From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Omega Pacific Link Cam #1 (Spring 2008) Built with a hybrid blend of materials and advanced MIM process, Link Cams by Omega Pacific 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.Features: 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! Range (mm/inch): 21.1 - 53.3 / .83 - 2.10 Strength: 14 kN Weight (grams/ounces): 176 / 6.2 Length (mm/inch): 171 / 6.75 Width (mm/inch): 63 / 2.48"

From US Outdoor Store:
"Omega Link Cam #1 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 c"

From EMS:
"Truly innovative and incredibly versatile. Just one size will span at least three sizes of normal cams and minimize the time spent fooling with gear. As the cam is retracted, the lobe unfolds and permits an amazing range for a unit of its size. Extended range means you can leave the ground with fewer pieces on your rack. Performs phenomenally even in flared cracks. With a constant cam angle of 13.5, holding power is never sacrificed, even at the range limit. Increased surface contact between the retracted cam links and the rock helps to reduce "cam walk"."
