Innovative and reliable emergency assistance with the SAM XT Tourniquet black
The SAM XT Tourniquet is a revolutionary tourniquet, specially developed for fast and reliable ligation of the extremities. Thanks to its innovative design, the SAM XT requires fewer windlass turns, saving time and effort. When putting on the SAM XT you will get an audible "click" if the strap is tightened firmly enough, which provides additional confirmation of the correct application.
A common mistake when using tourniquets is too much slack in the band. The special SAM XT 'Truforce' buckle automatically locks the tourniquet at a predetermined amount of force, eliminating all play. This ensures a very effective and safe ligation.
The SAM XT Extremity Tourniquet combines the advantages of the most commonly used tourniquets, such as a wide strap and a metal windlass. The automatic buckle makes it easy and quick to use, even with self-application. This is especially important for tactical units of police and defense. The "clicking" sound of the buckle confirms that the tourniquet has been tightened enough, making this tourniquet unique and extremely reliable.
