XFainta Tourniquet - Professional Medical Tourniquet Combat Military Issue Army Tourniquet Application First Aid Tactical SWAT Tourniquet Lightweight Hospital Life Saving Hemorrhage

I've always thought of a tourniquet in the context of what you see in the movies. A guy rips off his shirt and tears off a piece and ties it onto the victim's arm. With this tourniquet, you have the advantage of something that is designed for this purposes. As such, it has a mechanism which ensures you have got a mechanism built into it that ensures it is sufficiently tight.The great thing is that it is a band has enough width that it minimizes the discomfort for the person whose are or leg you are trying to save.If you have it with, you can save precious minutes and be able to apply immediately so that victim loses the least amount of blood.

Product arrived quickly and was well packaged. It appears to function as advertized. However, the instructions are next to useless as they are obviously written by someone using English as a second language. The inaccuracies and incorrect word/tense usage do not make the use of the product very easy. I will look on YouTube to see if I can find videos describing similar products. If you are familair with this type of product you will likely have no issues. If this is your first time you may be frustrated.

I'm a FF/EMT and I keep a personal medical bag in my car for emergencies. I needed a tourniquet for my bag. I was very surprised on the quality of it. It's great! The Velcro is strong and it even has a place to write the time. This is a product you hope you never have to use but thankful you have it. Its affordable and great quality. You can't go wrong here.

Does what it is supposed to. Material feels cheap

I was unaware that fake tourniquets exist. These are made in China and DO NOT work like a CAT tourniquet. Not reliable for when your life depends on it...Added these to my training box.

Exactly as stated. I attend a seminar on first aid and was taught how to use a tourniquet like this. You can use it on yourself. You do need to practice and we had a demonstration on how to use it correctly. I got one for my husband to keep with his chainsaw.

This is a Chinese knockoff of the authentic "CAT" or combat application tourniquet. This is NOT military issue. If you ever need to use a tourniquet then you are at life or death situation. Do not skimp $20 dollars now because you will regret it when the time comes. Only buy REAL CATs directly (not amazon) from North American Rescue. Gen 7s run $28 dollars. Higher quality, combat proven, all serial marked and stamped.

This is a knockoff of more pricy brands. This is fine--I keep it in my first aid bag, just in case. If you ever need it, it will work.
