Tests proved that the CAT completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage. The Gen 7 CAT 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 patented Combat Application Tourniquet® (C-A-T®) featuring the proprietary red tip design and the mechanical advantage of a band within a band has been the Official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army since 2005.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-element=\"main\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-content-type=\"html\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-element=\"main\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-content-type=\"html\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-selected=\"true\" role=\"tab\" data-alias=\"product.info.specs\" data-role=\"title\" class=\"data-item-title\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-hidden=\"false\" role=\"tabpanel\" data-role=\"content\" class=\"data-item-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product attribute specs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"value\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-page__tab__content\"\u003eSEL#: 09MS-04-BAND\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"tabbed-content__list-header\"\u003eProduct Enhancements:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-page__features\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle Routing Buckle for faster application, decreased blood loss, effective slack removal, fewer windlass turns, and simplified training with single protocol application standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinforced windlass rod with increased diameter for enhanced strength and aggressive ribbing for improved grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBilateral windlass clip for rapid windlass lock and bilateral buttress for added strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnhanced windlass strap changed to tactical gray and secured to the latch for constant contact providing safe windlass security and a place to document the application time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinforced stabilization plate with beveled contact bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignature red elliptical tip (Red Tip Technology®) provides visual cue during application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented free-moving internal band for true evenly distributed circumferential pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"tabbed-content__list-header\"\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-page__features\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAwarded as one of the “Top 10 Greatest Inventions” by the U.S. Army\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOfficial Tourniquet of the U.S. Army\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsed by both conventional and Special Operation forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProven to be 100% effective in occluding blood flow in both upper \u0026amp; lower extremities by the U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue, one-handed application tourniquet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuickly controls life-threatening extremity bleeding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended by the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to perform in all weather conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall and cost-effective\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtected by U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"tabbed-content__list-header\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-page__features\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged: L 6.5 in. x W 2.4 in. x D 1.5 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen Length: 37.5 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap Width: 1.5 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 3.04 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"North American Rescue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41550385152034,"sku":"AG-00138","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/3306\/8322\/files\/CATLABELS.jpg?v=1722908216","url":"https:\/\/checkout.activitygroup.us\/products\/combat-application-tourniquet-c-a-t","provider":"The Activity Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
