The frame is 1.5 inch powder coated steel with a compression bolt together design, and one piece frame padding wraps the steel so balls that hit the frame do not ricochet hard back toward the hitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe UV weather treated #60 knotted net slips over the frame pillowcase style, and the sock target area measures 53 inches wide by 49 inches high. A welded gusset on each leg adds strength and long life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat a Sock Net Screen Does\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA sock net screen is a square protective screen with a deep net pocket hanging in the middle of the frame. Hitters drive balls into the pocket during tee work, soft toss and front toss, and the pocket catches the ball and drops it at the base of the screen instead of sending it back toward the hitter. That makes it a hitting station and a protective screen in one piece of equipment. Coaches set it up behind a tee in the cage, on the side of the infield for pregame soft toss, or in a gym for indoor hitting when the weather turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose the Padded Premium\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrame padding protects the screen and the people around it. Balls that catch the edge of the frame lose speed in the padding, the steel is protected from dings, and the screen holds up to the volume of hitting a team puts through it in a season. It is the step up from the Varsity screen for programs that use the screen every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWays to Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTee work: set a tee a few feet in front of the screen and drive line drives into the pocket.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft toss: the feeder tosses from the side while the hitter drives the ball into the pocket.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort front toss: the screen stops balls that are hit back up the middle at a short feeding distance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePregame warm ups: set it up along the fence so hitters get loose swings without chasing balls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWheel Kit Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wheel kit mounts on the base of the frame so one coach can roll the screen on and off the field or around a facility. The Standard Wheel Kit uses smooth plate wheels; the Pro Wheel Kit uses airless tread tires that never go flat, with steel plates that protect the bearings and hub.
