Product Overview
The Douglas Indoor Batting Tunnel Tensioning Kit is designed for facilities that need an indoor batting tunnel but cannot install or leave up overhead cables, permanent posts, or automated drop-down frames. It is well suited to multi-purpose spaces such as gymnasiums, cafeterias, or pole buildings because it sets up, tears down, and stores away in minutes, leaving the space free of overhead obstructions.
The net is hung wall-to-wall on each end using three cam lock pulley systems, allowing quick setup and takedown simply by hooking or unhooking the spring link clips from the net. The complete kit includes all hardware needed: 6 eyebolts, 6 8 mm spring link clips, 6 3/8 in. spring link clips, 6 cables at 15 ft. long, 3 pieces of 50 ft. high strength braided hoisting rope at 3/8 in., 3 cam lock pulley systems, and 3 swivel clamps.
The kit weighs 30.000 lbs and includes installation instructions, cut sheets, and CAD drawings for reference. Note that batting tunnel nets are sold separately from this tensioning kit.
