Strap is the simplest tourniquet holder on the market — two heavy-duty elastic retention loops and a molded plastic backer that slides behind three rows of MOLLE webbing to hold a SOF-T, C-A-T, or other NATO-style tourniquet in immediate reach. No pouch, no cover, no Velcro to defeat.

The Tourniquet NOW! Strap solves the carry problem without adding a pouch, a cover, or any closure that has to be defeated before the TQ comes free. Two elastic loops hold the device against a hard backer; pull and the tourniquet is in hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strap mounts on three vertical MOLLE fields — common dimensions on plate carrier cummerbunds, chest rig fronts, and war belt panels. It also installs on top of BFG's Trauma Kit NOW! Medium and Large lids, which have purpose-cut openings for it. For LE patrol, military operations, and serious civilian carry, mounting the TQ at the same kit location as the trauma kit keeps the entire bleeding-control response on one hand and one piece of real estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strap also accommodates flex cuffs or similarly-sized items if the operator's load-out calls for that. The simplicity is the feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.125\" × 1\" × 4.75\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstallation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 vertical MOLLE fields\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSOF-T, C-A-T, and similar NATO-style tourniquets; flex cuffs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMolded plastic base, heavy-duty elastic retention loops\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade in USA, Berry Compliant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBFG limited lifetime\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy tacticaledge.com Carries It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarrying a tourniquet you can't reach is the same as not carrying one. Blue Force Gear's TNS solves that problem with the simplest possible design — no closures to defeat, no pouch to fight against the deployment, no failure points. For LE personnel, military operators, and civilians serious about bleeding-control preparedness, it's the right tool for the carry slot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich tourniquets does it hold?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two elastic loops are sized for SOF-T, C-A-T, and similar NATO-style tourniquets. Smaller-sized tourniquets and similar items (flex cuffs) can also fit. The strap is not designed for ratchet-style tourniquets or significantly oversized devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere should I mount it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnywhere with three vertical MOLLE fields available. Common locations: plate carrier cummerbund, chest rig front panel, war belt, or the dedicated cuts on top of BFG's Trauma Kit NOW! Medium or Large lid. Mounting the tourniquet near the trauma kit keeps your entire bleeding-control response in one location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the tourniquet included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The Tourniquet NOW! Strap is a holder. The tourniquet is sold separately. tacticaledge.com carries SOF-T and C-A-T tourniquets — pair the strap with whichever tourniquet your protocol or training calls for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does it differ from the Tourniquet NOW! Pouch?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Strap uses two open elastic loops to hold the TQ against the host platform — fastest deployment, no closure to defeat. The Pouch is a Velcro-closed enclosure that mounts directly to a belt and protects the TQ from snagging or environmental exposure. Choose based on whether speed (Strap) or coverage (Pouch) matters more for your carry environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it interfere with my plate carrier or chest rig?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 0.125-inch profile sits flush against the host platform. The molded plastic backer slides behind the MOLLE webbing — it does not add bulk in front of the kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does Berry Compliant mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Berry Amendment requires that textiles and clothing purchased by the U.S. Department of Defense be sourced and produced entirely within the United States. Berry-compliant products are eligible for procurement by U.S. military units and federal agencies that require domestic sourcing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the warranty cover?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlue Force Gear backs the Tourniquet NOW! Strap with a limited lifetime warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it ship to APO\/FPO addresses?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. tacticaledge.com ships free to all APO and FPO addresses. Tourniquets and tourniquet carry hardware are critical kit for deployed personnel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Force Gear","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":44167593492579,"sku":"37141|Black","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Multicam","offer_id":44167593525347,"sku":"37141|Multicam","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coyote Brown","offer_id":44167593558115,"sku":"37141|Coyote Brown","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/7546\/5827\/files\/37141.jpg?v=1778774722","url":"https:\/\/tacticaledge.com\/products\/blue-force-gear-tourniquet-now-strap","provider":"tacticaledge.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
