Product Overview
The First Team Slam Eclipse-BP Basketball System features a robust vertical pole constructed of 4" square steel tubing with an 11-gauge wall thickness and a black powder coat finish, designed for in-ground installation via an anchoring system. Its adjustable extension arms, made of dual 2" x 2" tubing, allow the rim height to be adjusted in six-inch increments from 10' down to 7' using a removable pin and adjustment handle, aided by two springs for easy one-person adjustments. The extension provides a minimum 24" clearance from the front of the post to the backboard face.
The system includes a 1/4" thick smoked tempered glass backboard, approximately 60" wide and 36" high, with bright white ceramic markings and a clear anodized aluminum "L" type extrusion framework. The institutional quality rim is a flexible type, featuring an official 5/8" diameter ring and a standard 18" I.D. opening, finished with an orange powder coating. A heavy-duty nylon net is also provided. The rim mounts directly to the extension arm through the backboard to reduce stress. The entire system has an approximate weight of 325# and the pole, backboard, and standard rim are covered by a Lifetime Limited Warranty.
