Overview of the ASP Transport Plus Belt | 56186
Every prisoner transport carries risk. The wrong restraint setup can slow your team down, create escape opportunities during transitions, or put officers in danger during handoffs. ASP built the Transport Plus Belt (model 56186) to close those gaps with a complete, integrated wrist-and-ankle restraint system that keeps subjects fully secured from cuffing through booking.
Winner of the NAUMD Public Safety Product Innovation Award, the Transport Plus Belt pairs Rigid Plus Cuff wrist restraints with a cut-resistant, seatbelt-grade nylon transport belt that connects through a purpose-built channel in each cuff. Wrap the belt around the subject's waist and a high-security proprietary lock snaps closed instantly with no key required to engage it. A second auto-engaging lock then secures the belt to a pair of Ankle Plus Cuffs for full leg restraint.
Designed for law enforcement transport officers, court security professionals, and federal transport teams, the complete kit packs every component into a custom EVA-molded hard-shell carrying case ready for immediate deployment.
Key Features
-
NAUMD Public Safety Product Innovation Award Winner: Recognized by the National Association of Uniform Manufacturers and Distributors for advancing officer safety and transport efficiency.
-
Belt-Through-Cuff Design: The cut-resistant, seatbelt-grade nylon transport belt tongue slides through a purpose-built channel in the Rigid Plus Cuff wrist restraints, creating a secure waist connection without additional hardware.
-
Apply and Remove Without Removing Wrist Cuffs: The entire belt system can be applied, adjusted, or removed while the subject remains fully cuffed at the wrists throughout, reducing officer exposure and time on task.
-
Auto-Engaging Proprietary Locks: Two high-security locks snap closed instantly without a key. The key engages a cylinder lock with 2,187 possible unique keyway configurations and is only needed to remove the system.
-
Complete Ankle Restraint: ASP Ankle Plus Cuffs connect to the belt via the second auto-engaging lock, simultaneously controlling wrist, waist, and leg movement.
-
1 Pawl (Yellow) Lock Set: Single-pawl cuffs operate with standard handcuff keys, keeping this system compatible across departments and agencies.
-
Rigid Plus Cuff Wrist Restraints: Purpose-built for the Transport Plus system with a reinforced bridge and a channel designed specifically to accept the transport belt tongue.
-
Custom EVA-Molded Carrying Case: Hard-shell black case with organized foam-lined interior and blue-accent zipper keeps every component secure and instantly deployable.
-
Lifetime Warranty: ASP warrants this product against defects in workmanship and materials for the life of the product.

Compatibility
The Transport Plus Belt (56186) is engineered as a complete, self-contained system. The belt tongue is designed to work exclusively with the Rigid Plus Cuff wrist restraints included in the kit. The belt-through-cuff channel is a purpose-built feature not compatible with standard chain or hinge handcuffs.
The extended handcuff key included is compatible with standard police handcuff keyways in addition to the proprietary cylinder locks. The two included cylinder keys are required to remove the auto-engaging locks.
The belt version of the Transport Plus is particularly well suited to:
- Prisoner transport in vehicles or on aircraft, including aviation security and federal transport operations
- Courtroom appearances, where the absence of chain noise keeps proceedings calm
- Booking and in-facility transfer where quiet, efficient processing matters
If your primary application is corrections facility transport and a waist chain is preferred over a nylon belt, ASP also offers the Transport Plus Chain version separately.
Intended Users
The ASP Transport Plus Belt (56186) is purpose-built for professionals who transport, book, or escort restrained subjects as a regular part of their duties.
Law enforcement transport officers and deputies will find the system's belt-and-ankle integration significantly reduces escort risk during vehicle loading and in-facility movement. Court security officers and bailiffs benefit from the belt version's quiet nylon construction, which keeps courtroom proceedings professional and free of unnecessary noise.
Federal and aviation security personnel, including U.S. Marshals and federal air marshals, favor the belt variant for its lower profile and the absence of chain noise in sensitive environments. Booking and detention officers appreciate how quickly the system applies and removes without unshackling the subject's wrists, which reduces exposure during processing.
Agency procurement officers equipping dedicated transport units will find the all-in-one kit format simplifies standardization across teams.
