One Device. Two Missions.
The only tourniquet that controls both extremity AND junctional hemorrhage.

The Junctional Gap
The Threat
- 19% of potentially survivable battlefield deaths result from junctional hemorrhage (groin, pelvis, shoulder).
- Standard limb tourniquets like the C-A-T and SOF-T cannot address these wounds because they cannot encircle the torso-appendage junction.
Three Modes. One Device.
Limb Mode
Standard extremity tourniquet — windlass mechanism for arms and legs.
Inguinal Mode
Femoral artery control — targeted pressure pin for groin/junctional hemorrhage.
Clavicular/Axillary Mode
Subclavian artery control — targets the supraclavicular space for shoulder/armpit wounds.
Battlefield-Proven. Clinically Validated.
