EDC Trauma Kit FAQ

What comes in the EDC Trauma Kit?

Your choice of tourniquet (CAT Gen 7 or SOF Tourniquet Gen 5) in the side loops, mini trauma shears, plus a vacuum-sealed insert with hemostatic gauze (QuikClot Bleeding Control Dressing), a pair of Hyfin Vent Compact chest seals, a mini compression bandage, and nitrile gloves, in a 500D nylon pouch with a red cross identifier patch.

Does it include a tourniquet?

Yes. Every EDC Kit ships with the tourniquet you select above, carried ready in the left-side elastic loops.

CAT Gen 7 or SOF-T Gen 5: which should I pick?

Both are proven, widely fielded tourniquets. Pick the one you train with the most.

How small is it really?

4.5 inches tall, 3.25 inches wide, 1.25 inches deep, and 3 ounces before the tourniquet and shears. It sits on a duty belt or in a bag pocket without getting in the way.

How do I mount it?

The Hypalon back panel runs the included MALICE Clips for MOLLE, or slides onto belts up to 2 inches wide. The right-side accessory webbing takes a clothes-cutting hook or other small tools.

How is it different from the D.A.R.K. and the Slim?

The EDC is the bleeding-control essentials in the smallest package. The D.A.R.K. and D.A.R.K. Slim carry a fuller loadout with the tourniquet included. If you want the lightest kit you will actually carry every day, this is it.

Can I restock the kit after it is used?

Yes. The EDC Refill insert puts the pouch right back into service. And under our Kit for Life Guarantee, components used to save a life are replaced free: email info@darkangelmedical.com with your story.

Do the contents expire?

Sterile components such as gauze and chest seals carry expiration dates printed on their packaging. Check your kit once a year and replace anything past date so it is always ready. Refill inserts make the swap simple.
