Sponeta S5-70e - High quality for your leisure
Among other products, the German company Sponeta produces high-quality table tennis tables in Schlotheim (Thuringia, Germany). During the warm season, one really can feel the urge doing outdoor activities. Sponeta is specialized in the production of table tennis tables, for example. One series of outdoor tables is the S5 series, and the Sponeta S5-70e is one concrete model within this series - high leisure quality suitable for private purposes, but also for schools, clubs, and other facilities. The S5 70e fulfills DIN EN 14468-1 and Sponeta offers a 2-year-warranty.
Sponeta S5-70e - The surface of this table
The surface board of the Sponeta S5-70e is made of melamine resin (thickness 6 mm). Melamine resins (melamine-formaldehyde condensation resins) are synthetic resins made of melamine and formaldehyde, which is bonded together (so-called duroplastic plastics). Their properties perfectly meet the criteria for outdoor tables: They are weather and light resistant, exhibit great mechanical strength, and are thermically stable (e.g. well over 100 °C). Mechanical impacts are critical, there is only a limited resistance. The same is true for acids or alkalis.
The surface color is grey / anthracite, which we find optically very appealing. It is simply something different compared to the classical blue or green surfaces. The melamine resin board is firmly glued onto the substructure. The frame profile is stable (L-50 mm) and powder-coated (black, RAL code: 9005).
Sponeta S 5-70 e - the base frame under closer examination
The base frame (Compact Type 4b) of the S 5-70e is also powder-coated, however, with a different color (white-aluminum, RAL 9006). The squared tube measures 50x30 mm and provides good stability. The transport is achieved via 4 double wheels (diameter 128 mm), which exhibit rubber running surfaces. All wheels are swiveling. The base frame also includes holders at either side for your rackets and balls - a practical feature! Thanks to the playback position, you can also do single training sessions. Due to height-adjustable support legs, you can compensate unevenness in the floor of up to about 30 mm.
In order to lock and secure this ping pong table, Sponeta provides the SMS mechanism (Smart Manual System). For this, there are visible handles. A drawbar just underneath the surface board unlocks both safety devices simultaneously. The automatic locking mechanism secures the table tennis surface board in the storage or playing position. The spreader bars and the support bracket are both black (RAL 9011).
