Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered for durability and user convenience, this laptop lock incorporates a patented T-bar/combination mechanism that withstands pull forces up to 217lb (98kg). The carbon steel cable construction provides cut resistance while maintaining flexibility for routing around desk legs or through grommet holes. The lock body features a selector dial for adjusting the tip to match different security slot types, eliminating the need for multiple lock models.
The ball joint enables 360° rotation and the elbow joint's 90° pivot minimizes cable coiling and reduces strain on the security slot. This mechanical design extends the life of both the lock and protected equipment by preventing excessive torque on connection points.

FAQ
What types of security slots does this laptop lock work with?
This universal laptop lock works with three common security slot standards: Noble Wedge, K-Slot (also called T-Bar), and Nano slots. The adjustable lock tip can be configured using the selector dial to match the specific slot type on your device, making it compatible with laptops from HP, Dell, Microsoft, and other major manufacturers that use these industry-standard security interfaces.
How long is the security cable and what is it made from?
The security cable measures 6.6 feet (2 meters) in length, providing ample reach for routing around desk legs or through furniture grommets. It's constructed from cut-resistant carbon steel with a diameter of 0.17 inches (4.4 mm), offering substantial physical protection while maintaining flexibility for various installation scenarios.
Does this lock require keys or is it completely keyless?
This lock offers both keyless and keyed access options. It features a 4-digit combination lock with a push-to-lock button for convenient keyless operation in daily use.
