Buckingham Blood Stopper Kit (Green)

The Buckingham Blood Stopper Kit is a compact bleeding control pouch built to ride on a saddle or belt where you can reach it fast. Chainsaw cuts bleed hard and quickly, and having the supplies on your body instead of in the truck can save critical minutes.

Why carry it on your body

A chainsaw cut to the leg or arm can bleed fast. If the only kit is in the truck cab, a climber in the tree or a groundie at the back of a lot loses minutes getting to it. A blood stopper kit on the saddle or belt keeps the supplies where they are needed.

Check the listing for the exact contents of the kit you buy and add items your crew trains with, such as a tourniquet, if they are not included. Browse our first aid section for refills and larger kits.

The green color makes it easy to tell apart from other saddle pouches, which matters when someone else has to grab it from you in a hurry. Talk through where everyone on the crew keeps their kit so nobody has to search.

Training and upkeep

Supplies only help if people know how to use them. Get the crew trained in first aid and bleeding control, and practice getting the kit open with gloves on.

Check the pouch regularly, replace anything used or expired, and keep it dry. Follow your employer's emergency plan and call emergency services for any serious injury.

Keep a matching kit in the truck and chipper so the ground crew has one close by too.
