The C-A-T® uses a Self-Adhering Band and a Friction Adaptor Buckle to fit a wide range of extremities combined with a one-handed windlass system. The windlass uses a free moving internal band to provide true circumferential pressure to an extremity. The windlass is then locked in place; this requires only one hand, with the Windlass Clip™. The C-A-T® also has a Hook-and-Loop Windlass Strap™ for further securing of the windlass during patient transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NAR C-A-T® is a true one-handed tourniquet proven to be 100% effective by the U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research.

The C-A-T®’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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Enhancements:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindlass rod is twice as strong as before with an increased diameter and improved grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinforced windlass clip \u0026amp; highly visible security tab includes a writeable area to record the time of application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeaturing NAR’s Red Tip Technology™ with a red elliptical tip to assist user in locating and threading during application\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAwarded as one of the “Top 10 Greatest Inventions” by the U.S. Army\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOfficial Tourniquet of the U.S. Army\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsed by both conventional and Special Operation forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProven to be 100% effective in occluding blood flow in both upper \u0026amp; lower extremities by the U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue, one-handed application tourniquet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuickly controls life-threatening extremity bleeding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended by the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to perform in all weather conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall and cost-effective\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: \u003cspan class=\"productView-info-value\"\u003eOne size fits all\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.5 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productView-info-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productView-info-row\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProduct Downloads\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1664\/1057\/files\/30-0001_nar_blk_c-a-t_ifu__8x11.pdf?v=1729777385\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCAT Gen 7 Instructions for use\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1664\/1057\/files\/30-0001_cat_pis.pdf?v=1729777455\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T) -

The Combat Application Tourniquet® (C-A-T®) (GEN 7) is a small and lightweight one-handed tourniquet that completely occludes arterial blood flow in an extremity. The C-A-T® uses a Self-Adhering Band and a Friction Adaptor Buckle to fit a wide range of extremities combined with a one-handed windlass system. The windlass uses a free moving internal band to provide true circumferential pressure to an extremity. The windlass is then locked in place; this requires only one hand, with the Windlass Clip™. The C-A-T® also has a Hook-and-Loop Windlass Strap™ for further securing of the windlass during patient transport.
The NAR C-A-T® is a true one-handed tourniquet proven to be 100% effective by the U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research. Tests proved that the C-A-T® completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.
The C-A-T® utilizes a durable windlass system with a free-moving internal band providing true circumferential pressure to the extremity. Once adequately tightened, bleeding will cease and the windlass is locked into place. A Hook and Loop strap is then applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty evacuation. The C-A-T®’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 C-A-T® uses a Self-Adhering Band and a Friction Adaptor Buckle to fit a wide range of extremities combined with a one-handed windlass system. The windlass uses a free moving internal band to provide true circumferential pressure to an extremity. The windlass is then locked in place; this requires only one hand, with the Windlass Clip™. The C-A-T® also has a Hook-and-Loop Windlass Strap™ for further securing of the windlass during patient transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NAR C-A-T® is a true one-handed tourniquet proven to be 100% effective by the U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research. Tests proved that the C-A-T® completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C-A-T® utilizes a durable windlass system with a free-moving internal band providing true circumferential pressure to the extremity. Once adequately tightened, bleeding will cease and the windlass is locked into place. A Hook and Loop strap is then applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty evacuation. The C-A-T®’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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Enhancements:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindlass rod is twice as strong as before with an increased diameter and improved grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinforced windlass clip \u0026amp; highly visible security tab includes a writeable area to record the time of application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeaturing NAR’s Red Tip Technology™ with a red elliptical tip to assist user in locating and threading during application\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAwarded as one of the “Top 10 Greatest Inventions” by the U.S. Army\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOfficial Tourniquet of the U.S. Army\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsed by both conventional and Special Operation forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProven to be 100% effective in occluding blood flow in both upper \u0026amp; lower extremities by the U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue, one-handed application tourniquet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuickly controls life-threatening extremity bleeding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended by the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to perform in all weather conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall and cost-effective\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: \u003cspan class=\"productView-info-value\"\u003eOne size fits all\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.5 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productView-info-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productView-info-row\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProduct Downloads\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1664\/1057\/files\/30-0001_nar_blk_c-a-t_ifu__8x11.pdf?v=1729777385\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCAT Gen 7 Instructions for use\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1664\/1057\/files\/30-0001_cat_pis.pdf?v=1729777455\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T) - Product Information Sheet\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T) - Product Information Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e"}
