Crew Chainsaw Trauma Kit

Our updated Crew Kit upgrades to the Combat Application Tourniquet and replaces the QuikClot with Compressed Gauze.

Designed to be mounted and left attached to the belt of chainsaw chaps; or hooked to an Arborist's saddle,  the Crew Chainsaw Trauma Kit allows you to access the lifesaving components quickly when needed, while not interfering with your cutting activities. Each component is carefully chosen to provide the most effective care while being light weight and minimizing bulk.

Components are contained in Forest Safety Product's exclusive Chainsaw Trauma Pouch with a rapid access strap. Manufactured by Atlas46, weighing only about half of pound, and taking up only 4 inches of belt space its features include:

• Made in the USA
• Safety Orange - There’s no question the purpose of the kit in bright safety orange, differentiating it from other tool pouches that may be on your chaps.
• 1000d Cordura Construction - Easily withstands everything the forest throws at it.
• Atlas46 AIMS mounting system accommodates belts up to 3” and makes it easy to add or remove to belt or gear. 
• Large Metal D-Ring - Easily grabbed even with gloved hands. One pull brings the lifesaving tourniquet to where you can quickly put it to use.
• Elastic opening - keeps out sawdust and debris.
• Attachment point for arborists to connect to their climbing gear.
• Sewn cross designating it as medical supplies.
• Velcro detachable rapid access strap– allows you to pull the contents free of the pouch for easy access if needed.
