The Shark Spike Advanced Spike Strip by Shark Robotics is a next-generation remote-controlled vehicle immobilization system designed for law enforcement, border security, military checkpoints, critical infrastructure protection, and high-security intervention operations. Engineered for rapid deployment and operator safety, the Shark Spike enables security personnel to remotely stop unauthorized or hostile vehicles while maintaining safe standoff distances from potential threats.
Developed in collaboration with security and customs enforcement professionals, the Shark Spike combines rugged construction, high-speed deployment capability, and adaptable road coverage in a compact and highly durable platform. The system can deploy its spike barrier in just 2.5 seconds, enabling immediate response during vehicle pursuits, checkpoint breaches, perimeter intrusions, or emergency interception scenarios.
The remotely operated spike strip provides adjustable deployment widths ranging from 2 to 4.2 meters, allowing it to adapt to narrow lanes, urban roads, checkpoints, industrial facilities, or wide roadway interception zones. Operators can safely deploy and retract the system from distances of up to 300 meters using line-of-sight remote control technology, significantly reducing exposure to dangerous encounters during vehicle interdiction operations.
Constructed with a rugged stainless-steel chassis and aeronautical-grade spikes, the Shark Spike is designed for reliable operation in demanding outdoor environments. The IP55-rated system resists dust, water spray, and harsh weather conditions while maintaining operational capability in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +60°C. The integrated lithium-ion battery system delivers up to 400 deployment cycles per charge and supports rapid battery replacement in less than one minute for continuous field readiness.
Its modular operational design includes optional visual warning beacons, wired pedal deployment controls, spare spike kits, fixed power supply systems, and rapid maintenance tools. The Shark Spike is suitable for both mobile tactical operations and permanent security checkpoint installations.
Today, the Shark Spike platform is deployed for police interception missions, border security operations, anti-ramming protection, military access control, DUI checkpoints, sensitive site protection, and critical infrastructure security worldwide.
