## Overview

The North American Rescue Gen 7 C-A-T Combat Application Tourniquet Trainer in blue is the official U.S. Army training device designed for realistic, hands-on tourniquet application practice.

## Description

Product Description North American Rescue's fully functioning Gen 7 C-A-T tourniquet is colored blue to identify it as a training device enabling instructors and trainees hands-on training & tourniquet application practice with a distinct visual means to distinguish training devices from personal/operational life-saving devices. The CAT 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 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. The innovations in the CAT are protected by U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253. Manufacturer Contact Information 888-689-6277

Review: This is Quality - I was introduced to the North American Rescue series of products when I took my first "stop the bleed" training class years ago. I've continued to renew and update that training and North American Rescue still proves to be a solid brand among professionals. Basically, we use the cheap knock-offs for training and you can see a dramatic difference between those and the well made, sturdy tourniquets that North American Rescue puts out. The choice is very clear. The reality is, to effectively use a tourniquet when seconds count, you need to practice, practice, practice. Once you get the hang of it and set it up appropriately, it's easy to use and highly effective. Do not cheap out on your IFAK. I literally had one of the knock-offs snap during training (after only a few applications). It's worth the money to buy quality.
Review: Best Tourniquet. - This is the only tourniquet (TQ) besides 1 other brand I’d trust my life with & CAT Tourniquets are the best & have been around for a while. Definitely have earned their reputation which is respectable. I carry one for work & travel. I bought the bright orange one so it stands out no matter what & to claim that it is mine. DO NOT BUY KNOCK OFF TOURNIQUETS!!! They’re good for training usage but not for real emergencies. Use what you have but spend the money on something that is reliable. Load it correctly & administer it properly! Also never use it to train with, it wears out the fibers & loosens up over time! Good bright color, durable, fits on different size people, functions flawlessly, best value for the money, good size, & can carry it wherever with easy of mind. Highly highly highly recommend this!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is different between this device and an actual CAT that makes it a training device only?**
A: I don't believe there is any difference. I can pass on what was told to me in various courses. "The idea behind the different color is so you don't constantly use ones in training that will be used in actual emergencies." The concern is that one used in training over and over may be stressed and may not actually hold up as well when needed ( plastic buckel and Velcro).  The colors do have meaning though. Black= tactical, red/orange= Fire/rescue, blue= training.

**Q: I have a Gen 4 Cat tourniquet. Is it ok to train with this trainer?**
A: Hi if you are teaching different groups then i would suggest getting the gen 7 has these are the ones in current use

**Q: I know it is says the blue is for training but can I use this as a field TQ and not for training ???**
A: Yes, the Blue CAT is fine to use in the field...This fully functioning Gen 7 C-A-T® tourniquet is colored blue to identify it as a training device enabling instructors and trainees hands-on training & tourniquet application practice with a distinct visual means to distinguish training devices from personal/operational life-saving devices.

**Q: The list description states gen 7, but the picture shows and older version.  is this an actual gen 7 cat?  thanks.**
A: Yes all the CAT tourniquets we stock are 2016 GEN 7, its just difficult to get good up to date imagery

*by M***I on December 11, 2025*

The most trusted tourniquet. Do not skimp on this lifesaving piece of equipment. This item is worth the cost. Put at least one in each first aid kit you have along with a sharpie to write the time you use it on the band.
