PRO XL SERIES DASHER BOARDS

The heavier-duty version of our popular PRO Series, the PRO XL Series is designed to accommodate glass panels up to 8’ with an extra vertical member per each 8’ panel. The PRO XL Series panels are 5 ½” overall thickness, by 8’ in length, with two anchors per 8’ panel.

Lightweight, easy to remove and re-install. Approximately ½ the weight of comparable steel-frame board systems (per 8’ panel, our weighs 160 lbs, vs. 300 lbs or more for steel).

The frames, as with all our board systems, are T-5 tempered aluminum alloy extrusions, available with an anodized finish. Anodized aluminum will never rust or pit, and it’s always easy to clean, with just water and mild detergent – so your boards will always look great.

Using state-of-the-art concealed mechanical-fastening techniques (not welded), PRO XL Series provides a more flexible board system old-fashioned steel boards. No exposed brackets or anchors, no collection areas for debris and dirt.

All exposed hardware (e.g., hinges, gate-latches) is available in stainless steel, for maintenance-free durability.

The puck board, top plate and kick plate are all ½” High Density Polyethylene (available in 5 Standard colors: White, Yellow, Red, Blue and Gold; other colors available upon request at an extra charge.

The PRO XL Series board system is the right choice for high-impact, high usage hockey rinks. PRO XL boards are in use at AHL and Major Jr. A arenas in Canada and the United States. In arenas and rinks where the boards are taken out from time to imte, or left in permanently, PRO XL is a perfect choice.

Features and Construction of the Pro XL Series

ALUMINUM—A Lifetime of Durability

Our dasher board systems are crafted from tubular extrusions of T-5 tempered aluminum alloy, engineered and designed by us specifically for our dasher board systems. These extrusions are proprietary to Sport Systems Unlimited: nothing ‘off-the-shelf’ about it. Aluminum frame construction gives you the strength and durability you need for permanent installations, yet its light weight makes it ideal for ease of handling where changeovers are required.

MECHANICAL FASTENING—For Strength and Flexibility

A critical factor in the strength and flexibility of our boards systems lies in our concealed mechanically fastened joints. By mechanically fastening our frames we ensure—unlike welded aluminum frame systems—there are no weak welded joints to become brittle and break. Our boards will ‘give’ upon player or machine impact and come right back into position every time.

ANODIZED FINISH—A Great Appearance for your Facility

Our aluminum is anodized, so it will resist scratching, never rust or oxidize, and always look superb. An “anodized” finish is harder than the surface hardness of the aluminum (almost the surface hardness of diamond). Our board systems have a clean, ‘high-tech’ appearance that constantly receives acclaim for looking noticeably well made.

Combination of anodized aluminum plus our industry-leading concealed mechanical fastening techniques mean your boards will look this great, every day...forever.

STAINLESS STEEL HARDWARE—The Timeless Feel of Steel

For longevity, all of our exposed hardware—latches, door handles, hinges, anchor rods—even our cast-in-place anchors are stainless steel, so they’ll never rust or deteriorate.

Sport Systems hinges (and all exposed hardware) are made from stainless steel. Every hinge is laser cut, so they never need grease, and precision crafted to ensure an exact fit in case of replacement.
