MAT ( Mechanical Advantage Tourniquet)

The Index Project

The Index Project
Copenhagen, Denmark

This improvement to the traditional tourniquet can be applied in stressful situations with little to no training using only one hand, so it can be applied by the victim him/herself. Multiple tests in extreme conditions have proven MAT to be the fastest, most effective, easiest to use and user-preferred of all available tourniquets.
