Race Car Padding and Netting
Race car padding and netting help drivers build, replace, or upgrade key cockpit safety components. Roll bar padding covers exposed cage bars. A race car window net helps keep the driver’s arms inside the car and prevents debris from getting in. Cage nets add cockpit containment, while steering wheel pads add cushioning near the steering area. Behrent’s carries race car padding, nets, steering wheel pads, and installation hardware from brands including Allstar Performance, Moroso, Kirkey, and Simpson. Replace worn cockpit safety components, update an existing setup, or finish a new race car build with the right padding, netting, and mounting hardware from Behrent’s.

How to Choose Race Car Padding and Netting
Match the product to the area of the cockpit you need to protect or contain. Use roll bar padding on exposed cage bars, a window net at the driver opening, cage netting for added containment, steering wheel pads near the steering area, and the correct hardware for installation or replacement.
| Product Type | Best For | What to Check |
|---|---|---|
| Roll bar padding | Covering exposed roll cage bars | Check bar fit or diameter, padding dimensions, length, and cockpit clearance. |
| Race car window net | Helping keep the driver’s arms inside the car and helping block debris | Compare net size, shape, mounting style, and required hardware. |
| Race car netting or cage nets | Adding containment within the cockpit | Confirm dimensions, mounting points, cockpit layout, and driver clearance. |
| Steering wheel pads | Adding padding near the steering area | Check steering setup, pad dimensions, fit, and available clearance. |
| Mounting hardware | Installing or replacing window and cage nets | Match the hardware to the net, mounting style, and existing tabs or attachment points. |
Compare product dimensions with the current cockpit setup and check net size, mounting style, bar fit, hardware requirements, and color where relevant. Drivers should also confirm current track, class, and rulebook requirements before installing or reusing older safety components.
Frequently Asked Questions About Race Car Padding and Netting
What is the purpose of a race car window net?
A race car window net helps keep the driver’s arms inside the car during a collision and can also help prevent debris from entering the cockpit. The net should fit the window opening and use the correct mounting setup for the car.
What is roll bar padding made of?
The padding is typically made from high-density foam designed to cover exposed roll cage bars. It adds cushioning between the driver and the cage to help reduce the risk of injury if contact occurs.
When should you replace race car padding or netting?
Replace netting or padding when it becomes worn, torn, compressed, faded, loose, damaged, or no longer fits securely. Also check current track, class, or rulebook requirements before reusing older safety components.
