Quick Overview

These NIJ-certified hinged handcuffs are designed for law enforcement and corrections to gain maximum control over non-compliant or high-risk subjects. The solid hinge severely restricts hand and wrist movement, providing a tactical advantage over standard chain-link restraints during escort and transport.

Field Application Steps

  1. Gain positive control of the subject's hands before attempting to apply restraints.
  2. Apply the cuffs to fit snugly on the wrist, then check for proper tightness (one fingertip space).
  3. Immediately engage the double lock mechanism on both cuffs using the key pin to prevent over-tightening and injury.
  4. Conduct a thorough search of the subject after restraints are secured.
  5. Maintain constant observation of the subject and periodically check for signs of distress or restricted circulation.
