These are devices that you use IN ADDITION TO other locking restraints to make the bondage temporarily inescapable. You can bolt yourself down, or chain up another guy and leave him. These are available from Mr S. Here’s a product description courtesy of Richard Hunter, owner of Mr S:

The all-metal lock uses the principle of ice slowly melting to release the inside plunger that connects the two solid welded rings on each end. One end is padlocked to a stationary point, such as a headboard, a bedpost, a D ring in the floor, an overhead chain or even a hoist. The other end ring is then padlocked to the restraints on your prisoner.

It’s a “timed” lock lasting around 2 hours for self-bondage, or for just leaving a man in bondage waiting for the time to run down, so he can free himself. It’s up to you imagination to find many different uses and scenes that you can put this new timed lock to use.

“We have done quite a lot of playing with these and really love how the physiological effects are magnified when you really can’t get out of your bondage and you just have to wait until the lock opens up on its own — sweet and fucking hot,” Richard said, when the ice locks were first introduced.

 As you can see there are many different uses for Ice Locks. For example, a prisoner can be locked inside a cage with them:

Or a guy can be locked to a bed while wearing army boots and leg shackles:

Or perhaps you might want to chain a guy to a ring in the wall or floor and make him wait it out:

Another guy at Mr S was locked by his balls about 10 inches off the ground:

“With all the pulling on this and him wrapping his warm hands around the cylinder to try and make the ice melt faster, he only had to hang there for about 45 minutes,” Richard says.

“Finally it popped open and he fell to the ground,” Richard says. “It was another research product evaluation scene at Mr. S — somebody’s got to do it, you know. The ice cold water dripping down on his balls as it melted was a nice touch.”

That’s awesome. And of course there is always the classic hogtie position as well:

Here is some additional information on the Ice Locks from Mr S:

Make sure that no keys are within reach, so the captive is locked in place until the ice melts and the two metal parts come apart, allowing the captive to then reach the keys to the restraints. The time can vary from 40 minutes to a little more then 2 hours. The time will vary depending on how much water you fill the cylinder with or what the temperature in the room is. The colder the room is the longer it will take the ice to melt and the longer the prisoner is locked down. The timing will start from the time you remove the lock from the freezer, not from the time you actually lock yourself down, so wait as long as possible before you take the lock out of the freezer. Get everything set up first.

For those into self-bondage scenes, this is a perfect solution to getting everything tied in place, but just not being able to make that last part locked so you can’t get out. As a safety measure you’ve always had to have a key within reach so that you will be able to get yourself out at some point. This new Ice Lock can let you really escape into that place where you are really tied up, or locked up, and can’t get out, at least for up to 2 hours. A bondage enthusiast will think of many different ways to put this little timed lock to good use. In fact part of the fun of this will be to see how long the lock works, depending on the room temperature, the amount of water you fill it with and how much pulling and tugging you do on it while trying to free yourself.

Since the time can vary, this leaves you with an “unknown” factor just to fuck with your head a little. So if you are doing this to yourself, you might want to make sure you’ll be fine in whatever predicament you have put yourself in for about 3 hours just to be safe. This is such simple mechanical technology that nothing can really go wrong with this device. But still, make sure you follow all the normal safety precautions when playing by yourself. That means check in with a trusted friend.

Some guys might want to get more then one of these to use in multiple ways. Both hands and feet attached spread eagle to the front and bottom of the bed as an idea.

One possible way of using this on a prisoner is that after playing with him for as long as you want, you can lock him up in what ever position you want and hook one of these ice locks to his restrains and the bed — with the keys to his handcuffs way out of reach. You can tell him you’re leaving and he can free himself within a couple of hours and meet you at the bar once he gets loose.

The number of different scenarios you’ll be able to think of for self-bondage is endless. This will take the enjoyment of self-bondage to a whole new level in a very quick and simple way.
