Product Overview
The FT60 TuffGuard Recreational Backboard Padding is constructed with a cellular design, featuring a skin with an average minimum thickness of .06” and a minimum pressure rating of 125 psi. This padding is specifically engineered to shed rainwater, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
The padding system is versatile, designed to mount onto all brands and styles of 60” wide rectangular backboards using the included self-drilling screws. It incorporates a molded steel track to enhance the rigidity and strength of the mounting system. The design consists of two “L” shaped padding segments, which are securely joined in the center by molded line-up stubs. For maximum safety, the corners are molded square, eliminating the need for mitering, gluing, or forming during attachment. All accompanying hardware is zinc-plated.
The FT60 TuffGuard padding is available in a variety of colors, with the color being continuous throughout the entire thickness of the padding, not just the skin. It is backed by a 1-Year Limited Warranty and has an approximate shipping weight of 8# per piece.
