DESCRIPTION

The Rapid Application Tourniquet System (R.A.T.S. U.S. Pat. No. 9,168,044) is the fastest tourniquet on the market and is used to stop massive hemorrhaging due to trauma. The Rapid Tourniquet uses a solid elastic core of proprietary material with a polyester sheath, combined with a patented locking mechanism to make an incredibly fast tourniquet to apply to self or others. No other tourniquet compares to the Rapid when being used under stress in terms of time or ease of use.

Generation 2 Features:

NEW: 120% longer to accommodate larger limbs!

The Rapid Tourniquet is:
•Easy to learn and use
•Simple design allows for one handed use
•Takes up minimal space allowing you to store almost anywhere
•Works on all limb sizes, i.e. adults, working dogs and children
•Proven to be effective in occluding blood flow in both upper & lower
extremities by the U.S. Army's Institute of Surgical Research
•Patented U.S. Pat. No. 9,168,044

When properly applied, the Rapid Tourniquet is a safe and effective device for controlling life-threatening hemorrhaging . The Rapid Tourniquet should be properly disposed of after use. Consult an EMS professional for proper training on any and all tourniquet use. Do not apply over solid objects. Read all directions and understand proper use before any attempt to render aid. If used due to trauma, go to the nearest hospital immediately.

SPECS

Still haven't got it!

Compact and portable

This is my second TQ of this style and I love the size for EDC and stashing places. I also use CAT T style TQs and I find them both valuable tools.

Better to Have and Not Need then Need and Not Have

They really undersell the vulcanized rubber.

The best tourniquet is the one you carry

I work for a large So. Cal PD that has strict uniform guidelines. I needed t tourniquet that could be stuffed in the trauma plate pocket area of my vest carrier (behind plate of course) without causing bulk. Rapid fit the Bill.

Must Have for your EDC

The Rapid tourniquet is a must have addition to your every day carry. I wrap them through my belt loops and cover the band with my belt to provide a low vis method of carry regardless of my level of dress. The options of black or tan helps to blend with your various belts. For those occasions when this method doesn’t work, the tourniquet compacts down small enough to fit in a pocket or bag.
Bottom line, a tourniquet is a must have, and the Rapid tourniquet affords a variety of carry options. Combine this with the ease of use and you can’t go wrong.
