This type of baton can be opened by swinging the handle into a free space or by pulling out the tubes by the baton's tip. The locking mechanism then locks the tubes into the expanded position. The lock is released when you press the button at the end of the handle and push the baton tip inward.

 

Easy Lock hardened batons meet the requirements of the German standard for telescopic batons and have received the certificate issued by testing laboratory at MPA Hannover, Germany.

 

The black nickel-zinc surface treatment of the baton's telescopic tubes ensures resistance against scratching.

Opening the baton

The baton can be opened in three ways according to the situation and the user’s preferences:

  1. If the baton is carried in the BHT type holder, the tubes of the baton will automatically extend when it’s pulled out of the holder. More information on this holder can be found below.
  2. Extend the telescopic tubes by pulling on the tip so that they snap tightly into one another.
  3. Flick the baton slightly downward, in a horizontal direction or slightly upward with sufficient speed for the telescopic tubes to slide out and hold firmly open.


Closing the baton

The best feature of the Easy Lock baton is the push button closing method. The lock is released when you press the button at the end of the handle and push the baton tip inward. The tubes can then easily be pushed back inside the handle.

The baton can always be closed easily and effortlessly, no matter the force with which the baton opened. There's also no need to look for any hard surface to close the baton as you would with a Friction Lock expandable baton.

The baton can be closed only with the button located at the end of the handle. It is not possible to close it by hitting it on a hard surface as that may cause damage to the baton mechanism.



Resistance test

During drop tests the baton was dropped from a 2-meter height onto concrete (the German standard requires only wood, which is a much softer surface). It was then possible to close the baton as smoothly as before.

The baton has been tested by opening and closing 6 000 times, and the mechanism continues to perform flawlessly.

The locking mechanism was tested repeatedly by submerging the baton into mud and then operating normally.



Types of handles

Specially designed rubber handle enables a secure hold. The rubber material is certified for long-term contact with the skin without health risks. Two types of handles are available:

 

Anti-slip handle with a rough surface "H"

Its design significantly decreases possibility of the baton being yanked from the hand and gives the user a comfortable certitude.

Swiveling holder supplied with the expandable baton

BHT-55 – Swiveling holder supplied with the Easy Lock expandable batonsBHT-55 Swiveling holder

Easy Lock batons can be 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.

The plastic holder BHT makes the automatic extension of the telescopic tubes possible when pulling out the baton. The baton will already be fully extended when taken out of its holder, which will save time in a critical situation.

If you don’t find this method of extending the baton useful, you can remove the holding base from the bottom of the holder (after unscrewing the two screws on the back of the holder). The baton will now remain closed when taken out of the holder.



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-A 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.



Accessories for Easy Lock expandable baton

Due to the button located in the baton ending, it is not possible to add any accessories to the baton handle. Only detection mirrors BMO-02 and BMO-03 can be fitted onto the baton, other ESP accessories are not compatible.
