THE GRIND IS OVER.
The weapon of choice for the professional bicycle (and motorcycle) thief is the angle grinder – a motorized hand tool that can cut through any lock, no matter how big, how heavy, or how expensive. To date, this fundamental problem has been largely ignored by the security industry as it has seemed too difficult to solve.
That has changed with the release of the Hiplok D1000, a lightweight, mobile lock that can withstand severe, sustained angle grinder attack.
The reason for the D1000’s incredible resistance against motorized attack is a material called Ferosafe, a composite graphene material that effectively resists high power angle grinders due to it’s unique chemical and physical properties.
The application of Ferosafe within the D1000’s patent pending design results in a lightweight, mobile bicycle lock that can be used in the same way as any other classic ‘U Lock’ products, but with anti-cut properties that are unrivalled.
FEROSAFE. A GRAPHENE REINFORCED COMPOSITE.
Ferosafe is a graphene reinforced ceramic composite - a high performing, patented, material that has been specifically designed to disintegrate angle grinder cutting wheels and carbide tipped drills with its unique combination of material properties.
Created in an advanced high temperature fusion process, the manufacture of Ferosafe is very precisely controlled while also being very energy efficient, achieving a low carbon footprint.
EXPERTISE IN SECURITY. AND INNOVATION.
Here at Hiplok we've a track record of delivering innovative, award winning, high quality security products that are built on an understanding of rider’s needs. Combining our skills and experience with those of the advanced material specialists that created Ferosafe has been an incredibly rewarding experience.
Since the Original Hiplok was launched in 2011, hundreds of thousands of Hiplok products have been purchased, used and trusted by our customers to secure their precious bikes and accessories. Ten years on, we view the D1000 as a game changer in the world of security products.
WHY NO “TECH?”
You may ask, why is there no ‘tech’ in the D1000? Connectivity? Apps? Keyless Entry? The simple fact is that whilst we all love the benefits of the ‘i-world’ where it makes sense; connectivity and electronics cannot offer a true line of defence to a determined thief that can steal a bike within a few seconds.
The technology in the D1000 is focused in material science, engineering and construction which will actually prevent a theft from occurring in the first place. We’ve combined material technology with tried and tested locking hardware to create an incredibly reliable and world beating piece of security equipment.
