  • It is hard and has a feeling of in escapability about it which can appeal, in use there is a strong contrast between the softness of the skin and the hardness of the chain.
  • Used with chain clips or padlocks, chain can be joined quickly and easily and does not require a knowledge of knots.
  • Chain (unlike rope) can be used to tether someone to a fixed object without having to bind them.
  • Chain used in conjunction with padlocks can be used to construct inescapable restraints which still leave the victim with a degree of freedome of movement (for household chores etc.).
