Product Information
Full details
The OMP First 6 Point Harness in Black is designed for professional saloon car racing, offering enhanced safety and weight reduction. Its key benefit is the FIA 8853-2016 approval when used with an FHR/HANS device, ensuring compliance and protection. A caveat is that the 2" shoulder straps are exclusively for use with an FHR/HANS device, limiting its application without one. This harness features a re-engineered magnesium buckle for lightness and safety, 3" shoulder and lap belts, and a "Double pin" T bar crutch strap.

FAQs
What does FIA 8853-2016 approval mean?
This certification indicates that the harness meets the latest stringent safety standards set by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) for motorsport equipment.
Can I use this harness without an FHR/HANS device?
No, the 2/3" shoulder straps are specifically designed for use ONLY with an FHR/HANS device. Using it without one compromises safety and compliance.
How do I clean the harness?
Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely. Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners.
What is the advantage of the magnesium buckle?
The magnesium buckle significantly reduces weight compared to traditional steel buckles, contributing to overall vehicle weight reduction and improved performance.
Are the straps suitable for all car types?
The harness features long straps designed for saloon or hatchback cars. Ensure the mounting points on your specific vehicle are compatible and secure.
What size are the eye bolts included?
The harness includes 5/16" UNF eye bolts for attachment to the vehicle chassis.
Where can I get metric eye bolts if I need them?
Metric versions of the eye bolts are available to purchase separately from OMP or authorized OMP dealers.
Troubleshooting
Harness difficult to adjust
Ensure adjusters are clean and free from dirt or debris. Check that the strap is not twisted.
Buckle is stiff or hard to release
Inspect the buckle mechanism for any obstructions. Clean gently with a dry cloth. Ensure correct alignment when engaging and disengaging.
Straps not holding tension
Verify that the pull-up adjusters are correctly engaged. If issues persist, inspect the adjuster mechanism for wear.
Eye bolts not included/correct size
The harness includes 5/16" UNF eye bolts. Metric versions must be purchased separately if required for your vehicle's specific mounting points.
