Suggestions how to use this Suspension Kit
This kit can be used indoors in buildings up to 80' or if you want to use your cage outdoors see instructions below.
First you need to choose the pole size and type, for a 70' cage we suggest 4" galvanized or painted steel pipe or 8" x 8" treated wood or 8"+ telephone type pole, the only problem with using wood is that it will bend over time from the weight of the cage.
After the cement has cured you are ready to attach the suspension kit cables. You will need to purchase the appropriate eye bolts for your application. Since there are so many different ways that the suspension kit can be used we do not supply the eye bolts, you will need eye bolts that are about 2" longer than what you are attaching the eye bolts to. Below are a few guidelines.
4" steel poles you will need 3/8" diameter x 6" or longer eye bolts.
6 x 6 Wood posts you will need 1/2" x 8" or longer eye bolts.
12" Wall or beam in a building you will need 5/8" x 14" long eye bolts.
Cut and crimp eye's in cables
Once the suspension kit is installed you are ready to hang the batting cage net in place. Our suspension kit comes with complete instructions.
