The Cybertech Mechanical Advantage Tourniquet (MAT) proven to be the fastest, easiest to use and most effective 1-hand tourniquet in military medic training tests
The MAT is the only tourniquet that meets all 12 of the DoD's functional and performance criteria for 1-handed tourniquets
Typical 1-hand application and full occlusion is achieved in under 10 seconds
MATs have been tested in extreme and adverse conditions (where velcro-based tourniquets will not work) including: mud and grime submersion, water submersion, sand submersion, oil and sand submersion, extreme cold and ice-encrustment, and high-velocity, hard surface (concrete) impact
MATs are constructed of the highest-quality and durable materials included DuPont Acetel and Nylon 66 -- to withstand combat-proven impact and extreme temperature ranges (-40º to 200+ºF)
MATs repeatedly tested to survive 330 lb-ft pull force before component deflection (MATs survived tests with no product or component failure and were reusable with full function)
MATs have been repeatedly tested to demonstrated 145 ft-lb compression power generation (approx 3X+ that typically required for blood flow occlusion)
MATs have been repeatedly tested to demonstrated 380-503 ft-lb of tensile strength (approx. 9X - 12X typically required for blood flow occlusion)
(All strength and power tests were conducted 1/05-2/05 by Stork Materials Testing and Inspection, accredited A2LA to ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 9002 and NADCAP lab.)
