Legendary Reliability with Push Pin Convenience The Smith & Wesson Model 100-1P takes the world's most widely used handcuff, the classic Model 100, and enhances it with a user-friendly Push Pin Double Lock Mechanism. While standard cuffs require you to insert a key into a small slot to engage the double lock, the "1P" model features a distinct pin on the edge of the cuff body. This allows officers to double-lock the restraints simply by depressing the pin with the tip of the key, ensuring the cuffs are safely "frozen" to prevent over-tightening or tampering during transport.
Built in the USA to rigorous standards, these cuffs are crafted from Carbon Steel with a professional Nickel Plated Finish. They feature heat-treated internal lockworks and smooth ratchets for swift application. Whether you are on patrol or in corrections, the Model 100-1P offers the trusted durability of Smith & Wesson with the added speed and security of the push-pin system.

Standards and Procurement Rothco lists this model as passing NIJ specifications. The current National Institute of Justice standard for restraints is NIJ Standard 1001.00, Criminal Justice Restraints. NIJ does not certify restraints and asks that products not be described as NIJ certified. Certification is handled by NIJ-recognized certification bodies, currently the Safety Equipment Institute. Agencies that require certified restraints should specify: restraints tested in accordance with NIJ Standard 1001.00 and certified by a certification body recognized by the National Institute of Justice. Contact us before ordering if your agency requires certification documentation for this model.
Why It Matters In a struggle, fine motor skills degrade. The Push Pin system simplifies the critical step of double-locking your cuffs. Instead of hunting for a tiny slot, you simply press the pin. It's a small detail that makes a big difference in officer safety and liability protection.
