Abstract
A seat belt retractor including a locking member, a release member to move the locking member out of its locked position and a web clamp which is engageable with seat belt webbing on the retractor to limit the spooling effect. A handle actuated mechanism actuates the release member to unlock the retractor and renders the clamp ineffective, whereby the retractor is rendered free spooling.
