Small enough to fit in a glovebox or pocket, it gives police, tactical and security teams a discreet way to stop a vehicle safely when a subject may attempt to flee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlaced under a target tyre, the Piranha deflates the tyre in five seconds or less, bringing the vehicle to a slow, controlled stop rather than a sudden blowout. It is built for covert use where a full spike strip or larger deflation system would be impractical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy choose the Piranha?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Piranha is designed for close-quarters and covert operations where speed, concealment and safety matter. Two coated quills disable self-sealing tyres without causing a blowout, while the reusable ABS plastic base and keyed, reloadable cartridge let teams reload in the field and deploy again with minimal downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 3½ inch (8.9 cm) design that fits easily in a glovebox, pocket or patrol bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at just 5.2 oz (147 g) for fast, one-handed placement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeflates tyres in five seconds or less for a safe, controlled stop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo 2 inch (5.1 cm) coated quills disable self-sealing tyres without blowout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReusable ABS plastic base for repeated deployment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeyed cartridge system that ensures correct assembly every time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemovable end caps for quick field reloading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for covert placement under a stationary target vehicle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for authorised professional users only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eExample applications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Piranha is suited to covert and tactical vehicle control operations, including:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSWAT and specialist tactical operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarrant service and drug raids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurveillance and detective work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraffic stops and sobriety (DUI) checkpoints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-risk arrests where a subject may flee by vehicle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSituations requiring a concealed, rapidly deployed deflation device\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the Piranha works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Piranha holds a single replaceable cartridge fitted with two coated quills. When a vehicle drives over the device, the quills penetrate the tyre and stay embedded, releasing air in a slow and predictable way instead of an instant blowout. After deployment, the end caps are removed, a fresh cartridge is fitted, and the base is ready for reuse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReloading and Hit Kits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Piranha is designed to be reloaded rather than replaced. Hit Kits containing replacement cartridges and end caps allow teams to reset the device quickly in the field, keeping units ready for the next deployment and reducing whole-life cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTraining\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraining options are available to support safe, realistic practice without live quills. Training products mirror the size, weight and handling of the operational device, helping teams build familiarity and confidence before live deployment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProfessional use only\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Piranha is intended for authorised professional users only.
