Strong, Dependable and Durable.
-
Internal Cam Springs allow a much more compact camming unit. With this system, Aliens fit into smaller placements and have more cam surface area per width than other units.
-
Control Sheath operation allows true flexibility of the main cable stem AND solid cam control. Cam walk and placement change are minimized. Deeper placements are possible, but don't place the stem over sharp edges or so that permanent bending or damage will occur when the unit is weighted.
-
Secure grip and control. Easy clipping and racking are provided by the cable loop. Aliens are available with or without a sewn Spectra runner.
-
Axles are machined from hardened stainless steel which is corrosion proof and resists flex. Also. the Internal Spring system allows the axle length to be minimized, which results in a short and virtually unbendable axle.
-
Cams are machined from 6061-T6 Aluminum extrusions, a grippy alloy with TEETH.
-
Moderate cam angle of 16 degrees for greater holding power.
-
Sturdy aluminum handle and top puller are crimped to woven stainless tubular sheath material. A tubular nylon "Sock" provides abrasion resistance. The sheath can be taped, but don't tape tightly or it will cause drag in the operation.
-
Quality connections. The main cable is individually silver brazed 10mm deep to the stainless cable eye fitting. Nicopress copper cable fittings are used for the swaged connections.
-
Quality control. All machined parts are manufactured in our shop with modern computer numeric controlled equipment. This allows us to control the manufacturing processes from start to finish, eliminating possible errors from outside contractors.
