Made in USA
The Gen 4 is built upon its original ruggedness and durability, which was the result of an exhaustive 24-month research initiative compiling end-user research and laboratory studies.
Its design allows the tourniquet to slide over a limb or, if the limb is trapped, the tourniquet can be rapidly disconnected and reconnected around the limb without re-threading the strap.
With one application method for both the arm and the leg, the SOF Tourniquet Gen 4 is the easiest tourniquet to operate under stress, which can lead to reduced levels of blood loss and ultimately better quality patient care.
The Gen 4 still maintains its true 1.5” tourniquet strap, providing a wider compression pattern than most standard tourniquets or tourniquets with a 1” constricting band moving through a 1.5” sleeve. The wider compression pattern results in additional arterial compression and increased patient comfort.
Additionally, each tourniquet comes with two UV-resistant black rubber bands for mounting to your individual equipment.
Features
-
The Retention Clip helps to secure the windlass by locking it in place once the tourniquet has been applied. This is especially helpful for one-handed applications, resulting in faster application times and doubling the security of the device in combination with the tri-ring during patient movements.
-
5.5" Windlass The increase in length eases the process of securing the windlass into the clip and tri-ring, increasing the effectiveness of the dual retention system. It still maintains its distinct conical ends while being machined from a single piece of aircraft-grade aluminum bar stock and anodized to minimize the product's signature in a tactical environment.
-
Quick-Compression Buckle added to the tourniquet last year, allows for smoother buckle manipulation due to its rounded edges. This also allows for easier one-handed application and overall faster application time.
-
Reinforced Material The tourniquet is comprised of high-strength, lightweight alloy components.
