Description

The Revolution in Compact Bleeding Control

The ETQ™ Gen 2 by Snakestaff Systems is a next-generation everyday carry tourniquet engineered with real-world feedback and patent-pending innovations. More than just an upgrade, it’s a breakthrough in how compact tourniquets perform under pressure—when seconds count and failure is not an option.

Whether you're an overlander, first responder, or building a serious go-bag, this is the tourniquet built for those who live prepared.

What’s New in Gen 2

  • Power Curve Technology – Curved slot design evenly distributes pressure, reducing tissue damage vs. traditional straight-slot TQs.

  • Tri-Grip Windlass – Flat grip surfaces improve control and leverage; stronger than aluminum, made from aerospace-grade composite.

  • Windlass Ring (Patent Pending) – Reinforced ring adds torque control and makes tightening significantly easier.

  • Optimized TQ Body & Routing – Minimizes user error by keeping the band straighter under pressure—even if not pre-tightened.

  • Larger Carabiner Opening – Easier windlass stowage, especially after multiple twists.

  • Webbing-Backed Hook & Loop – Resists folding and sticking to itself, allowing faster application under stress.

  • Clear Instructions + QR Code – Printed step-by-step guidance on the TQ + scannable training video.

  • Blue Trainer Available – Dedicated training version sold separately for realistic, repeatable practice.

Why No Chemlight?
Gen 1’s integrated chemlight was removed due to accidental activation during EDC and shipping—Gen 2 improves reliability.

Key Features
  • 🔹 EDC-Optimized Size – 35% smaller than traditional TQs—carry it in a mag pouch, pocket, or IFAK with ease.

  • 🔹 All-Weather Performance – Built from non-absorbent, water-resistant materials ideal for any terrain or condition.

  • 🔹 Wide Compatibility – Effective for adults, children, and K9 units; works on limbs as small as 1".

  • 🔹 Mil-Spec Construction – Built with Mil-Spec 4088 webbing and UV-stable polymer hardware.

  • 🔹 Length: 37.5" | Width: 1"

Designed to Meet & Exceed Standards

While the CoTCCC hasn’t evaluated new tourniquets since 2019, the ETQ™ Gen 2 is engineered to exceed all prior TCCC guidelines and aligns with current Department of Defense working group requirements.

This is the next generation of field and civilian hemorrhage control.
