Description Technical Specifications: Tuffy Professional Series Material Construction Vipol Matrix High-Density Micro-Fiber Mesh Fabric Weight 10 oz./sq. yd. Tensile Strength 360 x 320 lbs. (Tear & Puncture Proof) Opacity & Permeability 78% Shade Factor | 22% Wind Pass-Through Available Heights 5′ (Pickleball), 6′, and 9′ (Tennis) Custom Lengths Attachment Hardware Brass Grommets every 12″ (All 4 Sides) Warranty 5-Year Limited Manufacturer Warranty The Tuffy Advantage: Industrial Vipol Matrix Technology The Tuffy Tennis and Pickleball Windscreens offer unparalleled durability for high-traffic athletic facilities. Specifically, the Vipol Matrix material utilizes a tightly woven blend of micro-fibers that far exceeds the strength of standard polyethylene. Consequently, these screens provide the highest puncture and tear resistance currently available in the industry. Furthermore, Tuffy is the only brand featuring advanced Lock-Stitch finishing. This specialized technology prevents the thread from unravelling at the corners and sides. Therefore, even in high-wind environments, your investment maintains its structural integrity and professional look. This durability supports the professional standards found in our tennis court equipment catalog. Optimized Airflow and Privacy 78% Shade Factor: Provides a consistent background for player focus and facility privacy. 22% Wind Permeability: Allows essential airflow to prevent the “sail effect” on fence posts. Half-Moon Vents: We offer die-cut vents every 10 feet at no extra charge for extreme wind zones. UV & Mildew Protection: Integrated inhibitors prevent fading and rot during long-term exposure. 15 Color Options: Choose the perfect aesthetic match for your facility’s branding. Notably, the 10 oz. fabric weight ensures a heavy-duty hang without sagging. Therefore, facility managers can achieve a tailored look for any court dimension. This structural mass makes Tuffy a staple for tournament venues and professional clubs worldwide. Neutral Expert Guidance: Sizing for Tennis and Pickleball As neutral experts, we recommend 6′ or 9′ heights for standard tennis fences to ensure total player privacy. Conversely, the 5′ height is becoming the standard for dedicated pickleball courts. Specifically, selecting the correct height reduces unnecessary wind load on your fence structure. Similarly, every Tuffy screen is custom-made to your exact measurements. Because these are precision-manufactured items, they do not arrive on a roll like lower-quality retail mesh. Consequently, you receive a finished product with reinforced hems and grommets that fits perfectly upon arrival. Windscreen Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A) Q: How do I accurately measure for windscreens? A: Precise measurement is vital for custom orders. Please refer to our How-To Guide or call us for direct assistance. Q: Do you provide installation services? A: While we do not offer installation, most customers find the process straightforward. We are happy to provide resources to guide your DIY installation. Q: What should I use to install the windscreens? A: We recommend using zip ties exclusively. Specifically, use 120 lb. ties for the top and upper sides, and 50 lb. ties for the bottom and lower sides. Q: What are half-moon air vents? A: These are crescent-shaped openings placed every 10 feet. They enhance airflow and reduce wind resistance. Notably, we include these at no extra charge—just specify during your order. Q: Is it okay to only place zip ties in every other grommet? A: No. You must place zip ties in every grommet to ensure longevity. Failure to do so leads to wind damage and may void your 5-year warranty. Q: How much does it cost to print a logo? A: We provide custom logo printing at an additional cost. Please email your logo to in**@************************nt.com for a precise quote. Q: Do the windscreens come on a roll? A: No. Rolled windscreens are generally lower quality. Every Tuffy screen is custom-made to your exact dimensions for superior performance and fit. Ordering and Logistics Policies Please note that the minimum order amount for Tuffy windscreens is $95.00. Because every screen is custom-ordered to your specific dimensions, these items cannot be returned. Furthermore, logo printing and specialized shipping requirements may involve additional costs.
