The CAT Tourniquet (Combat Application Tourniquet) utilizes a durable windlass system with a patented 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 windlass retention strap is then applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty evacuation. The CAT Tourniquets 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.
The C.A.T GEN7 includes a re-design of 6 key components.
- SINGLE ROUTING BUCKLE: Decreased blood loss, effective slack removal, fewer windlass turns, simplified training with single protocol application standards
- WINDLESS ROD: Increased diameter, enhanced strength, aggressive ribbing improves grip
- WINDLASS CLIP: Bilateral beveled entry, rapid windlass lock, bilateral buttress, added strength
- WINDLASS STRAP: New reinforced strap, grey color for tactical considerations (Black only)
- STABILIZATION PLATE: Reinforced, beveled contact bar, improved comfort
- FREE-MOVING INTERNAL BAND: Patented band within band, truly even distribution of circumferential pressure.
