Product Overview
The TacMed™ Bleeding Control Kit is a purpose-built response to the growing "Stop the Bleed" movement — a red-bag trauma kit that is instantly recognizable, simply organized, and comprehensive enough to address life-threatening bleeding from gunshot wounds, traumatic amputations, stabbings, or vehicle accidents. The red nylon bag color is an intentional design choice: when seconds count, responders and bystanders can locate the kit instantly from across a room, vehicle, or workspace.
The SOF® Tourniquet is a CoTCCC-recommended windlass tourniquet trusted by military and law enforcement worldwide. The Esmark Bandage is a versatile elastic bleeding control bandage that functions as a pressure dressing, improvised tourniquet for pediatric or small extremities, and compression wrap — providing multi-purpose capability in a single compact item. The 4" Control Wrap completes the bandaging system with an elastic over-wrap for sustained pressure maintenance.
Three gauze options — Compressed Gauze, ChitoGauze®, and Combat Gauze® — allow buyers to select the appropriate hemostatic level for their application. Combat Gauze® (CoTCCC-recommended kaolin-impregnated gauze) is the premium option for environments where high-output bleeding is anticipated. The TacMed™ Bleeding Control Patch provides a visible identification marker for the kit location. See the Public Access Bleeding Control Kits collection or compare with the Tramedikit™.
