Product Overview
RuffNeck Excel Fixed Height Basketball Goal for Unyielding Performance
The RuffNeck Excel delivers exceptional durability and consistent play, making it an ideal choice for any court where a fixed-height system is preferred. Built around a heavy-duty 4 1/2" O.D. galvanized schedule 40 steel post, this goal is designed to withstand rigorous use and outdoor elements. The post is buried 48 inches below the playing surface, ensuring a stable and permanent installation. With a 48-inch extension from the post to the backboard, players have ample room for aggressive play underneath the rim.
This system features a robust 42"x72" steel backboard, known for its strength and longevity, paired with an Unbreakable Fixed Goal. The direct rim mount design is a critical feature, as it routes the rim's stress directly into the pole system, bypassing the backboard entirely. This significantly reduces wear and tear on the backboard, extending its lifespan. The unique nose-cone backboard mounting design simplifies installation while securely locking the backboard to the post. The RuffNeck Excel is engineered for years of reliable performance and comes backed by a Lifetime Limited Warranty.
