Trampoline Springs
Maintaining a Good Bounce – Keeping Your Trampoline Springs in Good Shape
Many people view the possibility of adding a trampoline in their backyard with some skepticism. First, they think that a trampoline is only a child’s toy, and we all know that children can be very fickle when it comes to actually using the toys they begged to have just days earlier. No one wants to spend hundreds of dollars on a trampoline only to have their kids get bored with it within a month. Also, many parents are concerned that trampolines pose too much of a safety risk. Like all sports equipment, the safety level of a trampoline increases as the level of maintenance increase.
The most common source of injury on a trampoline is equipment malfunctions that occur because of damage to the trampoline springs. Most trampoline manufacturers make springs from good quality galvanized steel because it helps to safeguard the essential elements from rust. The trampoline springs are responsible for bearing most of the impact from the weight of the jumpers, as well as connecting the trampoline mat to the frame. If the springs are allowed to become stretched, rusted, or damaged, they’re likely to give way completely, causing the jumper to crash to the ground.
If you’re interested in keeping your trampoline as safe as possible, it’s important to keep up with regular maintenance of the trampoline parts. This means using the proper trampoline accessories to protect your outdoor trampoline from wind, rain, and the damaging rays of the sun, as well as making a thorough inspection of all the trampoline parts before each time that you use it. If your trampoline is mainly used by children, it’s important to teach them how to inspect the structure, and when to report signs of damage and wear to you before they jump on it.
Typically, it will only be one or two springs that will show signs of wear at once. In these cases, it’s fairly simple and inexpensive to replace the individual trampoline springs. It’s important to have a few extra springs on hand so that you don’t have to make the structure off limits for days while you wait for replacement parts to come in the mail. If you have to replace all the springs, such as on a used trampoline, make sure you remove all old hardware and lay the mat out in the middle of the frame before proceeding. Attach springs in a staggered pattern so that tension is maintained while you’re setting it up.
