Commercial Professional Batting Cage Nets, Custom Sizes and Features
For many years Gourock has been the professional and commercial source for high-end custom batting cage netting enclosures, for both full-time outdoor and indoor training facilities and organizations. Built from very high quality DuPont® type 66-728 twisted-knotted nylon netting, 100% fabricated in the USA, Gourock.com can supply your professional and commercial establishment with customized batting cage nets and netting enclosures that are fabricated to your own preferred sizing and with additional custom features or additions that you may need. The nylon batting cage nets that we produce are installed at baseball and softball training facilities, university and scholastic baseball and softball facilities, professional baseball stadiums, commercial sports training and batting cage installations, and many other high-abrasion and high-traffic sports facilities that require netting.
For commercial baseball and softball batting cage netting and impact netting installations, the recommended twine and mesh selections are the #36 X 1-3/4″ knotted nylon, and the thicker #72 X 1-3/4″ knotted nylon. Both are the DuPont® material, black in coloring, and have high tensile strength ratings and abrasion resistance. The #36 nylon is a 2.5mm twine thickness with a 381 lb. tensile rating (breaking strength per twine). The heavier option is the #72 with the 3.5mm twine thickness and 740 lb. tensile rating. At Gourock.com you have the option to have batting cage netting enclosures produced to any dimensions that you need – and the Online Netting Calculator allows you to enter the height, width, and length preferred:
Many sports training facilities also have more customized requirements as well, in addition to needing specific dimensions and sizes. For instance, many batting cage nets that are being installed for team training or commercial uses need to incorporate entrance doors located at particular areas of the netting. Other times, the netting design is built with angles, tapers, or notches in-order to correctly fit specific spaces, rooflines, walls, or framing design details. Other popular custom design features include additional ceiling line ropes and additions of separate divider panel nets.
Gourock supplies custom nylon netting productions that are built per-order, from 100% Made in the USA materials and craftsmanship. Feel free to contact Gourock.com with requests on netting production availability and we can take a look at your request and quote some custom netting options for you.
