Army's New Velcro Touniquet







Army's New Velcro Touniquet

Army's New Velcro Touniquet 03/25/2005 11:10 AM

new_tourn.jpgLately I've become more interested in the simple feats of engineering that are enacted all around us, an amplification of an existing preoccupation I can trace back to dual-hinge bed door of the Honda Ridgeline. I mean, software is great and all, but if you fail to get excited by a well-executed hinge, you're missing out. This new tourniquet designed by North American Rescue Products gave me the same feeling, especially when I learned that the nylon, plastic, and Velcro strip can be cinched to life-saving tightness with just one hand. I guess that's why we're sending 172,000 of them to our kids in Iraq and Afghanistan.
