Handcuffs black filled icon
Pair of handcuffs joined by a short chain, each ring showing a keyhole
About the Handcuffs black filled icon
Two thick wrist rings hang at a diagonal, joined by a short two-link chain, with a small keyhole dash on each lock housing and the ratchet arm visible where it enters the body. It is direct shorthand for arrest and detention, fitting crime news sections, police and legal service sites, court reporting graphics, prison documentaries and security training material.
The lower cuff is drawn larger and closer to the viewer, which gives depth without shading, while the double-stroke rings keep the opening clearly hollow. Pair it with badge, gavel and jail cell icons; the keyholes close up below 32 px, so reach for the filled style at small sizes.
This is the solid black filled version of the handcuffs icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
