Alpha® Lock
The contoured design allows for easy pin alignment within the locking mechanism. The Alpha Lock has a built-in one-way expulsion air valve which minimizes pistoning. Available with or without a titanium pyramid. The Alpha Lock is part of the Alpha Interlock™ Suspension System. This system allows you to interchange suspension methods without remaking a socket. The Alpha Lock may be used in laminated or thermoplastic sockets.
