If a Transformer needs to restrain another and more sophisticated means aren't available, they can always fall back on simply tying their enemy/opponent/victim up with energon chains. Energon chains are applied with the aid of a gun, which doubles as the chains' generator. If the gun is destroyed, so are the chains.
Fiction
The Transformers cartoon
After defeating them in battle at the Great Falls, Megatron had a group of Autobots collected, wrapped up in energon chains and lined up for their execution. Before the Decepticons could fire at their helpless foes, backup arrived in the form of the Dinobots. With the Decepticons busy, Wheeljack made his way to his comrades. He used Sideswipe's flare gun to dry them off and Bluestreak's gun to re-energize them, and this somehow made the chains disappear. Don't ask. S.O.S. Dinobots
G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers
Though not specifically called such, Perceptor seemingly used energon chains to restrain Starscream. G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers II #1
Robots in Disguise cartoon
When the Predacons had captured Side Burn, Dark Scream shot him in energon chains. And when Optimus Prime came to rescue his soldier, he too was tied up. Megatron proceeded to beat up his enemy in preparation of killing him, but was prevented from doing so because Prowl destroyed the energon chain gun, thus freeing his commander and comrade. Sideburn's Obsession
Games
