Introducing the Authentic Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT) - the ultimate life-saving tool that has been recognized as the top prehospital option by The Journal of Trauma. Developed with patented technology and proven 100% effective by the U.S. Army's Institute of Surgical Research, this one-handed tourniquet is a must-have for any emergency situation.
The CAT Gen 7 is the most advanced version yet, featuring a strong windlass system and an internal band that applies uniform pressure around the affected limb. With just one hand, you can securely tighten the tourniquet, halting bleeding and saving precious time. No screws or clips to fumble with - the CAT is designed for high-stress, low-dexterity situations.
Unlike other tourniquets on the market, the CAT is the Official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army and has been since 2005. Its patented red tip design and the mechanical advantage of a band within a band make it a trusted tool for professionals worldwide. The CAT's innovations are protected by U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253.
But that's not all - the CAT Gen 7 comes with exciting product enhancements. The new Single Routing Buckle allows for faster application, decreased blood loss, and simplified training with single protocol application standards. The reinforced windlass rod with increased diameter provides enhanced strength and improved grip. The bilateral windlass clip ensures rapid windlass lock, while the bilateral buttress adds extra strength. The windlass strap is now tactical gray and sonic welded to the clip for constant contact and safe windlass security. Plus, the reinforced stabilization plate with a beveled contact bar ensures stability during application.
With its signature red elliptical tip (Red Tip Technology®), the CAT provides a visual cue during application, ensuring accurate and efficient use. Its patented free-moving internal band ensures true evenly distributed circumferential pressure, maximizing effectiveness.
Compact and portable, the CAT Gen 7 is packaged at L 6.5 in. x W 2.4 in. x D 1.5 in., making it easy to carry with you wherever you go.

I should have had one of these a long time ago
No comment needed, it’s a CAT. But, shipping is faster than NAR and with the GB2 Membership, I got four for the price of three. Four limbs, four CATs.
This product speaks for itself. This is one of those items that I hope I’ll never have to use but I will keep one with in reach at all times.
Making sure everyone in my family has one if not two of these on them at all times. I've heard stories of people bleeding out in a wide variety of accidents and 'incidents' before the ambulance arrives. This could have been prevented. Worth carrying? You decide.
Quality of this product seems to first rate. Thank God I haven't had to use it as of yet. I'm sure it is more than adequate.
