    Product Discontinued 4/28/2024

    Sanwa is discontinuing the GTYR8 gate; inventory here will remain until sold out. You can now alternatively purchase the Sanwa GT-8X Square Restrictor Gate and Sanwa GTN-Y Octagonal Restrictor Gate Insert.


    Quarter-circle, half-circle and full 360 motions no longer take effort or feel unnatural after installing a Sanwa GT-Y Octagonal Restrictor Gate into your TE or Hori/Sanwa JLF setup.  A full 8 corners allows for smoother and more responsive motions for fireball, dragon-uppercut and spinning piledriver attacks.  Those investing their time in wrestling chars such as Zangief or Shoto chars such as Ryu, Ken, Sakura, Akuma, and Dan(!), deserve to swap out their existing 4-way gate for this one.

    The Sanwa GT-Y Octagonal Restrictor Gate is compatible with the Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Joystick and Sanwa JLF-TP-8Y-SK Joystick (No Plate Installed).

    1. All a matter of preference

      Some people will tell you that a Square gate is the way to go.
      Others will tell you that the only option is a circle.
      This is the middle ground between them.

      There is no wrong answer when it comes to the type of restrictor gate you have in your stick. Japanese arcade machines and sticks use a square by default, American arcade Machines use a circle or octagon. If you are having problems with your inputs on the various corners you might want to consider this.

      The Sanwa Octagonal Restrictor gate is the best of the octagonal breed, fits perfectly easy with any JLF, takes mere seconds to install. It is a sturdy gate that will get you through tons of fight sessions. If you're in the market for an octagonal restrictor gate, this is the one to get.

    2. Trying something different.

      Corners are waaaaaay more defined. Kinda of what I was looking for. Perfect fitment and easy install. on Apr 9th 2016

    3. Awesome! Must buy!

      Great product! I transitioned from a square gate to this and almost instantly noticed an improvement in my game. It gave me a better sense of where my joystick was positioned compared to the square gate. 10/10 would buy again. on Apr 4th 2016

    4. Great Gate.

      This restrictor gate is the best in my opinion. Sturdy construction, perfect fit. A1. on Mar 22nd 2016

    5. Great for what it's intended to do

      I got this to give it a try vs the square gate. Ultimately ended back on the square but that doesn't change that this gate is a great product. on Mar 18th 2016

    6. I Couldn't Ask For More!

      This gate works perfectly with my stick and as of rn my go-to with octagonal gates. If you want to make the switch then look no for because this is best octagonal gate you will find on the market! on Mar 16th 2016

    7. Great product works so well with my fight stick.

      Great product works so well with my fight stick. on Mar 9th 2016

    8. Perfect octagonal gate

      If you're thinking square or octagonal it's up to preference but I love this octagonal and definitely won't be switching back to square. on Feb 20th 2016

    9. Great product, the reviews are right

      Provides what it advertises, and very skillfully at that. Listen to the reviews as they're true. Great product, and I would buy more products from them in the future. on Feb 10th 2016

    10. High quality part!

      Square gate was getting annoying for anything but fighting games, and as I'm more of a retro arcade type of player, I bought this hoping it would help. And it really does for platformers, beat them all, Shmups, you name it!
      The only thing some might not like is it significantly widen the throw, so get a Kowal 1mm oversize actuator to go with it, it's cheap and you might like it better with it.
