North American Rescue C-A-T Combat Application Tourniquet (Black) NAR Genuine Gen 7 CAT Gray Time-Stamped Military Issued (30-0001)

Solid addition to the first aid kit. Great quality. Good value. Hope I never have to use it.

Very quick delivery. Bought based on the feedback of others. Seems to be a well-made product. At the time of this review I have not used and truthfully, hope I never have to. However, in the event of emergency, having a quality product available, provides peace of mind.

If you need a TQ this is the one.

NAR is the Gold Standard for first aid equipment. I carried (previous generations) of these in combat. I've seen them used many times, and I've never seen one fail.

This is one of those things that you buy and then pray you never have to use it! But, it's far better to have one and not need it than to not have one and desperately need it. A tourniquet will save a life, absolutely. This tourniquet is affordable, it's light and it's compact, so there's really no excuse for not having one. There are several recent studies which have updated the guidelines for when and where to use a tourniquet. I strongly recommend reviewing the most current information related to usage. Improper use can cause more harm than good. I also strongly urge practicing using the device in a non-emergency situation so you are familiar with how it operates and aren't trying to figure it out in a critical life or death situation. Every First Aid Kit (FAK) should have a tourniquet.

Feels great looks great

Just like the ones we used in the army

I carry the North American Rescue C-A-T Combat Tourniquet regularly—thankfully I've never had to actually use it, but I trust its reliability completely. It's well-made, intuitive, and easy to deploy quickly in an emergency.Knowing I have this in my kit gives me peace of mind, especially at the range or during training. There's a reason professionals rely on it daily—it's an essential piece of safety gear I recommend everyone have on hand.
