About the JUGS 15-Foot Wide Batting Cage Netting by the Foot
JUGS 15-Foot Wide Batting Cage Netting is twisted, knotted black batting cage net sold by the linear foot in a 15-foot width. It is the material for building a custom baseball or softball cage, closing in a hitting area, adding a divider or barrier, or covering an opening that a stock cage net does not fit. Choose the twine gauge, then enter the number of feet you need as the quantity: a quantity of 40 is a 15 ft x 40 ft section.
How Ordering by the Foot Works
The price shown is for one linear foot of 15-foot wide netting. The quantity you order is the length in feet, and the netting ships as one continuous 15-foot wide section cut to that length. There is no minimum length, so the same product covers a short patch panel and a long run for a facility wall.
Measure before ordering. For a divider or barrier, measure the full run you need to cover. For a custom cage, add up the sides, ends and top you plan to build from 15-foot wide panels, and allow extra length for overlap and tie-off at the corners. If a stock size fits your space, a complete JUGS batting cage net comes sewn to its finished dimensions with a hitter's door, which saves the assembly work.
Choosing a Twine Gauge: #42, #60 or #96
The gauge number describes how heavy the twine is. A higher number means a stronger net that stands up to more balls, harder contact and more hours of use.
- #42 Polyethylene: a thicker twine that is a good fit for backyard cages and youth leagues. The #42 netting carries a 1-year warranty.
- #60 Polyethylene: heavier twine for busy backyard cages, high-level youth play and high school programs. It also carries a 1-year warranty.
- #96 Polyester: the heaviest, most abrasion-resistant netting in the line, with the highest breaking strength, built for high schools, colleges, hitting facilities and professional teams. It carries a 2-year warranty.
Pick the gauge by how many balls will hit the net. A divider that sees an occasional ball can be lighter than the back wall of a cage that takes line drives all day.
Uses for 15-Foot Wide Netting
- Custom batting cages built to fit a barn, warehouse bay, garage or odd-shaped backyard
- Dividers that split one large space into separate hitting or pitching lanes
- Barriers and backstops behind hitting stations, pitching areas or tee and toss stations
- Replacement panels for a damaged section of an existing cage or enclosure
- Extending a cage or closing in the open end of a hitting area
Twisted, Knotted Construction
The netting is twisted and knotted, the same style of construction used on JUGS batting cage nets. Knotted netting holds its mesh shape under repeated impact, which matters on a cage wall that takes direct hits from batted balls. Small damage over time can be fixed with a Batting Cage and Screen Net Repair Kit instead of replacing the whole section.

- Families and coaches building a custom baseball or softball cage in a space no stock cage fits

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I order a specific length?
Choose the twine, then set the quantity to the number of feet you need. A quantity of 25 is one 15 ft x 25 ft section.
Is there a minimum order?
No. Order the length your project needs.
Does it come with a door, ropes or hardware?
No. This is netting only. Complete JUGS batting cage nets come with a built-in hitter's door, and JUGS net installation kits supply the hardware for hanging a stock net.
Which gauge should I choose?
#42 suits most backyard and youth use, #60 suits heavier backyard and high school use, and #96 is the choice for colleges, hitting facilities and professional teams.
Can I build a whole cage from it?
Yes. Order enough length to cover the sides, ends and top of the cage you plan, and allow extra for overlap at the seams. If a stock size fits, a finished JUGS cage net is usually simpler.
