A new design highlights the strong character. In the 2021/22 season, the technically enhanced Tecton power package will be available with a new compelling design. The well-defined combination of power and functionality demonstrates the sophisticated technology it contains, down to the last detail.In the back, where the forces are highest, the Tecton remains as stable and precise as an alpine binding. The hold-down system with a non-turning alpine heel jaw and the rail transmits the power directly from the boot to the ski without any loss. The Tecton equals both the performance and the safety of alpine bindings. Any unwanted release is prevented by the long dynamic path. The binding reliably releases at the DIN setting. The easy step-in and the intuitive control provide security, especially in challenging terrain. The right mix of light high-tech synthetics and high-quality metal alloys provides superior stability at a low weight (only 550 g / unit).Swiss Made - From Concept To Product: Ninety-nine percent of the components are made in Switzerland and assembled into high-quality products in Reichenbach.Features:Now With Carbon For Even More Stability:- Carbon fiber-reinforced high tech plastics are used for the front and heel housing. In other words: the Tecton is now even more stable and longer lasting.The Right Mix Of Materials For Top Performance:- Climbing up to the peak with ease and getting downhill safely. Our claim is to achieve this at top performance and with the lowest possible weight.The optimal mix of materials makes the difference. Whether light glass fiber- or carbon fiber reinforced high tech plastics are used, as in the automotive and aviation industries, or high-quality metal alloys is ultimately determined by the technical requirements for optimal product safety and durability and a powerful performance without compromise.Counteracting The High Forces: - Bindings are subject to extreme stress. To ensure a long-lasting and reliable high-precision function Fritschi’s designers are using metal components wherever high dynamic forces are acting on the system, e. g. hardened steel, forged aluminum or metal alloy components made by complex processes.
