ASP Yellow Tri-Fold Restraints Disposable Cuffs - 10-Pack | 56196

Overview of the ASP Yellow Tri-Fold Restraints Disposable Cuffs | 56196

Compact restraints built for speed and control

ASP Yellow Tri-Fold Restraints Disposable Cuffs (MPN 56196) deliver fast, compact restraint when metal handcuffs are not practical or desirable. Each restraint folds in three places for ultra-compact storage on a belt or vest, then deploys into wide-open loops for quick application. The high-visibility yellow color helps you spot them instantly in gear and on scene.

Secure locking with smoother handling

The extra-wide straps feature smooth edges designed to support safer handling during application. When tightened, the strap runs through a fully enclosed ratchet block with an integrated shim guard to help prevent picking. After tightening, squeezing the secondary compression lock buttons adds another layer of security. Tightening is quick and positive using the included molded pull handle, with an optional extra-long flex pull cord available separately.

Built for real-world use

This latest generation uses a new polymer formulation refined after over a hundred prototypes. The result is increased strength and longer storage life without drying out or becoming brittle. Once applied, these single-use restraints must be cut off. ASP recommends the Scarab Cutter for fast, controlled removal.
