Sponeta S5-72e - surface board
The surface board is made of melamine resin, which measures a thickness of 6 mm. Melamine resins (melamine-formaldehyde condensation resins) are synthetic resins made of melamine and formaldehyde bonded together (duroplastic plastics). Their properties meet the criteria for outdoor tables: They are mechanically strong, thermically stable (e.g. well over 100 °C), and weather as well as light resistant. Mechanical impacts are critical, there is only a limited resistance. The same is true for acids or alkalis.
The surface color is green and the melamine resin board is firmly glued onto the substructure. The frame profile is very stable (L-50 mm) and powder-coated (black, RAL code: 9005).
Sponeta S 5-72 e - the base frame
The base frame (Compact Type 4b) of the Sponeta S 5-72e is also powder-coated, however, with a different color (white, 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 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).
