details
Designed by Special Forces medics and rigorously tested both on and off the battlefield, the SOF® Tourniquet is popular with elite military units and emergency responders worldwide. The low-elasticity, reinforced polyester compression tourniquet allows for rapid one- or two-handed donning. The durable buckle quickly releases and re-locks, allowing easy access to tight spaces and trapped limbs. Additionally, a patented indicator wedge is sewn under the pivot to visually confirm that there is no remaining tourniquet slack for effective use. The pivot is made of aircraft-grade aluminum with a textured surface for stable rotation. The pivot locks onto the Tri-Ring Lock™ and Tourniquet Retention Assistance Clip™ (TRAC) for secure fit.
SOF® Tourniquet Key Features:
-
HIGH-PERFORMANCE PRESSURE STRAP: Made of reinforced polyester that provides increased compression during use. At 1.5 inches wide, this strap slides over the buckle quickly and minimizes pressure loss after use.
-
Slack Indicator Wedge: Sewn under the pivot point to confirm that you have removed all the slack from the strap, an important step in operation.
-
Durable Buckle: Designed to pull slack in one go. The shape of the buckle keeps the strap in place at any angle. Made of high-strength, lightweight composite material.
-
HIGH-STRENGTHEN ALUMINUM SPINNING SHAFT: Constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum, it is 5.5" long with a conical tip and textured surface for stable rotation. Anodized finish for added durability in harsh environments.
-
Tourniquet Retention Assistance Clip™ (TRAC): Holds the pivot until locked into the Tri-Ring Lock™ for added stability during one-handed use.
-
Tri-Ring Lock™: Locks the pivot shaft to prevent movement during patient transfer. One-handed operation.
-
Time record label: For recording the time using the strap.
