One of the major causes of failure in tourniquet application is insufficient constricting pressure on the initial application prior to turning the windlass. The SAM XT Tourniquet differs from other windlass tourniquets in that it features an auto-stop system that allows for instant tightening of the constricting band to the proper tension prior to engaging the windlass. This saves time and ensures effective occlusion of blood flow when pressure is applied with the windlass. SAM XT is CoTCCC recommended.
BAND
Weather-resistant hook and loop system functions when fully
submerged, providing maximum security in the harshest weather.
Outer material is optimized for night vision
WINDLASS C-HOOKS
Secures the Metal Windlass Rod using an intuitive angular design,
making windlass locking easier and more efficient.
TRUFLEX™ PLATE
Durable nylon construction distributes force as targeted pressure
for maximum strength and flexibility, able to bend on smaller
extremities without breaking.
TRUFORCE™ BUCKLE
Innovative auto-lock technology activates locking prongs,
eliminating slack typically found in all other tourniquet applications.
METAL WINDLASS ROD
Machined from extruded bars of strong, lightweight 6061-T6 true
billet aluminum for consistent reliability when compared to plastic
composites.
PRECISION STRAP
Velcro-dependent tourniquets can fail when wet or dirty. The
all-weather Precision Strap is made of single-layer nylon webbing.
It features intervaled holes that lock with the TRUFORCE™ Buckle to
create a consistent, efficient primary security system. The secondary
hook and loop system secures the remaining strap, adding stability
and safety.
PRECISION TAB
Intuitive design allows for quicker, easier tourniquet application.
Material is optimized for night vision.
