Frame:
The base of the frame shall consist of structural steel tubing, comprising of 100X80X5mm,square tubing, and formed sheet metal parts welded together to form a rectangle. The base weldment supports 2 structural steel columns consisting of 100x60x5mm, 40x40x5mm steel tubes welded together. The columns are supported on hinges with Ø40mm shaft at bearing ends on the base. On the columns is supported the overhang beam of 125x125x5mm tube holding the backboard. The overhang beam shall have an extension of 3200mm" from the front base pad to the front of the backboard glass. The unit will come preassembled with 600kg. of ballast weight.
Wheels:
The front shall be provided with 2 heavy-duty swivel casters with one 150mm nylon wheel on each side rated at 500kg. for each wheel. The rear of the base shall have two150mm nylon wheels each side rated at 500kg. for each wheel.
Anchors:
Each unit shall come equipped with two heavy-duty screw & pads these can be lowered manually to jam the movement of the base, these also can be used for height adjustment of the assembly.
Folding:
The folding mechanism will be available in two different options:- 1) high power hydraulic cylinder with manual cranking, taking only minutes to raise and lower. 2) Spring operated, with five high tension hardened steel springs . Making it easy for lowering and raising the board. The unit shall come with a positive lock at the 8', 9', and 10' playing positions and can be adjusted to meet several heights in between.
Padding:
All front padding shall be a minimum of 5.5" thick foam .All base side padding shall be a minimum of 3" thick foam. Standard padding color shall be Blue. Padding is available in selective colors and is removable. Optional printed on the cover for, Name of the team or federation.

| Fact Finding |
|
| |
|
 |
Toughened glass is approximately 4 times heavier than acrylic. This adds mass to the system and improves the rebound response off of the backboard. Secondly, toughened glass is harder than acrylic. This creates a much more rigid surface and eliminates the drumhead effect that deadens rebounds on acrylic boards. Also, much like your car windshield, the hard tempered glass will resist scratching and remain clear. Acrylic will scuff and become cloudy over time. |
