Product Overview
The VersiChamp III Basketball System features the FT1992 VersiStrut wall structure, a 100% fully welded bracket made of .25" thick steel finished in black powder coat paint, secured to (3) 2"x8" Dense Southern Yellow Pine wallboards with routed edges and a clear coat sealant, supported by two turnbuckles at roughly a 45 degree angle.
Adjustable extension arms made of 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" tubing allow a minimum 18" extension from post to backboard at 10' playing height, with rim height adjustable in six-inch increments from 10' down to 7 1/2' using a pole or broom handle; a spring in the extension assembly counteracts the backboard and rim weight for easy one-person adjustment.
The backboard is 1/2" thick acrylic with bright white screening and clear anodized aluminum "L" type extrusion framework, measuring approximately 54" wide by 36" high. The standard rim is a flexible, institutional-quality rim with a 5/8" diameter high strength steel ring, 3/16" steel brace supporting 60% of the ring, and an orange powder coated finish. The overall system weighs approximately 305# and the strut, backboard, and standard rim are covered by a Lifetime Limited Warranty.
