Product Overview

The Israeli T3 Tactical Trauma Treatment Bandage represents the third generation of the legendary Israeli Battle Dressing lineage, engineered to go significantly further than its predecessors in wound management capability. Where the original Israeli Bandage (Emergency Bandage) is optimized for direct pressure on a single wound, the T3 is engineered for the reality that trauma patients often present with multiple wound locations and mixed wound types — and that the provider may be working alone, with one hand, under fire.

The T3's defining feature is its modular, detachable sterile pad. The pad can be used in full for large single wounds, or detached and used as two separate dressings for entrance and exit wounds of the same penetrating injury — dramatically simplifying the management of through-and-through gunshot wounds that previously required two separate bandages. The integral pressure applicator generates immediate direct pressure on the wound site, and the built-in closure bar — with no pins, clips, tape, or hook-and-loop — locks the bandage in a single motion. Folded gauze included in the package provides material for wound cleaning and packing as needed.

The non-pneumatic tourniquet function, achieved by applying the elasticized leader of the bandage with sufficient tension around a proximal limb location, is not a replacement for a dedicated tourniquet like the CAT Gen 7 or SAM XT. However, in a resource-constrained environment where a tourniquet is unavailable, the T3's ability to generate significant limb compression as an improvised tourniquet is a practical capability that other pressure bandages lack. The T3 carries an 8-year shelf life — two years longer than many comparable products — making it a strong choice for long-term kit storage.

All current shipments of the T3 arrive in Safeguard Medical's updated RAMPART packaging, which maintains the same product inside with updated labeling and packaging design.
