Z-Fold QuikClot Combat Gauze

Rapid Hemorrhage Control When Seconds Count

Z-Fold QuikClot Combat Gauze is engineered for responders who face severe bleeding, including arterial and venous wounds. The dressing promotes clotting within minutes, allowing medics, tactical operators, and EMS crews to control hemorrhage efficiently and confidently. The familiar gauze placement technique means training time is minimal, and the gauze conforms to irregular and penetrating wounds for effective wound packing. Compact packaging and a lightweight profile make this gauze ideal for individual first aid kits, patrol medics, and casualty care bags where immediate, reliable hemostasis is essential to save time and lives in austere or high stress environments.

Z-Fold Design and Fast Access Features

The Z-fold format speeds deployment, letting a responder pull successive layers without fumbling or re packing, and eight tear points enable quicker, controlled application in urgent situations. The dressing combines surgical style gauze with a proprietary inorganic material that supports clot formation, yet remains inert and non allergenic. Because the product produces no heat, it is comfortable to apply and poses no thermal risk to tissue. At four yards long and three inches wide, the gauze provides ample length for packing and pressure and is easily removed once effective clotting has occurred.

Built for Durability with Long Shelf Stability

This combat gauze is packaged to remain compact and serviceable during storage and transport, with a five year shelf life that reduces turnover and logistical burden. The material used is stable and non reactive, offering consistent performance over time without heat generation during use. Lightweight at 0.8 ounces, and packaged in a small footprint, it integrates easily into trauma kits and medical caches without adding bulk. The inert composition minimizes allergic reaction risk, making it suitable for broad user groups from civilian first responders to military medical personnel operating in demanding conditions.

Practical Use Across Missions and Environments

Z-Fold QuikClot Combat Gauze fits a wide range of scenarios, from tactical operations to civilian mass casualty incidents. It is effective for packing deep wounds, controlling junctional bleeding, and supplementing tourniquets where direct wound packing is needed. The easy to use placement technique and compact size make it appropriate for individual first aid kits, vehicle trauma kits, and hospital emergency departments that need a fast acting dressing for acute bleeding. Its heat free chemistry and simple removal after clot formation make it suitable for prolonged care environments as well as rapid evacuation settings.
