Kit de reabastecimiento IFAK suplementario (SIRK™)

What is the difference between the SIRK Gen 1 and SIRK Gen 2?

The SIRK Gen 2 includes two C-A-T® tourniquets (vs. one in Gen 1), a HyFin® Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack (vs. single seal in Gen 1), a Fox Eyeshield with garter, a Model 7 rescue hook, mini duct tape, a permanent marker, and a combat casualty card — making it a more complete resupply kit. The Gen 1 includes a polycarbonate eye shield and 6-inch ETD™ (vs. 4-inch in Gen 2). Both are vacuum-sealed and carry a C-A-T®, hemostatic gauze, NPA, and compressed gauze.

Is ChitoGauze® PRO different from standard ChitoGauze®?

Yes. ChitoGauze® PRO contains a higher concentration of chitosan compared to standard ChitoGauze®, providing enhanced hemostatic performance in laboratory and field testing. Both are CoTCCC-recommended chitosan-based hemostatic dressings. ChitoGauze® PRO is recommended for higher-volume bleeding scenarios where maximum hemostatic performance is required.

Can the SIRK Gen 1 resupply any standard military IFAK?

Yes. The SIRK Gen 1's H 7 × W 5 × D 2 in. dimensions and vacuum packaging allow it to fit inside most standard military IFAK pouches (EAGLE IFAK, RIG Series, etc.) or a large BDU cargo pocket. The contents can also be removed from the vacuum seal and distributed individually to resupply a depleted kit or multiple partially-depleted kits.

Does the SIRK Gen 1 include an eye shield?

Yes. The SIRK Gen 1 includes a polycarbonate eye shield for blast or fragment eye injury protection. This item is carried forward from military TCCC doctrine and helps address ocular injuries that are common in blast and fragmentation casualties.

Does the SIRK Gen 1 include a 9-line MEDEVAC card?

Yes. The SIRK Gen 1 includes a Product Label/Contents Card with a 9-line MEDEVAC form printed on the back. The 9-line MEDEVAC report is the standard military request format for medical evacuation, including location, casualties, equipment needed, and security information. This card is a compact documentation tool for field use.

Does the SIRK include CoTCCC-recommended items?

Yes. The SIRK is designed to resupply an IFAK with CoTCCC-recommended components. Verify current contents in the product listing.

What training is required to use a resupplied IFAK?

The same training required for the original IFAK loadout applies. Resupplying the kit does not change skill requirements.

What components are included in the SIRK?

Verify the current contents list in the product listing. The SIRK typically includes tourniquet, gauze, chest seal, ARS, and other CoTCCC-recommended consumables.

What is the NSN or procurement path for the SIRK?

Available through MED-TAC International. DoD procurement can contact NAR for current NSN and GSA contract vehicle information.

Is the SIRK the same as the SIRK Gen 2?

No. The SIRK Gen 2 reflects updated CoTCCC component specifications. For current kit resupply, the SIRK Gen 2 is typically the appropriate choice.
