Description

Pre-Order — ships Late October.

Introducing the all new Double Pin version of our Alpine WebLock 6.2! This new weblock design shares many of the excellent features from our standard AWL6.2, but has the second quick pin at the rear of the device for direct attachment to many different types of gear.

Same large diverter with protection around the full circumference
Same upper and lower beckets
Same round front pin with parking spot for easy webbing installs. Same pin and parking spot on the rear pin as well.
Same high strength rating and strong build quality as the AWL6.2

This mates so well with our soft releases, for those that like to have a soft release installed on the tensioning end.

Made in China, assembled in Colorado.

Double Beckets

Two Beckets for max functionality

Through the ages of weblock usage, it has become quite clear that this device is used for much more than locking webbing. In fact, the weblock has turned into our progress capture for our tensioning systems, a rigging point for tagging and tensioning, and a master point for large systems. For this reason, having certain functionality built in to the weblock has become a must!

This starts at a functional becket: somewhere you can reliably rig off of. We've had beckets before on our AWL devices, however, the AWL6 has two (2) fully functional beckets: one for over the webbing and one for under!

The upper becket has a working load limit (WLL) of 8 kN, the perfect amount for using that pulley system to tension your longline in the park. This becket is located within the large rigging hole. The front of that hole is designed to have the load path sit above the webbing when it's installed in the device. This makes tensioning with an external tensioning system quite easy and streamlined.

The lower becket has a working load limit (WLL) of 10 kN, more than enough to rig with a compound Buckingham system, or connect various other components of your rigging. This becket is located within the diverter hole. The dimensions of the weblock are such that the load path when using this becket puts your rigging below the installed webbing. A perfect point to add a redirect for a multiplied Buckingham or install your low stretch sling for a compound system.

It's recommended to use a small sling when rigging off of the beckets. Directly connecting hardware to either location is not recommended due to the width of these connection points.

Pin Parking Spot

Fully round, free to spin, and very hard to drop

Both pins in this weblock are free to spin. This allows for easy pre-tensioning and a highly functional soft release mechanism. Simply push the button on the pin head to release the locking balls and the pin is free to come out or be pushed in.

In addition, both pins have a parking spot. While you are threading your webbing, the pin has a place to live on the weblock itself, so you can pre-install it and rig with both hands without the risk of it falling out at a critical moment. When the webbing is in place, pull the pin from its parking spot and push it home. This also works on the rear pin when connecting to your anchor, soft release, or sling. Park the pin, then push it in when ready.

Every pin is also tethered to the body with a short length of shock cord, so even out of its parking spot it stays with the weblock.
