The Omega Pacific Link Cam is a revolutionary concept from legendary Greg Lowe that operates on the simple design that a cam lobe can be trisected and linked so that as the cam is retracted, the lobe unfolds and permits an amazing range for a unit of its size. The Link Cam #1, covers the same range as up to four of other companies cams! That extended range means you can leave the ground with fewer pieces on your rack. No more doubling up on pieces you think you “might” need if you’re unsure where, exactly, you’ll need doubles of one particular piece. For backcountry climbers, it means packing in less gear. For relatively easy routes requiring only a few pieces here and there, Link Cams will be the favorite. And as a “crux piece” there’s nothing like it: pumped, arms failing, not-really-in-the-mood-to-fiddle-with-gear … grab your Link Cam. Place it. Relax. Mechanically-speaking, Link Cams are as innovative as the concept behind their design.
Features:
With a constant cam angle of 13.5°, Link Cams achieve their range without sacrificing holding power.
With the increased surface contact between the retracted cam links and the rock, Link Cams tend to “walk” less than other units.
The unique range eliminates the need for specialized, “offset cams” for flared-crack protection.
The range of Link Cams provides a greater margin of safety for “plug and go” placements.
Minimize the time spent fooling with gear—Link Cams are a perfect fit!
