OTTO DesignWorks, makers of the OTTOLOCK® Cinch Lock, announces the release of the new HEXBAND™ series, featuring added resistance to shearing tools such as snips and cable cutters. Getting through OTTOLOCK HEXBAND requires serious effort or powered devices, making it a stronger quick-stop lock for bicyclists and other users with higher security requirements.
HEXBAND is differentiated by using six stainless steel band layers (versus three in the original) while still being wrapped in an internal Dupont™ Kevlar® jacket. The form factor remains unchanged with a small weight addition of just 75 grams (30” version) making it easy to carry.
In development for more than a year, HEXBAND can be distinguished by its titanium-colored Cerakote® lock head and band. It’s available in 18”, 30”, and 60” lengths and priced at $65, $75, and $95 MSRP respectively. HEXBAND is ideal for quick stop bicycle lock-ups, back or top of vehicles, travel gear, tools, and more.
