The WP850 pedestal.

The WP850 "A-frame" pedestal solution is Jefa's answer to the demand for a strong, light and affordable pedestal for the growing number of cruiser/racers which require a modern steering solution. The pedestal is completely made of high strength aluminium 6082. This build method results in a relatively low weight (7.5 Kgs) and a very strong and stiff construction. Due to a very flexible build method, the pedestal height is variable. Please click on the pictures for a larger view.

General measurements

The WP850 pedestal is available in heights from 400 mm to 800 mm (distance centre of steering shaft to deck). The short pedestals are normally used with big steering wheels and the high pedestals with small steering wheels, all depending on the cockpit arrangement.
