Rapid Stop® Ratcheting Tourniquet
Easiest to use, fastest to occlusion.
The RapidStop Tourniquet relies on key technologies to provide rapid, intuitive and easy one-hand self-application that requires only gross motor control to achieve full occlusion in 11 seconds. Even faster when a responder uses both hands, the RapidStop Tourniquet achieves full occlusion reliably and rapidly to control hemorrhage for injuries to arms and legs between 7 and 33 inches in circumference.
Â
QUICK LOCK CLASP
Attach above the wound instead of over it.
- Single handed self-application requires only gross motor skills.
- Quickly secure the tourniquet above wound without dexterous routing through buckles or over injured or trapped limbs – even with gloves on.
- Mechanical clasp avoids hook and loop Velcro closure that can be compromised by dirt and grit.
Â
INSTANTANEOUS ONE-HAND CINCH
Vastly improve time to occlusion.
- Large and rugged 2 Inch D-Ring is easily grasped.
- Does not require a stabilizing hand.
- Supplies a 2:1 mechanical advantage prior to ratcheting.
- Will not slip, does not require using your teeth to stop it from spinning around your arm.

MECHANICAL RATCHET
Reliable full occlusion.
- A mechanical advantage of 8:1 makes it easier and quicker to achieve high compression forces.
- Dual latch release provides a secure hold that allows quick removal.
Â
UNIVERSAL MILSPEC STRAP
Fits vast majority of adult limb sizes from 7 – 33 Inches.
- A perfect fit on limbs from the 1st percentile of female upper arm sizes to the 99th percentile of male upper thigh sizes.
- 600N tensile strength is 3 times stronger than the 200N needed to fully occlude blood flow.
- Mil-W-17337 spec; 1.5 inch wide with 8,000N breaking strength and superior abrasion resistance.
Â
INTEGRATED INSTRUCTION & TIME RECORD LABEL
