Engineered for rapid application, SAM XT’s innovative design normalizes the number of windlass turns needed compared to traditional tourniquets, enabling easier, faster training and intuitive use. SAM XT’s TRUFORCE™ Buckle technology auto-locks at a predetermined amount of circumferential force, eliminating nearly all tourniquet slack. Simply click, twist, and secure for a life-preserving tourniquet application.
SAM XT Extremity Tourniquet is recommended by the U.S. Department of Defense's Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (CoTCCC).
- TRUFORCE Buckle: Slack is the main cause of a failed tourniquet application. The TRUFORCE buckle technology auto-locks to eliminate nearly all tourniquet slack through innovative baseline force control and activating locking prongs.
- TRUFLEX Plate: Made of 100% nylon, the TRUFLEX Plate distributes forces as targeted circumferential pressure while providing additional support for the metal windlass rod.
- Metal Windlass Rod & Time Band: Machined from extruded bars of strong, lightweight 6061-T6 true billet aluminum. The weather-resistant, night-vision-optimized Time Band allows for secure usage in any environment.
- Precision Strap: Velcro-dependent tourniquets can fail when wet or dirty. SAM XT solves this with the all-weather Precision Strap, made of single-layer nylon webbing with intervaled holes that lock with the TRUFORCE Buckle for a consistent, efficient primary security system. The secondary hook and loop system secures the remaining strap for added stability and safety.
