TacMed’s Snake Bite Bandage is an essential tool for anyone venturing into snake-prone areas. Designed with built-in pressure indicators, it ensures the correct compression for immobilizing venom and reducing its spread. Compact and easy to carry, this bandage is trusted by outdoor enthusiasts, hikers, and rural workers.

This bandage was purposely designed for the Pressure Immobilisation Technique (PIT), which is used for the treatment of all Australian Snake and Funnel Webbed Spider bites, Blue Ringed Octopus and Cone Shell sting.
