Taq-Strap Information

Taq-Strap is the first-ever wearable, care-under-fire integrated tourniquet strap. This is not your every day tourniquet. This device is actually not a tourniquet at all. The Taq-Strap is designed to be deployed as a pre-positioned  "hasty" tourniquet that can provide much needed femoral occlusion, blazing fast and with one hand to keep you in the fight and able to engage the threat until the threat has passed. Once you can provide more detailed attention to the medical treatment a more permanent tourniquet should be deployed proximal to the wound and further treatment can be sought out and/or deployed as needed.  

Life-Saving Design

The Taq-Strap integrated Tourniquet replaces your standard holster strap with a pre-positioned Tourniquet that can stop a femoral bleed within seconds from the point of injury while still keeping your holster fastened to your leg. The Taq-Strap does not require any additional equipment and can be worn as a stand-alone product with the included belt strap.

Utilizing the same battle-proven ratcheting technology found in M2 Inc's TCCC approved R.M.T, the Taq-Strap is simple and can be applied with one hand, even when blind and covered in contaminants.
