SOF-Tactical Tourniquet - Wide

The SOF Tactical Tourniquet - Wide (SOFTT-W) is the result of two years research of user feedback and laboratory study and builds on the success of the original SOFTT.

Weighing only 90g the SOFTT-W is light, compact, robust and easy to apply. The SOFTT-W is ideal for use by all military, tactical and civilian medical providers.

The SOFTT-W is easy to learn to use and is re-useable.

High-strength, light-weight components are used throughout; ensuring reliability in the most demanding of circumstances and on the largest of limbs.

The simple clip and buckle allows for rapid application of the strap without a need to re-route it, yet provides a highly secure fastening. This makes the SOFTT-W easier to use under stress and reduces application time, resulting in reduced blood loss and better patient care.

The SOFTT-W has a true 1.5" tourniquet strap, providing a better compression pattern than most other tourniquets.  It uses a high-strength aircraft aluminium windlass, virtually eliminating the risk of windlass failure and there is no Velcro© anywhere, so the SOFTT-W can perform effectively when wet, muddy, sandy or frozen.

The SOFTT-W is the latest evolution of the SOFTT, used by US Special Forces in extreme environments and has been found to be 100% effective by a US Army Institute of Surgical Research evaluation.

Can also be supplied in orange to stand out against tactical clothing and equipment.

 Features:

  • A true 1.5" strap for increased constricting pressure and patient comfort.
  • Quick-release, snap-lock buckle design, allowing rapid routing of the strap around trapped limbs without
    rethreading.
  • Lower-profile, light- weight alloy components, providing the required strength and durability only metal can
    offer.
  • Single application method regardless of location 
  • 25% lighter than the previous SOFTM Tactical Tourniquet and reduced size for easier storage.

To apply: 

  1. Apply around limb
  2. Clip buckle together and tighten strap
  3. Twist windlass until bleeding is controlled
  4. Secure windlass in tri-ring
