CAT® Black Tourniquet Gen 7 (NAR)

Description

The NAR CAT® Black Tourniquet Gen 7 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 will lock into place. The application of a hook and loop windlass retention strap will secure the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty evacuation. The CAT’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 North American Rescue CAT® Black Tourniquet Gen 7 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 protection of the CAT innovations feature in U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253.
