You have Paramount build a cord to your specs.

I'm certain Rollei sells synch cords with the proper locking

average synch cord :)
Have a look at Paramount's web site:

I would call them to confirm the SL66 socket is the same fit as the
TLRs. (I don't own a locking cord but I'd like to know if you find
out!)

Okay -- it isn't really a problem. It's a little annoyance -- an
inconvenience -- that I'd like to address.
The sync cord from my old Metz 45 flash unit tends to fall out of
my SL66 "X" connector far too easily. This has been happening for
years and I am weary of it. I'm guessing that the spring-loaded
latch on the camera's flash connector jack keys into a slot on the
sync cord's plug. However, this sync cord -- a new Metz
replacement -- has no slot or other means of locking into the
camera's jack. Surely someone else has run into this problem.
Did you find a cure? (I suppose I could cut a tiny slot in the
cord plug but it would take a mighty fine blade to do it).
