More responses to recommendations for air t
Hello List,
More responses to recommendations for air tight pin locks: Again most suggested Coyote Air Lock, but 2 more for Ohio Willowwood.

100% Coyote Air-Lock. Its all I use and is a great product. One shot air tight
lamination. Very nice lock design.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oww blue lock, pin with suction, can be easily replaced or retrofit to pure
suction or lanyard
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The only company I'm aware that does a pin lock and vacuum system is Coyote.

Look at Coyote Design Air Lock. Should be what you are looking for.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I too would recommend the Coyote with one caveat: The pin is made of delrin nylon (not metal) and MUST be aligned perfectly in order to engage the locking mechanism. This is not only paramount during fabrication, but also when the client donns the liner.
-------------------------------------------------------
Troy, I would be interested in any responses you received.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Coyote Designs Suction Lock. It is easy to use and the 4 hole is separate so you can place the pin at the center distally but move the 4 hole wherever you need. We use these on most of our patients. We have added a sleeve as you want with great success.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ohio Willow G-lock...comes with straightforward fabrication instructions.You will require separate tooling kit for either thermoplastic or laminating fabrication.It is a drop in suction-shuttle lock that is easily removable for maintenance and adjustment.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to all the respondents!
