Product Overview
PVB-13U covers the uprights and winch portion of Jaypro's 3.5 in. multi-purpose adjustable net system. The posts are one piece extruded aluminum with a high tensile strength wall of 0.203 in. and a 3.50 in. outside diameter, finished with a durable anodized coating so they hold up to repeated set-up and storage.
Net height is set with high quality top and bottom sliding collars that are infinitely adjustable, covering the required heights for badminton, tennis and volleyball. Each upright weighs no more than 40 lbs and rides on a molded composite footing designed to protect finished flooring while the posts are being moved, stored and installed.
The included PVBWINCH uses an internal worm gear with a 10:1 turn ratio to eliminate snap back, fully enclosed in a welded steel cover and fitted with a folding handle. It sits on the lower section of the upright, outside the court, for player safety, and the anchor straps adjust to suit varying sleeve installation widths.
Floor sleeves are required and sold separately: aluminum sleeves with a 3.570 in. inside diameter and 10 in. depth, with cover plates available in brass and chrome. Jaypro sells the full package - uprights and winch plus collegiate net (PVBN-3), adjustable antennas (VBA-80) and upright padding (PVB-60P) - as PVB-1350.
