Smith and Wesson Belly Chain with Handcuffs

Waist Chain Restraint

The Smith & Wesson Belly Chain with Handcuffs is a transport restraint: a length of chain that wraps around the subject's waist, with two handcuffs attached to it. Once applied, the wrists stay near the waistline, which limits how far the arms can move. Corrections officers, transport staff and security personnel use this setup to move a detainee whose hands need more control than a standard pair of cuffs provides.

Features

• Integrated Handcuff Pair — Two handcuffs come attached to the chain, so the restraint arrives assembled and ready to apply.
• Ring-Linked Cuff Mounting — Each cuff hangs from its own metal ring on the chain, which lets it pivot rather than sit fixed in one position.
• Ratcheting Single Strand — The toothed swinging arm of each cuff ratchets closed through the cuff body, so you can tighten the fit to the wrist one click at a time.
• Full-Length Waist Chain — A long run of curb-style links goes around the waist and keeps the cuffed wrists close to the body.
• End Rings — Rings at the chain ends give you a fixed point for closing the loop around the waist.
• Additional Chain Rings — Several larger rings spaced along the chain act as extra connection points.
• All-Metal Construction — The chain, rings and cuffs are all metal with a bright silver finish.
• Smith & Wesson Build — Made by Smith & Wesson, a long-established name in law enforcement handcuffs.

How It Is Configured

The chain closes around the waist at its end rings, and the two cuffs attach to the chain by rings. When the cuffs are locked on, the hands stay at the front of the body. The cuffs use the familiar Smith & Wesson hinged-frame and ratcheting-arm design, so anyone trained on standard cuffs will find them familiar.
