SWANSBORO, N.C. – April 11, 2021 – On a daily basis the most important piece of gear an individual would need is an Individual First Aid Kit (IFAK). Hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts, extreme sport athletes, first responders and military personnel can all benefit from life-saving equipment being readily available at a moments notice. IFAK’s can accommodate a multitude of items to save a person’s life. Some of the main essential items that you can carry are:

• Adhesive tape
• Bandage kit
• Nasopharyngeal airway kit
• Trauma shears
• Gloves
• Tourniquet
• Chem lights
• Combat gauze
• Pressure dressing
• Vented chest seal
• Ibuprofen
• Burn dressing

High Speed Gear® offers its ReFlex™ product line that was designed with direct input from active-duty medical personnel and constructed around the medical supplies included in the U.S. Army-issued IFAK. The two-piece system allows you to carry previous medical supplies or other essential items to optimize versatility depending on the field of work that you may be in. The High Abrasion-Resistant Neoprene Kevlar® handles were designed for users to be able to easily find, grab and access the contents of the ReFlex™ IFAK System as quickly as possible.

“We know and understand the importance of preventive measures that users take by carrying organized medical gear.” said Allison Mitchum, HSGI® Director of Sales & Marketing. “It makes us proud to see all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces utilizing our ReFlex IFAK System in the field.”

Since the release of the ReFlex™, High Speed Gear® has also created alternatives for people to be able to use, such as the ReFlex™ Vehicle Mount and the ReFlex™ Leg Rig for users to be able to carry comfortably, no matter their preference.
