The High Speed Gear Tourniquet TACO® Pouch is a dedicated tourniquet carrier built to retain most windlass tourniquets on the market. Constructed in the USA and 100% Berry Amendment compliant, it uses the same elastic expansion-and-contraction system found across the entire HSGI TACO® family, snapping open for fast one-handed access and closing securely around the tourniquet when not in use. It mounts via MOLLE (HSGI Clips) and fits any High Speed Gear belt as well as the HSGI Core Plate Carrier.

Who this is for

• Law enforcement and first responders: who need a dedicated, instantly accessible tourniquet mount on a duty belt or plate carrier without digging through an IFAK
• Military and tactical personnel: who require Berry Amendment-compliant gear and a lifetime no-questions-asked warranty on every item in their kit
• Prepared civilians and range shooters: who want to add a CAT or SOFTT-W to a MOLLE-compatible bag, belt, or carrier without committing to a bulky full medical pouch

Compatibility with parent armor and kit

The Tourniquet TACO® mounts to any MOLLE-compatible surface using HSGI Clips, and drops directly onto any High Speed Gear belt platform or the HSGI Core Plate Carrier without modification. It also pairs cleanly as a standalone add-on to a larger IFAK or medical pouch, letting you position the tourniquet at the most accessible point on your kit rather than burying it inside a bag. Medical items are not included.

Function and retention design

Like every pouch in the TACO® elastic series, this carrier relies on banded elastic — not rigid plastic clips or hook-and-loop — to retain the tourniquet under movement and release it under pull. The pouch expands to accept the tourniquet on draw and contracts to hold it without rattling between uses. This design accommodates most windlass-style tourniquets currently available, meaning you are not locked into a single brand or model of TQ.

Construction and compliance

Manufactured in the USA and fully Berry Amendment compliant, the Tourniquet TACO® meets procurement requirements for government, law enforcement, and military contracts. High Speed Gear backs every pouch with a lifetime no-questions-asked warranty. Available in Black, Coyote Brown, LE Blue, OD Green, MultiCam, and MultiCam Black with MOLLE (HSGI Clips) mount.

Specifications

Frequently asked questions

What does this pouch work with?

It works with most windlass-style tourniquets available today, including the CAT and SOFTT-W. For mounting, it attaches to any MOLLE-compatible surface via HSGI Clips and fits all High Speed Gear belt platforms and the HSGI Core Plate Carrier directly.

Does the tourniquet come included?

No. The pouch ships empty — medical items are not included. You supply your own windlass tourniquet of choice.

How does the elastic retention system work?

The banded elastic expands when you press the tourniquet in and contracts to grip it securely. On draw, the elastic releases under pull. No rigid clips or hook-and-loop fasteners are involved, so the pouch works regardless of tourniquet brand or minor dimensional differences between models.

Can I add this to my existing IFAK or medical pouch?

Yes. It mounts independently alongside a larger IFAK or medical pouch, letting you position the tourniquet at the most accessible point on your rig rather than storing it inside a bag where retrieval takes extra steps.

Is this Berry Amendment compliant for government procurement?

Yes. The Tourniquet TACO® is manufactured in the USA and is 100% Berry Amendment compliant, satisfying domestic-source requirements for military, law enforcement, and federal government contracts. HSGI's GSA Cage Code is 3DD68.
