Tests  proved that the C-A-T® completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in  the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe  C-A-T® utilizes a durable windlass system with a patented free-moving  internal band providing true circumferential pressure to the extremity.  Once adequately tightened, bleeding will cease and the windlass is  locked into place. A hook and loop windlass retention strap is then  applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty  evacuation. The C-A-T®’s unique dual securing system avoids the use of  screws and clips which can become difficult to operate under survival  stress or where fine motor skills are compromised.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe patented  Combat Application Tourniquet® (C-A-T®) featuring the proprietary red  tip design and the mechanical advantage of a band within a band has been  the Official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army since 2005.
