ArcPit Theft Prevention Device

How do I stop someone from stealing my ArcPit off my spare tyre?

The good news is the solution is simple, lightweight, and affordable. At ArcMate, we recommend using a cable lock — either a PIN code or key lock — to secure your ArcPit whenever you’re travelling or leaving your campsite unattended.

Why a cable lock works best?

The ArcPit was designed to travel mounted over your spare tyre. That unique setup makes it easy to lock in place by running a cable lock through the rim of your tyre and around the ArcPit base.

This method is:

  • Quick → Takes just seconds to set up.
  • Strong → Steel cable locks are tough enough to deter theft.
  • Portable → Lightweight and easy to store when not in use.
  • Flexible → Works with either a key or PIN-style lock depending on your preference.

Peace of mind while you are away

Whether you’re stopping in town to get fuel or to checkout the local bakery, or just exploring a destination away from your vehicle, a cable lock means your ArcPit will be safe & secure right where you left it.

The ArcPit is built tough from 3mm 430 stainless steel to last a lifetime of campfires — pairing it with a simple lock ensures it’s always ready for your next fire-up.
