I’m building an emergency bag
What tourniquet do you recommend? Ratchet?
I’ll have all the usual stuff - bandage scissors, gauze, coban, tape, betadine, petroleum jelly, needle driver, suture, forceps, band aids, sterile saline. Anything else? |

Unless know you like ratcheting (RMT-T) or SOF-T. If Lincoln is in range, check with Jim Amentler, http://www.alphasafetytraining.net/about.html Last edited by Librarian; 06-21-2020 at 12:43 PM.. |

Ratchets take too long. Windlass is faster but RATS is definitely fastest. Plus it's cheaper and more versatile and easier to edc. |

You sure about the rats? It’s not a recommended tq by tccc for difficulty in proper application and the narrow band increases tissue damage. What about the swat t or a 1.25” belt? heck a triangular and grenade pull ring do nicely and have secondary or thrice uses. https://primaryandsecondary.com/foru...ews.793/page-2 A great read on the debate A Respectful dissenting opinion Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

We use the SWAT T and trained with them. Easy to self apply even when wet.
Many other uses besides as a TQ. I usually edc one in my front pocket. Improvised sling for a sprained or broken wing. Ankle support on the trail. Cut into strips for immobilizing a leg/arm injury with a improvised splint. NOT a one trick pony.
