The D-Clasp design allows the tourniquet to be wrapped around the arm or leg and secured above the wound without sliding it all the way up the limb — critical when seconds count. The high-performance nylon strap tightens to the windlass at a single strong ring point, improving both windlass strength and speed of blood flow occlusion. Secure-grip windlass ends prevent slipping while twisting.

The D-Clasp on this tourniquet allows you to wrap it around the limb at the correct location and secure it without threading it from the foot or hand end. Once positioned, tighten the strap and twist the windlass rod until bleeding stops, then secure the windlass in the locking clip. Note the time of application and do not remove the tourniquet in the field — removal should only be performed by trained medical personnel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this tourniquet be used on both arms and legs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — this windlass tourniquet is designed for extremity use on both upper and lower limbs. For effective occlusion, the limb must be of a diameter that allows the strap to compress sufficiently to stop blood flow. It is not suitable for use on the neck, torso, or junctional (groin\/armpit) wounds — those require different bleeding control devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs formal training required to use this tourniquet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tourniquet includes instructions for proper use, but formal training is strongly recommended. Stop the Bleed® courses (available through the American College of Surgeons and many employers) provide hands-on practice with tourniquet application, wound packing, and pressure dressings. Proper technique — including correct placement, tightness, and windlass locking — significantly improves effectiveness in a real emergency. Untrained users may under-tighten or misplace the tourniquet, reducing effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShould this tourniquet be stored in a first aid kit or carried on the person?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor arborist and outdoor work crews, the ideal placement is both: one tourniquet in the crew’s first aid kit and additional individual tourniquets carried on each person’s person (vest, belt, or pocket) for immediate self-application in the event of a laceration or chainsaw injury. Tourniquets stored only in a kit may not be accessible quickly enough when a crew member is working alone or at height. Consider pairing this tourniquet with the First Aid Only Bleeding Triage Kit (91133) for a complete jobsite bleeding control solution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bartlett Arborist Supply","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49669132517695,"sku":"OHL-91160-001","price":16.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0276\/2057\/3268\/files\/windlass-tourniquet-950.png?v=1790967648","url":"https:\/\/www.bartlettman.com\/products\/windlass-tourniquet","provider":"Bartlett Arborist Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
