Types of Nettings
Mesh Netting
We provide mesh fabric golf hitting nets. We opt for knitted or woven fabric over plastic mesh netting due to its superior durability and flexibility. Mesh is typically composed of a fabric material. The fabric is a synthetic material composed of polyester, nylon, or spandex.
These Materials have Advantages and Disadvantages.
This netting is known for its toughness and long-lasting nature, being made from polyester. You can remain reassured that things won’t quickly decline, even with frequent collisions. Its resistance to heat, wear, and environmental factors makes it ideal for outdoor netting that gets a lot of usage.
Nylon golf hitting nets exhibits resistance to ultraviolet (UV) rays and endures a range of weather conditions. Consequently, it is well-suited for use in the outdoors. This particular facility is often a preferred option for baseball fields and batting cages.
Vinyl netting boasts several desirable qualities, including its durability, ease of cleaning and upkeep, and high visibility. Similar to nylon, it is consistently reliable in ballparks and stadiums, and its appeal lies in its ability to resist dirt and wear appearing quickly.
Knotted vs. Knotless Netting
The mesh fabric golf hitting nets used can be further classified based on whether the netting is knotted, in addition to the type of mesh fabric itself. This netting is either knotted or “bonded” and is the more robust of the two options. One of the strands in our knotted mesh netting has a tensile breaking strength of 216 pounds. It has a robust structure, is unlikely to fracture, and exhibits a high level of stiffness.
For applications requiring baseline and outfield netting, soccer goals, basketball barriers, and aviary netting, knotted fabric netting offers a secure option to protect both spectators and property.
In contrast to knotted netting, the entire product of knotless netting has equal strength, whereas the weakest points of knotted netting are found at the joints. The payoff is that it does not possess the same maximum strength as bonded nets.
A prime illustration is our direct impact golf hitting nets, which does not feature any knots. Ideal for use as a barrier, the product is also suitable for golf cage baffle panels, debris containment, and other applications where frequent impacts from balls or debris are anticipated.
Diamond vs. Square Netting
The shape of the holes is a key characteristic that distinguishes various types of netting. Although it may appear to be a purely superficial distinction, it has a significant impact on the net’s performance.
Square mesh is available with even and tidy hanging, is simple to install, and is typically costlier than diamond netting due to the fact that you require more material to cover the same area.
In contrast, our diamond polyester golf hitting nets appears somewhat loose and unfurled. The most fitting way to describe it would be flexible. It has considerable shock absorption and expands upon collision. In order to achieve a complete, immediate stop in direct impact situations, it should be suspended at a taut angle.
One important thing to note about diamond netting is that it lacks a defined shape when not bordered and hung. Even without borders, square netting retains a uniform shape.
Durability Factors
The lifespan of top golf hitting nets can vary significantly based on the materials used and the unique design of each model. The following is a summary of several commonly utilized alternatives, along with their durability properties.
