Product Overview
The FoldaMount 68 Advantage is a fully welded wall mount basketball goal featuring 2” square telescoping tubing with 1 ¾” extensions, allowing for a 72”-96” wall-to-backboard distance. The structure is finished with black powder coat paint and can swing left or right via a lockable diagonal telescoping strut. It secures to three 2”x 8” Dense Southern Yellow Pine wallboards, supported by an 800#, 3/16” proof chain with a turnbuckle for tension.
The system includes a 39”x54” fan-shaped backboard made of ½” thick tempered glass, complete with an official white shooter’s square and border. The backboard features an aluminum extrusion frame providing for a 20”x35” fan-shaped mounting and a 5”x5” goal mounting pattern. It meets all NCAA and National Federation of State High School Associations standards, with the glass at the rim mounting location sandwiched between two cushioned steel plates.
The goal design incorporates a 5/8” diameter steel ring with an 18” inside diameter and continuous wire netlock attachment, finished in official orange powder coat. Its backplate components are 3/16” thick steel, punched for 5”x 5” and 5”x4” mounting patterns. A ¼” x 1 ½” steel rim support brace provides continuous support around 50% of the ring. The positive lock breakaway mechanism is factory preset with a single return spring and utilizes a two hardened steel ball/detent mechanism for proper breakaway pressure, ensuring player safety by eliminating pinch points. A white nylon net and mounting hardware are included, and the entire system carries a Lifetime Limited Warranty with an approximate shipping weight of 433#.
