Product Description

✔ Engineered for playground toughness
When it comes to outdoor basketball, your backboard needs to handle everything from aggressive dunks to unpredictable weather. The Gared 35” x 54” Durable Fan-Shape Marked Steel Basketball Backboard 1245T is purpose-built to deliver rock-solid strength in any environment. Whether you’re outfitting a community park, rec center, or school playground, this steel backboard provides long-term reliability and minimal maintenance.

✔ Durable 12-gauge steel shell
Constructed from 12-gauge steel, the 1245T stands up to the harshest conditions without warping, bending, or cracking. Its white powder-coated finish resists rust and corrosion, making it ideal for year-round outdoor play. An orange shooting target is applied to help players with aim and accuracy.

✔ Reinforced structure for heavy use
Designed with integral steel reinforcement and a back-mounted steel channel, this backboard offers enhanced strength and rigidity. The reinforced mounting points include two safety holes that reduce vibration and wear from aggressive play. This helps extend the life of your equipment, especially in high-traffic or youth-oriented courts.

✔ Classic fan-shape, space-efficient design
The fan-shape backboard not only offers a clean and traditional look but also fits well in tighter court spaces. It's a popular choice for recreational courts that need performance without the bulk of a full rectangular board. Despite its compact size, the 1245T delivers consistent rebounds and is highly responsive during gameplay.

✔ Quick mounting with direct-install slots
The Gared 1245T features 20” x 35” mounting centers with integral keyhole slots, allowing for direct mounting to compatible gooseneck or straight-arm posts. This simplifies installation and enables goal replacement without removing the entire backboard—saving you both time and effort. Recommended rims for use with this model include Gared’s 8550, 5500, 8800, and more.

✔ Versatile use for all levels
Designed for NRSA-level, youth, and recreational play, this fan-shaped steel backboard can be used indoors or outdoors, offering complete flexibility. Its rugged build makes it a top choice for facilities looking for reliable and safe performance that won’t crack under pressure.
