VÖLKEL's Commitment to Motorsports – Dakar, Panamericana & More
VÖLKEL has long been established in motorsports. With the legendary
Mercedes-Benz G-Class of Jacky Ickx (1983) as well as two robust
Mercedes-Benz 6x6 Service Trucks, our team already proved at the
Dakar Classic Rally that precision and endurance are not only crucial for threading tools.
The next chapter will follow in October 2025 with our participation in the
Carrera Panamericana in Mexico, where an original Mercedes-Benz 280E is being prepared for the event.
At the same time, preparations are already underway for the Dakar Rally 2026, where VÖLKEL,
together with Rally Raid Service, aims to once again demonstrate its strength under the most extreme conditions.
Threading Technology in Motorsports – Relevance in Practice
Why does a manufacturer of threading tools fit into the off-road world?
The answer is simple: Every thread counts.
In practice, this means:
- Repairs in the paddock must be fast and precise.
- Re-cutting damaged threads saves time and prevents failures.
What is vital in motorsports also applies to industry and trade:
Precision, reliability, and immediate readiness for use.
All VÖLKEL threading tools are immediately available from stock—
for motorsports professionals, industrial users, and ambitious DIY mechanics.
Conclusion: Precision Meets Passion
With its entry into Rally Raid Service, VÖLKEL connects the world of threading technology with the
fascination of motorsports. Whether at the Carrera Panamericana, in the desert of the Dakar Rally,
or in daily use in workshops worldwide—VÖLKEL tools stand for the highest quality,
precision, and reliability.
The partnership is a strong signal:
Technology, precision, and passion go hand in hand—on the racetrack and in the production hall.
