Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T)

dimensions(length x width x height): 1.5 x 2.5 x 7

The C-A-T is a true one-handed tourniquet proven to be 100% effective by the U.S. Armys Institute of Surgical Research. Tests proved that the C-A-T completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.

The C-A-T utilizes a durable windlass system with a free-moving internal band providing true circumferential pressure to the extremity. Once adequately tightened, bleeding will cease and the windlass is locked into place. A Hook and Loop strap is then applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty evacuation. The C-A-Ts unique dual securing system avoids the use of screws and clips which can become difficult to operate under survival stress or where fine motor skills are compromised.

Product Enhancements:

• Windlass rod is twice as strong as before with an increased diameter and improved grip
• Reinforced windlass clip & highly visible security tab includes a writeable area to record the time of application
• Featuring NAR’s Red Tip Technology with a red elliptical tip to assist user in locating and threading during application
