Questions & Answers about RuffNeck™ Fixed Height Basketball Goal:
For a town park with unsupervised public access, would you recommend an acrylic backboard or tempered glass?
Definitely acrylic if unsupervised public access. Tempered glass is particularly susceptible to vandalism.
Q:
Is there a bracket that goes between FT270 Aluminum Basketball Backboard and FT1900BC Braces Only and the 4-1/2" brace?
There is a "Ruffneck nosecone" that connect the FT270 backboard to the 4.5" OD Ruffneck post. Also, there is a 'Ruffneck T-Clamp & U-Bolt" that connects the FT1900BC braces to the neck of the Ruffneck post.
How do I install the braces on RuffNeck Flight or Max backboards?
Loosely attach them to the backboard, then grab the opposite end of the brace and move it into position, the brace will bend on its own. You will NOT use the welded tab for attachment, instead the brace connects to the same bolt the clamps use.
What is the difference between FT1900NC and FT1900BC?
The FT1900NC is a nose cone kit that is designed to slip over the end of a 4 1/2 inch OD gooseneck basketball post that allows the backboard to connect to the post. The FT1900BC is braces only.
