The CAT GEN7 has been re-designed, making it the most effective Combat Application Tourniquet® to date
The new CAT GEN7 is simpler to use thanks to a single application protocol, single buckle routing system and further improvements to its components and construction
The Single Routing Buckle is a direct response to in-depth reviews of field and testing reports
Featuring a new single-routing buckle system, the GEN7 allows for simpler and faster application with more efficient slack removal resulting in decreased blood loss with fewer windlass turns
1) Single Routing Buckle: Decreased blood loss, effective slack removal, fewer windlass turns, simplified training with single protocol application standards
2) Windlass Rod: Increased diameter, enhanced strength, aggressive ribbing improves grip
3) Windlass Clip: Bilateral bevelled entry, rapid windlass lock, bilateral buttress, added strength Bucklesingle
4) Windlass Strap: New reinforced strap, grey colour for tactical considerations (Black only)
5) Stabilization Plate: Reinforced, bevelled contact bar, improved comfort
