Snakestaff Systems ETQ Gen 2 Standard: Your Compact Everyday Carry Tourniquet.

First responders, tactical professionals, law enforcement, and prepared civilians, take charge: the Snakestaff Systems ETQ Gen 2 Standard Tourniquet is your ultimate everyday carry (EDC) solution for stopping life-threatening bleeds in any emergency!

Engineered with cutting-edge, patent-pending innovations, this compact, lightweight tourniquet is 35% smaller than industry standards, making it the smallest windlass tourniquet on the market.

From urban streets to wilderness trails, the ETQ Gen 2 Standard delivers unmatched portability and performance when every second counts.

Game-Changing Gen 2 Features

The ETQ Gen 2 Standard introduces three patent-pending innovations for superior performance:

Power Curve™ Slot: A curved slot distributes pressure evenly across the band, reducing tissue damage risk compared to straight-slot tourniquets that pinch edges. This ensures safer, more effective hemorrhage control.
Tri-Grip Windlass™: A flat-profile windlass with three surfaces per side offers unmatched grip and mechanical leverage, even with bloody or wet hands, making one-handed application a breeze.
Webbing-Backed Band: Reinforced webbing prevents folding or sticking, speeding up the lasso-and-thread process under stress.

Additional upgrades include a larger carabiner loop for faster windlass stowing, a wire gate lock for secure transport, and on-tourniquet instructions with a QR code linking to training videos—ideal for bystanders or quick refreshers. The Gen 2 also eliminates the Gen 1 chemlight to avoid accidental activation, ensuring reliability during carry.

Next-Level Design for Real-World Heroes

Built on feedback from US Military, Special Forces, Civilian EMS, Law Enforcement, and EDC enthusiasts, the ETQ Gen 2 Standard is a significant upgrade over its proven Gen 1 predecessor, which saved dozens of lives. This 1-inch-wide, 37.5-inch-long tourniquet is crafted for adults, children, and K9s, securing limbs as small as 1 inch in diameter. Its Mil-Spec 4088 webbing and UV-rated polymer ensure durability in extreme conditions, while the non-absorbent design thrives in maritime ops or wet environments. Conceal it in pockets, multi-tool pouches, or pistol mag carriers for low-visibility carry—perfect for first responders, medics, or civilians prepared for the unexpected.

Simple, Rapid Application

Deploy the ETQ Gen 2 Standard in seconds:

Lasso: Loop the band around the limb, threading it through the Power Curve slot.
Tighten: Pull the band tight to start compression.
Twist: Rotate the Tri-Grip windlass to increase pressure until bleeding stops.
Secure: Lock the windlass in the carabiner loop with the wire gate.
Monitor: Check and adjust as needed.

This intuitive process empowers EMS, police, military, or civilians to act fast, with printed instructions ensuring clarity under pressure. Pair it with a Stop the Bleed® course and the ETQ Gen 2 Blue Trainer for practice without wear on your duty gear.

Proven Durability, Trusted Performance

Tested at a Level 5 trauma unit with Doppler and ultrasound, the ETQ Gen 2 Standard cuts off blood flow effectively, even on small limbs. Its torture-tested durability withstands extreme weather, and a 6,500-pound vehicle hit, as shown in Snakestaff’s Torture Test video. While not yet CoTCCC-reviewed due to paused evaluations, it’s designed to meet TCCC standards and is undergoing independent clinical trials for validation.

Why Choose the ETQ Gen 2 Standard?

At just 1 inch wide and 35% smaller than traditional tourniquets, the ETQ Gen 2 Standard redefines EDC trauma care. Its gray color scheme blends seamlessly into civilian settings, avoiding tactical scrutiny at checkpoints, making it ideal for hikers, school staff, or daily carriers. The Snakeskin ETQ Sleeve (sold separately) enhances pocket carry by preventing snags. While some prefer wider tourniquets, testing shows 1-inch bands match the constriction of leading models like CAT, proving size doesn’t compromise strength.
