SOF Tactical Tourniquet GEN 5
SOF-T Gen 5 is the fifth generation of tactical tourniquets designed for rapid and reliable hemorrhage control. The design is improved compared to previous models: the tourniquet is easily applied by another person or oneself, providing maximum effective compression in a critical situation. The manufacturer is listed as Tacmed Solutions, with the model brand being SOF.
The 1.5" wide strap is made of a new material that allows it to pass smoothly through the buckle and create a stable cross-grip. This ensures even compression and minimizes internal pressure over time. The buckle is designed so that the strap moves correctly at any angle, facilitating application in emergency conditions.
The improved aluminum windlass is made of aircraft-grade aluminum and has a textured surface for a secure grip and to prevent slipping. Anodizing (oxide film) protects the metal from external factors. Reinforced prongs on the windlass hold it in a fixed position even without using the locking clip, and the shape of the prongs ensures convenience and reliability when applying with one hand.
A triangular indicator stitched on the strap serves as a clear marker that the permissible strap length has been pulled out — this helps to apply the tourniquet correctly, avoiding excessive turns of the windlass. The final fixation step is the triangular locking clip, which securely fixes the windlass and prevents its displacement even during active movements of the injured person.
