Purpose and function in the vehicle

This steering wheel airbag has been specifically designed for the Mercedes Sprinter W906 model, ensuring correct mounting geometry and compatibility with the factory SRS system controller. This component is responsible for driver protection in the steering wheel area, working in conjunction with crash sensors and seat belts.

The airbag is mounted centrally in the steering wheel rim, forming an integral module with the buttons and cover. The black color facilitates aesthetic matching with most Sprinter interior configurations, both in commercial versions and more advanced specialized conversions.

Construction, color, and fitment

The airbag construction is based on a factory housing with a properly shaped tear seam, allowing for controlled deployment when the system is triggered. The applied Black coating is visually neutral and blends well with the standard steering wheels used in the Mercedes Sprinter W906.

By maintaining the original mounting form, the component allows for precise seating in the steering wheel hub without the need to modify the column structure or covers. This solution helps maintain factory safety parameters and reduces the risk of incorrect installation.
