Security has released the TYLINK range of high security locks
that are ideal for securing motorcycles. TYLINK is a new concept
in high security link-locking methods and is designed to replace
conventional padlock and chain-link arrangements. It is also
designed to provide far greater physical security than the
traditional systems and represents a quantum leap forward in
both quality and strength.
Conventional hardened alloy steel chain up to Ø13mm (ؽ”) can
still be cut with 1050mm (42”) bolt cutters. The TYLINK has
proved resistant to these.
The TYLINK uses a revolutionary Ø25mm (Ø1”) in-line link design
that is made from hardened manganese steel and provides an
armoured casing to cover and protect a flexible, aircraft grade
steel cable. It is hinged together to provide maximum strength
as well as a degree of flexibility and articulation and chrome
plated for good corrosion resistance.
The TYLINK is designed to provide a high degree of resistance to
prying, hacksawing and bolt cutters and is available in at least
six lengths ranging from 45cm (1.5ft) to 180cm (6ft).
The TYLINK 3000 is a portable model that allows the secure
locking of motorcycles to fixed objects such as posts or street
furniture or to a dedicated anchor such as the TYLINK 360 ground
mounted anchor. The TYLINK 3000 lock body is cast in 316 grade
stainless steel and offers good corrosion resistance. It also
incorporates hardened steel pins to give a high resistance to
levering and hacksawing.
The TYLINK 360 security anchor is available as an auxiliary
item. It is cast in 316 grade stainless steel and features a
hardened steel insert that helps to resist cutting with a
hacksaw. It is designed to provide a secure point so the TYLINK
can be run through it to provide further security. It is mounted
to a floor or wall with two Ø12mm masonry bolts that are not
accessible when the TYLINK is passed through it.
All TYLINK products can be purchased direct from the TYSON
website or from selected dealers. Prices start at $169.
