Douglas® Baseball & Softball MAX Batting Cage Frame

Description

The Douglas® MAX Batting Tunnel Frame is the strongest professional style frame on the market. This unique design allows the frame poles to be set for any batting tunnel cage size. The MAX batting tunnel has a robust tension cable support system and only requires corner poles; no center or side support poles are needed to keep the net taught across the length of the tunnel.

Fewer poles mean less interference and ball ricocheting during practice. The double frame system is installed with a shared-pole multiple cage design setup. This shared pole design can be set up as a triple, quadruple, or custom layout.

FRAME

The frame consists of massive 16′ direct bury, heavy-duty steel poles that are 8-5/8″ OD with a 0.322″ wall thickness. The poles are coated with a durable black powder coat finish for maximum protection and weather resistance. They are installed 4′ deep, allowing a maximum installed net height of 11’6″. Welded steel tabs are placed at the top of each pole to secure the net cable tensioning system. Frame poles are installed at the desired tunnel net width and at least 5′ longer for the length.

HARDWARE

The tension cable support system consists of 1/4” galvanized aircraft cable with a 6,100 lb. break strength. Three tension cables are ran the length of the tunnel to support the net. All net-to-cable connections are constructed from long lasting steel. All of the necessary hardware components including quick links, turnbuckles, cable clamps and carabiner clips are provided. Batting tunnel nets are sold separately – choose the size that suits your needs best.
