Slim Specs

360-Degree Motion While Locked

The swivel hinge rotates 360 degrees and pivots 90 degrees. This lets you position your laptop or monitor without unlocking. In practice, it maintains security while you adjust your workspace.

Resettable 4-Digit Combination

You can set and change your own 4-digit code. This helps prevent unauthorised access if you suspect the code is known. Because it is a combination lock, no keys are required.

K-Slot Compatibility

The lock fits devices with the industry-standard Kensington lock slot (K-Slot). This includes many laptops, desktops, docks, and monitors. However, it will not fit USB-C or Nano lock slots.

Vinyl-Coated Steel Cable

The flexible steel cable is vinyl coated to help prevent surface scratches. It loops around stationary posts or fixtures in offices and public spaces. The exact cable diameter is not specified; confirm if you need a specific gauge.

Portable and Lightweight

At 128 g, the lock is easy to carry in a bag. The compact form factor suits hot-desking and travel. Package dimensions are 130 mm width by 220 mm depth.
