Slide-Loc Quick Release Cam Lever - Paten Pending
Slide-Loc LLC - Quick Release Lever
Patent Pending - All Rights Reserved
Slide-Loc's Quick Release (Lever).
Slide-Loc LLC was formally founded in 2020 with an original intent to bring awareness to the owners local club in Minnesota “TCMAS” where he served as President. Following that time has used his +20yrs of hobby experience to release a steady stream of new patent pending products designed to push the envelope of usability and quality.
Our latest evolution is to take on the meek and humble thumb screw... often a thorn for hobbyists... and replace it with what can only be described as a massive leap forward.
The Patent Pending lever replaces the need for many nylon thumbscrews. Additionally alleviating the need for undersized bulkheads, complex machined lids, & better preserves the integrity of the gasket.
Slide-Loc Patent Pending Quick Release:
1) Simple with fast release and re-attachment.
2) Quality 316 stainless steel & anodized aluminum construction.
3) Consistent attachment pressure.
4) Eliminates shear force on gaskets.
5) Eliminates thread binding from swelling of nylon screws.
6) Simple pressure adjustment.
7) Adjustment tool built in.
8) Comfortable on the hands.
9) Utilizes tensioning force (stretching) vs. the less mechanically sound torsion force (rotating).
10) More forgiving on lining up parts.
11) Able to retrofit existing equipment.
The competition...
Nylon thumbscrews serve their purpose. They don't rust underwater and they are cheap.
They are challenged by:
1) Slow & often inconvenient to use in tight spaces.
2) Swells from moisture can create difficulty in turning.
3) Breakage from torque (head separating).
4) Phillips & flathead drive heads stripping screw.
5) Difficulty attaining sufficient clamping force for effective gasket compression.
6) Inconsistent clamping pressure.
7) Painful on fingertips.
8) Lining up the holes right... we've all been there.

Slide-Loc Probe Holder Demo
As seen on Reef2Rainforest!🐠
Strong enough 💪 for large systems, compact enough for AIO back chambers.
Best practice is to use the dosing lines for an auto water change or RO ATO. Dosing elements next to probes are best with our dedicated dosing holder.
Small temp probes such as the Hydros or Inkbird fit in the Dosing Holder.
