Fieldturf Duraspine Monofilament

THE MONOFILAMENT SYSTEM Fiber A durable "spine" runs vertically through the center of each fiber providing unmatched "memory" and resistance to matting. Treated with UV inhibiters, the fiber is more resistant to foot traffic yet remains silky and non-abrasive. Infill A durable "spine" runs vertically through the center of each fiber providing unmatched "memory" and resistance to matting. Treated with UV inhibiters, the fiber is more resistant to foot traffic yet remains silky and non-abrasive. Silica Sand Cryogenic Rubber Fiber The arched profile of this monofilament fiber is based on similar structures found in nature. Extruded through a "spinnerette, " this “true” monofilament fiber delivers unmatched durability, especially resistance to wear. Tests indicate that although this fiber is far more durable, it remains silky and lush, just like nature intended. The monofilament system is available in over 20 colors. Infill The washed silica sand does not break down from use or heavy traffic. The cryogenic rubber is recycled rubber, frozen and shattered, creating smooth-sided spherical particles. As compared to 3 pounds of ambient rubber found in most other artificial turf, each square foot of Field. Turf contains 7 pounds of silica sand plus 3 pounds of cryogenic rubber. A base layer of silica sand is followed by up to 21 individual layers of mixed silica sand cryogenic rubber and then topped with a final layer of specially graded cryogenic rubber which stays on the top of the infill system. Backing The backing is made of a combination of permeable woven and non-woven polypropylene fabrics to provide exceptional strength and unmatched vertical drainage. The fibers are tufted (stitched) into the backing material in rows according to a patented wide gauge spacing formula that enables cleats to penetrate the infill material rather than the surface fiber. This provides excellent traction and very low torsion resistance that prevents injuries. Our patented “finger unit system” adds an impermeable coating over the back of each row of stitching, creating a chemical and mechanical bond for enhanced "tuft bind, " leaving the rest of the backing material totally permeable and creating rows of superior drainage channels.
