The ASP Hinge Ultra Plus Cuffs combine a forged 7075-T6 aluminum frame with a steel bow and hinged restraint configuration. Featuring a single-pawl mechanism, keyless double lock, and unitized replaceable lock assembly, they emphasize controlled movement, durable construction, and practical serviceability in an American-made design.
The ASP Hinge Ultra Plus Cuffs with Steel Bow combine a forged aluminum frame with a hinged center connection and durable steel bows. Unlike chain restraints that allow greater independent movement between the cuffs, the hinge configuration creates a more closely connected structure. This model further distinguishes itself from the aluminum-bow version through its steel bow construction.
The primary frame is forged from 7075-T6 aluminum, providing a strong foundation while avoiding an entirely steel construction. Steel bows provide the specified working components, creating a mixed-material restraint system that balances the characteristics of both metals.
A single-pawl mechanism controls the locking action. ASP also incorporates a keyless double lock, allowing the secondary locking feature to be engaged without requiring the restraint key for that step.
The hinge connection is the defining feature of this Ultra Plus configuration. It keeps the two cuffs closely linked and provides a distinctly different handling profile from ASP's Chain Ultra Plus models.
The lock assembly is unitized and replaceable, allowing the complete locking mechanism to be serviced as a module rather than treating it as a permanently integrated component. This design adds practical maintainability to the restraint system.
The ASP Hinge Ultra Plus Steel Bow model is well suited for buyers who prefer a hinged restraint with durable steel bows. Its forged aluminum frame, keyless double lock, and replaceable lock module provide a practical combination of controlled handling, material durability, and serviceability.
