CAT Combat Application Tourniquet - GEN7 Orange
North American Rescue Patented Generation 7 CAT Tourniquet NSN# 6515-01-521-7976. The Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T) Generation 7 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 CAT completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.
The CAT tourniquet utilizes a durable windlass system with a patented 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 windlass retention 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 patented Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T) featuring the proprietary red tip design and the mechanical advantage of a band within a band has been the Official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army since 2005. The innovations in the CAT are protected by U.S. Patent No. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253.

I bought two of these to equip two trauma first aid kits. So far I haven't had occasion to use them (Thank God!), but the ones I've used in training are easy to use and work well. That's why I went with CAT.
