Description

The Alien X is the sixth generation of the micro cam, originally patented in Colorado, USA, in 1986. While it stays true to its roots, this latest version has been enhanced for better performance and finishes. Available in six sizes, the Alien X introduces several key improvements:

  • X-grip texture cams: These provide better grip, especially during initial uses.
  • More versatile sizes: The three largest sizes (3/4 yellow, 7/8 grey, and 1 red) can also function as passive anchors.
  • Ergonomic puller: The redesigned, re-sized puller makes the Alien X easier and quicker to handle, whether placing or removing it—even while wearing gloves. Additionally, there’s now an extra 3 mm between the puller and the cams for improved usability.
  • Solid, compact construction: Enhanced metal riveting and jointing create a more unified, compact design.
    Staying True to Its Origins

Despite these advancements, the Alien X remains faithful to the spirit of its original patent:

  • Lightweight and compact: Reducing both the weight on your harness and the space it occupies.
  • Flexible design: The flexibility of the Alien X allows it to absorb rope movements, helping the cams stay secure once placed.
  • Iconic cam geometry and colour coding: These features have been a staple in climbing reviews for over 30 years.
  • All Alien X products are meticulously handmade in Barcelona.
