What Makes LFS Nets The Best?

Three equally important elements make LFS Nets stand out among our competitors.

Materials LFS Sports & Industrial Netting has always placed great value on using only the highest quality components: netting, rope and twine. Our customers know that the money they might save by purchasing “economy” netting is lost many times over when a netting system fails within the first few years.

Workmanship LFS Sports & Industrial Netting is fortunate to be able to offer a level of custom fabrication and consistency unmatched in the marketplace. Our ability to produce complex netting systems with an extraordinary degree of accuracy has led our customers to believe there is nothing we cannot accomplish.

TESTING STANDARDS International Standards For Mesh Breaking Strength Netting Tests Conducted by Independent Laboratory Per ISO 1806 Methodology We retained an independent testing lab to determine the mesh breaking loads on both the #970 and #930 range barrier nettings. The tests are conducted on a JJLloyd Universal Testing Machine (DE-110) which is in current calibration and traceable to the national in institute of standards and technology.

Calculation And Expression Of Results

ISO 1806 is the international standards organization’s method for testing of netting. The following is a basic definition that describes the testing procedure.

Test reports shall include the following particulars:

The average mesh breaking load is equal to the sum of observed breaking loads divided by the number of observations.

Test Reports • A statement that the tests were performed in accordance with this international standard

Load Application

• The date of the test

Loading is applied with pins through one mesh that was at least one mesh inside the selvage (edge).

Tension loads are applied at a rate of one inch per minute until failure occurs. All tension is applied in the direction of the manufactured netting.

• A description of the netting type

Number of Tests

• Any deviation from the specified test procedure (Deviations from this testing procedure can produce incomparable results)

A minimum of ten random break tests must be carried out in order to give a fair representation of a given netting sample.

• The type and the capacity of the testing machine used, the type of holding devices employed and the range of indication

• The number of specimens tested
