If it can be said that the American handcuffs manufacturer ASP is among the best in the world, then it can also be said that the Ultra Plus Tactical model is among the best they offer. It is no wonder that these handcuffs received the prestigious gold award "Member Tested and Recommended" from the NTOA (National Tactical Officers Association).
The ASP Ultra Plus Tactical handcuffs are based on the Ultra model, which was already positively received. The word Plus in the name suggests that the bar will be set even higher this time. The most significant new feature is the so-called keyless double locking, which is quick and intuitive. You only need to press the locking bar with your finger, which is color-coded differently from the rest of the handcuffs, so you can identify it at a glance.
Materials are naturally important in the manufacture of handcuffs. The main material used for the frame of the ASP Ultra Plus Tactical handcuffs is forged aluminum 7075 T6, which makes these handcuffs highly durable, yet also quite lightweight. The frame is ergonomic, reducing the risk of injury to the arrested person as well as the police officer involved.
And we can delve further into ergonomics. The contact arch of the handcuffs is conical and flat, making it better adaptable to different wrist shapes. At the same time, the application of the handcuffs is faster and more accurate, and as we've said, the risk of injury is reduced to a minimum.
The Ultra handcuffs, including the Plus Tactical variant, are equipped with advanced key slots that are ambidextrous (on both sides of both frames) and operate with a single turn. The primary and double locks are then released by turning the key in one direction. Moreover, the double locks can be unlocked and locked without releasing the arches, allowing for continuous safe adjustment of tightness.
An additional advantage of the ASP Ultra Plus Tactical handcuffs is that they include interchangeable lock sets. The individual mechanisms are separate, so if replacement is necessary, you don't have to change everything at once. Replacing mechanisms may be required, for example, to comply with rules and standards for specific scenarios of handcuff use.
The American brand ASP (Armament Systems & Procedures) brings significant progress in the design and functionality of handcuffs. Their models have been designed, tested, and refined in the field with contributions from officers and tactical instructors from around the world. The result is models made of revolutionary materials, with modern construction and a set of features not found on other handcuffs.
