Our hardened baton is designated for professional use by the police and other security forces. It serves for fast self-defense in different conflict situations.

Unlike non-hardened baton, its tubes are made of high quality hardened steel, tested over years with millions of batons already produced using this steel. The hardening makes the telescopic tubes extremely resistant against bending even during powerful strikes.

This type of baton can be opened by a sharp swing of the handle into a free space. The expanded telescopic tubes are then firmly secured by the friction of the cones.

The baton can be closed by hitting a hard and firm surface with the tip of the baton. The more powerful the swing when opening the baton, the firmer the locking of the tubes into the expanded position – but it is then also more difficult to close the baton.

The ESP hardened batons meet the requirements of the German standard for telescopic batons (with the exception of the button-unlock batons). These expandable batons are produced with a black nickel-zinc surface treatment (with good resistance against scratching) or with a white chrome surface treatment (silver).

This baton can be used with any accessories from our selection. We have produced hardened baton in 5 lengths with 3 types of rubber handles.

Swiveling holder supplied with the expandable baton

All hardened batons are supplied with a professional swiveling plastic holder with Quick Change System, for which European patent was granted. It can be rotated in respect to the belt by full circle of 360 degrees with 16 locking positions. This holder is included in the price of the baton.

Sviwelling plastic holder BH-34 and BH-35


This holder enables:

  • very quick drawing of the baton just with one hand, since there is almost no friction thanks to automatic opening of the holder after unfastening of nylon strap,
  • with unfastened nylon strap enables carrying of expanded baton.

 

The holder is equipped with UBC-05 belt clip (part of the Quick Change System) which enables the user to quickly change between different plastic and nylon ESP holders with rotation mechanism. The clip itself remains fastened to the belt – you only need to click on the holder of choice.
