Product description

ABOUT THE R.A.T.S.

The Rapid Application Tourniquet System (R.A.T.S) is the fastest tourniquet on the market and is used to stop massive hemorrhaging due to trauma. The R.A.T.S. 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 R.A.T.S. when being used under stress in terms of time or ease of use.

SAFE FOR SKIN

The inner core of the strap does have some latex. The core however, is made of a vulcanized rubber with a high silicone content. Chance of latex reaction is considered the same as if exposed to an automobile tire. Core is completely wrapped in a protective polyester sheath, which acts to shield the inner core from direct contact with the skin.

VISIBLE AND EASY TO CARRY

The R.A.T.S. can fit just about anywhere on your kit. Choose between several vibrant colors to make your tourniquet stand out when it counts the most.

Features Easy to learn and use. Simply designed and allows for one handed use. Small and takes up minimal space allowing you to store them almost anywhere. Designed to also allow for use on small limbs, i.e. working dogs. Proven effective in stopping bleeding in extremities by the U.S.Army Institute of Surgical Research. Patented U.S. Pat. No. 9,168,044
