77,42 €ExBTO-18HE-BK is a professional, hardened Easy Lock expandable baton with a length of 18" / 460 mm, equipped with an ergonomic HE (Ergonomic Grip) handle and a rounded Round Ending tip. Designed for discreet carry close to the body. The version without a holder / mount is particularly suitable for users who value compact dimensions, ease of carry, and the lowest possible weight.
Easy Lock is a modern expandable baton locking system operated by a button located at the end of the handle. The baton can be deployed in three ways: automatically when drawn from the BHT-54 holder, manually by pulling out the telescopic sections by the baton tip, or conventionally with a wrist swing. Manual deployment is particularly useful when discreet opening is preferred or when there is not enough space to perform a full swing. To collapse the baton, press the Easy Lock button and then use the other hand to push the telescopic sections back into the handle. The manufacturer does not recommend collapsing the baton by striking or pressing its tip against a hard surface.
Handle – black, with an ergonomically shaped HE (Ergonomic Grip) profile that facilitates secure and comfortable baton handling. The rubber grip surface provides a stable hold and good control during use. The durable connection between the handle and the baton construction increases its strength and improves grip stability.
Steel – the telescopic components are manufactured from cold-drawn seamless steel tubes of grade ČSN 12 060 (Czech standard), equivalent to Ck55 (DIN 17200) and C55E (EN 10083-1 + A1). The individual tubes are hardened to between 47 ± 2 HRC and 51 ± 2 HRC, depending on the component. This provides high resistance to deformation during intensive use.
Finish – the telescopic metal components are coated with a black nickel-zinc finish (Black Ni-Zn), increasing surface resistance to abrasion.

The locking mechanisms in telescopic batons determine how securely they deploy and how they fold back. We compare the friction lock system—which relies on pressure against a hard surface—with the push-button mechanical lock that allows for retraction without striking the baton.
