Currently being used by militaries across the globe, the Special Operations Forces Tactical Tourniquet is designed to save lives by effectively stopping extremity bleeding and reducing shock. This tourniquet is designed for one-handed, self application and its strong construction makes it the tourniquet of choice.
Advantages:
Effevtive: Proven to be 100% effective during US Army Institute of Surgical Research Testing
Durable: The SOF Tactical Tourniquet is constructed of high strength materials. The tourniquet handle (windlass) is machined from a solid piece of aircraft aluminum and maintains its strength in extreme temperatures. The tri-rings are molded Acetyl, a high impact plastic, that will also maintain its strength in extreme operating conditions.
Reliable: The SOF Tactical Tourniquet is designed to reduce the chance of accidental release or mechanical failure. Unlike other materials, incluing Velcro, the fastening system will perform when soiled, muddy, frozen or wet. The safety screw prevents loss of pressure during patient transport. Dual locking rings offer a back-up locking system.
Low maintenance: Safety screwes and buckles are now factory coated with a rust preventative lubricant. Components are unaffected by temperature changes or salt water.
