Stroud SS42014801 Comp Eliminator Large Spring Launcher Chute System Black Chute SS42014801

Stroud Drag Chutes

Stroud Safety is the leader in the non-rigid aerodynamic decelerator field (i .e. drag chutes), these chutes were designed from the start to be user friendly. Stroud Safety has over 40 years experience in parachute design and manufacture, after much exhaustive testing and refinement, the Stroud system was developed. The Stroud drag Chute is designed to open very reliably and softly, pull straight, stop sooner and pack very easily by one person in 4 or 5 minutes. The Stroud system does not pull the car off the ground, it pulls low and straight back. With its special deployment system, this chute will open much softer and much more reliably, stopping your car in much less distance than conventional chutes.

Stroud Launcher System

Stroud parachute launchers are the most advanced parachute deployment system on the market. available in either mechanical or pneumatic styles, the chute launcher completely does away with pilot chutes and their inherent problems. Patented by Stroud Safety, the chute launcher was over 8 years in development. the chute launcher can be used from the slowest bracket car to top Fuel cars. it is especially effective on the 1/8 mile courses, as it is not speed dependent like a pilot chute system. the mechanical system is spring deployed using a regular pull handle. it is ideal for cars that do not have an onboard air system. For those cars that have onboard air, or wish to, then the Stroud pneumatic chute launcher is ideal! it is lighter and easier to use than the spring launcher. Both systems work equally well and the parachute does not know the difference. if weight is a problem, then the new carbon fibre air launcher is for you . it weighs less than a standard Stroud chute with a pilot chute! all Stroud chute launchers come complete with all required mounting and operational equipment. remember, the Stroud parachute launchers work ONLY with Stroud chutes. Using other type chutes is VERY dangerous!
