These cams are all-time favorites for many climbers who've tried them for tight and shallow or funky placements, such as pin scars, pockets, and mini-huecos. They really came to fame as the ultimate horizontal crack protection, on account of their flexible stems.
Gone for awhile, Fixe Hardware was proud to reintroduce them. CCH is now a Fixe brand, and all manufacturing is done in Spain. Each unit is tested and CE/UIAA certified. Aliens are being sold through Fixe and select shops only. (We at the WildyX are all grins here.)
Cams are color-coded and exceptionally easy to rack and identify and come equipped with a six-inch Ultratape sling.
Specs

- Flexible stems are well-suited for horizontal cracks
- Color-coded Aliens rack and unrack like a dream
- Place Aliens at 50% closure for maximum holding strength
