PlastiCuffs (also calle FlexiCuffs) are a form of physical restraint for the hands, using plastic straps. They effectively play the same role as handcuffs, except that they are cheaper, easier to carry, and cannot be reused. The traditional form of PlastiCuffs are cable ties, either two interlocking straps, or a single cable tie around both wrists. More recently, plastics-manufacturing companies have started to produce special plasticuff devices, comprising two interconnected straps as one item. These are generally injection moulded nylon items, selling for tens of cents each.
