ESP Hardened Easy Lock 16'' Expandable Baton, Triangle, Black (ExBTT-16H-BK BHT-54)

ExBTT-16H-BK BHT-54 is a professional, hardened Easy Lock expandable baton with a length of 16" / 410 mm, equipped with a non-slip H (Anti-Slip Grip) handle and a triangular Triangular Ending handle end. The triangular ring reduces the risk of losing the baton during use and prevents it from rolling on smooth surfaces. The set includes a professional rotating BHT-54 holder, allowing quick baton draw and automatic deployment during removal. The holder is fitted with a UBC-05-A mount featuring the Quick Change System, allowing the holder to be quickly detached from the mount.

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 – type H (Anti-Slip), in black, with a rough-textured surface designed to reduce the risk of the baton slipping from the hand. Made of hypoallergenic, non-slip synthetic rubber, it fits comfortably in the hand and provides a secure and comfortable grip. The durable connection between the rubber grip and the baton construction increases the strength of the handle and facilitates secure handling.

BHT-54 holder – designed for hardened ESP Easy Lock expandable batons in 16" and 18" lengths, including versions with a rounded Round Ending (ExBT) and a triangular Triangle Ending (ExBTT), with H (Anti-Slip) and HE (Ergonomic) handles. It offers two methods of drawing the baton. The first, standard method, allows the baton to be removed in the collapsed position. The second, after fully pressing the baton into the holder, allows it to deploy automatically during the draw. For this function to operate correctly, the baton must be fully inserted into the holder so that its tip is retained by the mechanism located in the base. During removal, the tip remains momentarily secured, causing the telescopic sections to extend and lock automatically. If automatic deployment is not required, the mechanism can be removed from the lower part of the holder. The baton can be carried vertically, horizontally or at a selected angle according to the user's preference, improving carrying comfort and allowing quick access.

UBC-05-A – a slide-on belt mount with the Quick Change system, allowing the BHT-54 holder to be quickly detached and replaced with another compatible ESP holder, e.g. for a flashlight, magazine or pepper spray. The UBC-05-A clip remains attached to the belt, while holders equipped with the Quick Change System can be quickly exchanged as required. The mount is designed for belts 38–56 mm wide and, after removal of the adjustment insert, can be used with belts up to 68 mm wide, including wide duty belts. Its design allows the attached holder to rotate through a full 360° and lock into one of 16 predefined positions.

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.
