Product Overview
The Tyrant III Basketball System's vertical pole is constructed of 6 5/8ā O.D. Schedule 40 galvanized tubing, designed for a 48ā bury into the ground. It features a 72ā setback from the post to the backboard, with a telescoping attachment allowing for up to 78ā extension. Two 1ā round tubular braces support the top corners of the backboard and connect directly to the pole, which is engineered for the rim to mount directly through the backboard into the horizontal extension to eliminate backboard stress.
An H-Frame structure made of 1 ½ā square x 11 gauge tubing is provided, standing 36ā tall. This H-Frame includes mounting slots for industry standard 20āx35ā mounting and features a faceplate no less than 3/16ā thick, ensuring rim bolts pass through the backboard and into the H-Frame to prevent breakage. The backboard itself is 36āx 54ā rectangular acrylic, 1/2ā thick, framed with a 1/8ā thick anodized aluminum framework. It also has a bright white 2ā border and an official shooter's square screened on the backside to eliminate wear.
The standard rim is a flexible, institutional quality type designed to absorb player contact stress, with spring action provided by a heavy-duty compression wire spring. All structural components are built of no less than 3/16ā steel, and the rim features an official 5/8ā diameter high strength steel ring supported by a 3/16ā brace covering 60% of the ring. It is punched to accommodate either a 3āx 4ā or 5āx 5ā hole pattern and has an orange powdercoated finish. The entire system has an approximate weight of 480#, and the pole, backboard, and standard rim are backed by a Lifetime Unconditional Warranty.
