Unlike a U lock or D lock that is constructed from stiff, solid steel components that can be easily broken with a crowbar, LITELOK CORE uses multiple layers of composite materials with a flexible construction, allowing energy to be absorbed during attack.
Unlike a chain that is constructed from stiff steel links and easily cracked and broken with bolt croppers, LITELOK CORE has a layered, flexible construction which absorbs energy but also allows movement away from the cutting attack plane.
Unlike a cable that is constructed from steel wires alone and easily broken with cable cutters, LITELOK CORE has a two component polymer outer layer dissipating the initial attack, a fine grain hardened steel exoskeleton which absorbs energy and protects the flexible inner core which provides extremely high tensile strength.
