Vacuum-sealing compresses the SOF® Tourniquet Gen 4, Super Stop Bandage, and wound packing supplies into a slim, rigid profile that's 40-50% smaller than traditional trauma pouches. This makes it ideal for tight storage locations like patrol car door panels, motorcycle saddlebags, or range bags where space is limited. The airtight seal also protects TCCC-approved components from moisture, dust, and contamination during long-term vehicle or field storage. Once opened, all sterile supplies remain deployment-ready for immediate hemorrhage control.

Yes. The SOF® Tourniquet Gen 4 features a true one-handed application design with a quick-release buckle and reinforced windlass system. It's TCCC-approved and meets the same CoTCCC guidelines as CAT tourniquets. The SOF® Gen 4 is preferred by many tactical medics for its wider 1.5-inch compression band that distributes pressure more evenly, reducing pain during extended wear while maintaining arterial occlusion. Both tourniquets are proven effective for extremity hemorrhage control in pre-hospital settings.

The Super Stop Bandage combines a 4-inch elastic wrap with an integrated pressure applicator and securing clip system, allowing rapid application without the complex bar-and-loop mechanism of traditional Israeli bandages. It provides direct pressure and wound coverage in one device, making it faster to deploy under stress. The elastic material conforms to irregular wound surfaces on limbs or torso, and the securing system holds tension without requiring knot-tying—critical when treating yourself or working with gloved hands in tactical environments.

Absolutely. The vacuum-sealed design creates a rigid, flat package (approximately 8" x 6" x 1.5") that mounts easily using MOLLE straps, Velcro backing, or elastic retention bands to seat backs, door panels, or center console areas. The sealed packaging protects contents from temperature extremes, humidity, and vibration during patrol operations. Many agencies mount one kit per officer vehicle as part of their active threat response protocols. The kit meets Stop the Bleed Coalition guidelines for law enforcement hemorrhage control capabilities.

Yes. This kit includes sterile wound packing supplies specifically designed for deep cavity wounds where tourniquets cannot be applied (junctional areas like groin, armpit, or neck). The packing material works with the Super Stop Bandage to create layered hemorrhage control—pack the wound cavity to reach the bleeding source, then apply the pressure bandage over the packed area. This combination addresses both compressible and non-compressible hemorrhage scenarios recommended in TCCC protocols for penetrating trauma from gunshot or stab wounds.
