Is this a solid U-lock or a cable lock? Product description says it has a 6' coiled cable.

It's a solid u lock. Haven't had any issues with mine. It's pretty heavy and the straight bar is a little big, but overall it's a good lock.

It is a great strong ULock.(no cable whatsoever ).and lighter yet as strong as the others ...

Onguard sells both the U-Lock and the Cable lock. This specific product is the solid U-Lock.

The cord and center (so not counting the plugs which add to the length different amounts) is about 27.5".Unlike another person who answered, I don't have any problem with only extending the cable partway--you just need to pull from both sides instead of only one, then it stays locked.

No, there is no security slot on the laptop so you wouldn't be able to use a traditional cable lock.

The way that is shown is about 3 inches of coiled wire on each side of the unit so roughly 14 inches overall. It doesn't say that it has to be installed that way so maybe you only install the wire and leave the unit "free" Then you would need about 6 inches.

Yeah, if you have decent bolt cutters, you can get through any wire lock. That's why wire locks shouldn't be your primary defense against theft. As wire locks go, this is a pretty solid one, but at the end of the day it's not meant for heavy duty.

The only difference that I can see is that the K64670US has a coiled cable. The actual lock itself should be the same.

2.25 cm per inch, so about 10"- great lock: well constructed, easy to use, able to start it in the down tube & bring it through the fork of my mtb in the back of my truck. No way for thieves to get to the frame, fork, or front wheel.

Yes, but you would also need to purchase a cable and lock. Most cables are 6 feet long and either have a key lock or a combination lock.

There are locks but the cables are really flimsy. I had a mountain bike stolen off the rack last year in broad daylight in a busy tourist area. They cut clean through the cable. Security is definitely an issue with this rack.

Hello, the cable, when fully open, is 3.75" long. When locked, the space between the loop and the lock is just over 1.5". Honestly, though, this lock is not my favorite. It does appear very sturdy but I have not actually used it yet. My 'beef' is with the locking mechanism itself. It's kind of difficult to get the hang of to open; even though I've entered my own combination I swear it's still locked until, magically, it opens after fiddling with it and just about getting frustrated. Hope that helps in some way. Good luck.

Pretty hefty. probably between 5/16" & 3/8" BUT, it's in service at a rental house and I'm not currently local to check. Sorry. It should be in Master Lock website specs though. Good luck.

Locks and their cables are there to keep honest people honest. Anyone who really wants to take your stuff will figure it out somehow. This type of lock is best used when looped through something sturdy as mentioned in other answers. Be smart with where you place it, and it will provide some small sense of security, or at the very least be very visible to you or others when someone waltzes out with an entire table/chair/laptop combination.

It does not lock but it is very steady and does not come off easily. Very well made cable.

I am not sure. Mine came with the cable lock. It pulls out of the top of the rack.

I purchased a cable lock at the safe store where I purchased the dorm safe. It has the ability to be secured to a pipe, furniture, etc. Place the safe out of sight i.e. Under the bed and attach it to the bed frame. When things go missing in a dorm room it is because the stolen item was left unattended in full view. We have had this safe for a year and it has been a smart investment for our college student.As a parent we need to set our students up for a successful year and teach them to secure their valuables.

Hi Diane,The cable on this lock is 1/8" wide/thick.Very good lock as it has lasted 5 trips so far without breaking like previous units.
