SPACESAVER - Military Parachute Storage

SPACESAVER – Military Parachute Storage

A military parachute rigger’s primary goal is to be certain about the safety and security of the hundreds of personnel chutes they pack and store on a daily basis—and by extension, the lives of the soldiers they protect. In fact, it’s part of the Army Quartermaster Rigger’s Pledge: “I will be sure always.” To assist with this priority, Spacesaver has engineered two durable and user-friendly products for optimal military parachute storage—the Universal Storage Container (USC) and Parachute Rack storage system.

Available in two sizes: standard (up to 40 T-11 parachutes) and large (up to 64 T-11 parachutes)

Parachute Rack Storage System

The Military Parachute Rack storage system provides breathable storage without taking up valuable floor space. These rugged, all steel racks feature infinite possibilities for customization depending on the application, and can be combined with a Spacesaver mobilized storage system, such as Eclipse or ActivRAC. Standard features include:

Adjustable cantilever arms to accommodate different size bags for changing needs
Infinitely adjustable horizontally, and adjustable on 6” increments vertically
Cantilever arms are securely held in place by a thumb screw eliminating the need to use tools
All materials used in the fabrication of the Parachute Rack are “non-reactive” preventing degradation of the stored materials
All corners are rounded and all exposed edges are meticulously deburred to prevent snagging or puncturing of stored materials
