{"product_id":"rothco-nickel-plated-steel-thumbcuffs","title":"Rothco Nickel-Plated Steel Thumbcuffs","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe Rothco Nickel-Plated Steel Thumbcuffs are a compact restraint tool built for law enforcement officers and security professionals who need a reliable, portable option for thumb restraint. Steel construction with a nickel-plated finish resists rust and wear. A vinyl pouch is included for carry. One size, single variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt to Hold Up in the Field\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNickel-plated steel construction gives these thumbcuffs resistance to rust and surface wear that bare steel cannot match. The polished finish is not purely cosmetic: it reduces friction in the locking mechanism and makes the cuffs easier to wipe clean after field use. For professionals who carry restraint tools regularly, a finish that holds up over time reduces replacement frequency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Lock Modes for Controlled Restraint\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe single lock mode allows the cuffs to ratchet closed during application. The double lock mode, once engaged, prevents the cuffs from tightening further. This is an important safeguard against accidental over-tightening during transport or a subject's movement. Having both modes available in one tool gives the user control over how the restraint behaves after application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompact Enough to Always Have On Hand\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 0.25 lb, these thumbcuffs add minimal weight to a duty belt, bag, or kit. The included vinyl pouch keeps them contained and accessible without requiring a dedicated rigid case. Their small footprint means they can ride as a backup restraint option alongside standard handcuffs without taking up meaningful space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNickel-plated steel construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e resists rust and surface wear for long-term durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle and double lock mechanisms:\u003c\/strong\u003e ratchets closed during application; double lock prevents accidental over-tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmooth locking system:\u003c\/strong\u003e designed for quick, consistent application\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact and lightweight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.25 lb total weight, fits in a pocket or on a duty belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVinyl pouch included:\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps the cuffs contained and ready to deploy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNickel-plated steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eIncluded accessories\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVinyl pouch\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e0.25 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCountry of origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTaiwan\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCalifornia Proposition 65\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eContains lead.
