Features:

In 1977, the world was introduced to the first active-protection
devices and ever since, protecting hard climbs hasn�t been the
same. Although many companies have entered into the market
with their own versions of the original design, there hasn�t really
been a big jump in camming technology since that first offering
almost thirty years ago.
Take a look at what a true leap forward finally looks like �
Introducing the Omega Pacific Link Cam.
It�s a revolutionary concept from the legendary Greg Lowe and
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.
Utilizing a reliable, single-axle design, our cam lobes exceed the
closest competition�s range substantially. With a camming ratio of
over 2.5:1, there�s nothing close to the Link Cam on the market
today. The Link Cam #1, for instance, covers the same range as
up to four of our competitors 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 odds-on favorite. And as a �crux piece�
there�s nothing like it: pumped, arms failing, not-really-in-themood-
to-fiddle-with-gear � grab your Link Cam. Place it. Relax.
Mechanically-speaking,
Link Cams are as innovative as the concept behind their design. Built
with a hybrid blend of materials and advanced MIM process, Link Cams
are the most sophisticated and modern camming devices in the world.
The
two, inner links on each lobe unit are built with a very new (and very
expensive) process known as Metal-Injection- Molding which permits us
to create detailed, precision pieces�like casting�with the strength of
machined parts and are made from 17-4 aircraft stainless steel. The
outer link is machined from 7000-series aluminum alloy.
Other benefits abound:

With a constant cam angle of 13.5�, we achieve our 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!
For Big Wall speed ascents, attach Link Cams to aiders and see how much time you trim!
