Climbing nets can be installed as shown in illustration 1 & illustration 2 or hung from any structurally safe existing framework. The typical pipe installation must be supported by cable or other hanging devices which are strong enough to exceed the maximum load applied to the net at any given time. Installation must be made around or to smooth surfaces to eliminate excessive wear at connecting points
If pursuing the typical pipe installation and after you have met the before mentioned criteria and selected your net, you will need the following materials to fabricate and attach the suspended pipe assembly. ( Because there are so many different ceiling heights, ceiling frameworks, etc., exact hanging hardware must be determined on site. Hardware is available from your dealer or directly from JAMMAR. Pipe can be procured at electrical, plumbing or fence supply houses.
| a) | 5* | or more beam attachments- This must be determined by purchaser and installer in accordance to your ceiling structure type. Permanent forged eyebolts do nicely as do beam clamps for steel structures. Wood or concrete framework require more specific attachment hardware. Consult experienced installation engineer. |
| b) | 1 | length of steel pipe- minimum 1 1/2" steel pipe ( 1.900 O.D. .145 wall thickness) - 2 feet longer than net width. Larger diameter and thicker walled pipe can also be used. Must be purchased locally. |
| c) | 5* | forged eyebolts for attachment hardware on pipe |
| d) | 2 | eyebolts for end of pipe "tie down" |
| e) | 5* | lengths of chain or cable for connection of ceiling hardware to pipe hardware ( lengths determined by ceiling height less net height) |
| f) | 10* | links connecting chain or cable to ceiling and pipe hardware |
* number based on suggested amount for 10', 12', and 14' wide nets- more supports can be added to these nets if desired and more supports are recommended for larger width nets.
