bolt-on mounting design, this quick release system integrates directly with standard steering columns without permanent modification. The red accent finish aids rapid visual identification and serves as a tactile reference point during operation under stress or low-light conditions. Weighing 0.97 lbs with compact dimensions of 5.15 x 3.55 x 6.9 inches, the unit maintains minimal footprint while providing the robust locking mechanism necessary for consistent performance across repeated engagement cycles. The SFI 42.1 certification confirms this component meets the Society of Automotive Engineers' safety requirements for quick-release steering wheel assemblies in high-stress environments.

Operators deploying vehicles across multiple roles—patrol, transport, recovery, or pursuit—benefit from quick-disconnect steering systems that reduce transition time and eliminate fumbling with standard fasteners under pressure. The bolt-on configuration preserves original steering column integrity, allowing installation on vehicles where welding or permanent alteration is not feasible. Serious off-road enthusiasts, motorsport teams, and fleet operators managing specialized vehicles rely on certified quick-release systems to maintain both performance standards and safety compliance during high-demand operations.

SFI 42.1 certification signals that this unit has undergone third-party validation for shock absorption, retention force, and durability—validation that matters when steering wheel security is non-negotiable. Aluminum construction resists corrosion while maintaining the strength-to-weight ratio demanded in lightweight vehicle builds, and the standardized quick-release interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of aftermarket steering wheels and hubs designed for competition or professional-grade applications.

When steering wheel interchangeability, rapid deployment, and certified safety are priorities, the Woodward Machine Quick Release Bolt-On Red delivers a field-proven solution that integrates quickly into high-performance or multi-role vehicle platforms.
