The Most Popular Windlass Tourniquet - CoTCCC Recommended

The Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT) Gen 7, a one-handed military tourniquet with a patented design proven 100% effective by the U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research. Rigorous testing has demonstrated the C-A-T®'s ability to completely stop blood flow in the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.

The North American Rescue CAT 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 C-A-T®’s 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 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. The innovations in the C-A-T® are protected by U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253.

Counterfeit Warning

With the NAR Combat Application Tourniquet being one of the most widely used tourniquets, several companies in Asia have been producing and importing counterfeits into the United States. A significant number of these falsified tourniquets have found their way onto major online retail platforms, where they are marketed to unsuspecting consumers. Counterfeits pose a significant threat and can lead to loss of life, significant nerve damage and can fail upon use. We directly source our C-A-Ts from North American Rescue and only provide the latest Gen 7 model.
