Alien X Red
The Alien X is the sixth generation of the micro cam that obtained its first patent in 1986, in Colorado (US). It retains its original character, with a version that has been improved in terms of performance and finishes.
Available in six sizes, the new Alien X features the following improvements:
- Cams with X-grip texture: Improves the grip of the cams during the first times it is used.
- Three more versatile sizes: The three large sizes (3/4 yellow, 7/8 grey, and 1 red) can work as passive anchors.
- More ergonomic and re-sized puller: The redesigned puller makes the Alien X easy and quick to manipulate, whether during placement or extraction. It is also easier to use while wearing gloves, with an additional 3 mm between the puller and the cams.
- Solid and compact construction: The metal riveting and joint create a more homogeneous, compact design.
FAITHFUL TO ITS ORIGINS
The Alien X retains its original character, being faithful to the first patent:
- Lightness and reduced volume: The weight of the harness and the space it takes up is reduced.
- Flexibility: Absorbs the movements of the rope, preventing the cams from shifting once in place.
- Cam geometry design.
- Colour-coded sizes: These colors have become a reference in climbing reviews over the last 30 years.
Size Specifications: Expansion range of 20,3 mm (0,80 in) to 33,4 mm (1,31 in).
All Alien X products are hand-made in Barcelona.
