Why Aluminum?

Aluminum vs. Steel Dasher Boards
Aluminum dasher boards have been available for a long time. There is no question that aluminum boards have always been more desirable than steel boards because they are lighter and do not rust.
Why Aluminum?
- Strength …. structural aluminum alloy will take it and bounce back. See our engineering specifications and testing report.
- Light …. half the weight of steel boards.
- Versatile …. it can be made into complicated shapes.
- Appearance …. long lasting beauty.
- Flexibility …. good movement capability.
- Available …. in an anodized finish.
Why Sport Systems?
- Aluminum boards have always been a welded construction in mill finish. Welding takes the temper out of the aluminum and weakens the material. Anodized aluminum cannot be welded, therefore it is supplied in mill finish that will discolor with oxidation on the surface.
- We use current technology for fabricating aluminum which is: concealed mechanical fastening brackets. The strength of the aluminum is not reduced by the fabrication process and is much stronger with lighter material. The aluminum extrusions can be provided in a permanent anodized finish, the most desirable and long lasting finish available. It is maintenance free and cleans with mild soap and water! Advanced technology is evident in every aspect of our company and our products.
Affordable? Yes!
We have brought to you, a truly light weight anodized aluminum board system (150 lb. vs. 300 lb. plus per panel) for the price of a low end steel board system. When you compare value for value over the long term, our products will cost you far less than wood or steel alternatives. It is up to you to make an informed decision!
