SWAT-T Tourniquet Black 2 Pack, Emergency Equipment for Massive Hemorrhage Control, Made in The USA

Bien

The SWAT-Tourniquet is great. I trained with these in a local Stop The Bleed class (google it and find one near you). 1. I say they are a good secondary tourniquet because they are not super quick or easy to use on yourself (speaking primarily of arm application. Legs are easier.). However, they do work well if you’re applying them to others because it’s easier to stretch and wrap them tighter. 2. If you have a wound that needs pressure held after packing and you have other wounds to treat, this works great as a pressure bandage. Takes up less space in an IFAK than an Israeli style bandage and can hold as much pressure on a packed wound. I carry one of these in my EDC IFAK. I carry an ankle cuff kit from North American Rescue with a CAT Tourniquet (my primary go-to especially for myself), wound packing gauze with a hemostatic agent, 2 Hyfin vented chest seals, and a SWAT-T. I feel that the SWAT-T rounds out a lightweight IFAK because it can be used for multiple things.

Very good product. Perfect for every day carry if you do security or law enforcement.

They are real swat Ts. Lightweight and compact, Perfect for any family first aid kit, glove box, back pack or so on where an adult, dog, child or older patient could be the recipient of this life saving tool.

Easier to apply than windlass tourniquets and causes less localized tissue damage. Also can be used as a pressure dressing. Some say it’s harder to self-apply but I think they’re trying to get the first wrap tight which is unnecessary if subsequent wraps are tight. They pack easy and can be made from a bike tube if needed
