Look SPX 12 Alpine AFD model#/name

[turnfarmer]

So the grip walk AFD that came with these lines up right on the edge of my boots AFD and the rubber in front of it. Does anyone know which is the right Alpine AFD to order for SPX 12?

I think Gripwalk is a total shit show. I've played around with a lot of different boot binding combinations at the shop where I work and there are a lot of misalignments like this.

Personally, I would just use the GripWalk AFD, the amount of added friction from that tiny amount of rubber contact is minimal. Not sure which AFD to order (as you probably know, all the holes for Pivot, SPX and NX toes are the same) it's just the baseplate . . . sounds like a good question for spyderjon. My Look tech manual has a bunch of WTR and mechanical (as opposed to Teflon) AFD's listed as well . . .

"Pivot, SPX and NX toes are the same) it's just the baseplate " helpful, kind of knew it but goo to have reinforced.
Are Pivot 15/18 toe piece holes the same as Pivot 12/14?

The toe binding design on the P12/P14/FKS12/FKS14/SPX/Axial/NX/Axium is the called the Full Action toe and whilst the mounting pattern matches that of the full metal P15/P18/FKS15/FKS18 the base plates are different and so require a different AFD. The model number for the GW/alpine AFD that is now standard on the Full Action toes is FCHF004. Look are currently out of stock but their next batch will become available mid June 2021.

The previous Full Action dual alpine/WTR AFD that had the rotating indicator to set the AFD height was the FCEF003. This is now discontinued and Look are out of stock. They made few for sale as parts so they're now very hard to find. My last pair went to a maggot a few weeks ago.

And before that the Full Action alpine only AFD (the fifth one down in the above pic) was the FC9F007. This is now discontinued and Look are out of stock but I'm pretty sure that I still have some in a box somewhere.

So this thread has inspired me to do a stock check on my Look AFD spares.



Of the older AFD's it turns out that I've got 14 pairs of the Full Action alpine only FC9F007 and 8 pairs plus a single of the alpine only FC9F006 for P15/P18. Both of these are now discontinued and are available whilst stock lasts for the cost of the shipping only.

I would take 3 pairs of the Full Action Alpine only FC9F007. Let me know how to pay you. Many thanks in advance.
