ALUMINIUM POSTS AND CROSSPIECES

EXTEBOIS has developed its own extrusion processes for its aluminum posts and crosspieces to provide them with high mechanical resistance and personalised aesthetics.

There are 4 profiles :

For the beams :

  • 36x90mm

For the posts of the play structures :

  • 68x68 mm,
  • 90x90 mm,
  • Ø 89mm

The internal reinforcements increase the bending strength of the profile and prevent crushing when tightening the bolts.

The grooves on each side provide aesthetic appeal, mechanical reinforcement, and allow the use of anti-crush washers for bolts.

The polyester lacquer finishes in anthracite grey or beige perfectly complement all panel colors and provide a silky touch to the posts. The selected aluminum is of grade 6063T66 with very high mechanical strength. This allows us to guarantee them for 20 years against any structural failure..

The finishing caps are riveted to the profiles and thus become non-removable.
These profiles allow the assembly of the structures by stainless-steel through bolts with tamper-proof nut covers, thus guaranteeing the longevity of the structures.

GLUED LAMINATED TIMBER POSTS

Made of wood from French sustainably managed forests (PEFC certification), the glued laminated posts undergo a class IV autoclave treatment against rot and insects and are resistant to bad weather and humidity.

The choice of high quality glued laminated posts guarantees :

  • No knots, splinters, or other defects
  • Improved and durable mechanical strength
  • No distortion

The finishing glaze provides :

  • Aesthetic honey-coloured finish
  • A softer touch
  • Extra protection against the weather

WOOD FOR SPORTS APPARATUS

All the fitness trails, mini-courses, and mountain bike courses equipment are made of French PEFC-certified pine, treated with autoclave class IV.
The significant sections of the posts - ranging from 110mm to 200mm in diameter depending on the product - provide the play equipment with unparalleled strength.
All the woods are systematically sanded to remove any risk of splinters.

STAINLESS-STEEL HANDRAILS AND PLAY EQUIPMENT

The handrails, tubes, and ladders are made of fully welded stainless steel, providing aesthetics and strength. They are fixed to the structure by stainless-steel bolts.

HPL PANELS

High Pressure Laminate (HPL) is a composite material made of wood fibre and resin. Completely impervious to moisture and weather conditions, this rot-resistant material offers perfect dimensional stability and high mechanical strength.
The thickness used range from 10 to 15 mm.

For the floors, an anti-slip surface structure prevents the risk of unintentional slipping on wet floors.
The 15 colours are 10 years guaranteed against UV radiation.

ANCHOR PLATES

The glued laminated and aluminium posts are mounted on 3mm thick galvanised steel plates. This avoids any contact with the ground and prevents premature ageing of the wood and allows for potential dismantling of the structure without damaging the posts.

ROPES

The ropes are made up of 6 steel strands sheathed in polyester fibres with anti-abrasion treatment.
The stainless-steel lugs are assembled to the rope using a pneumatic crimping machine, thus guaranteeing maximum resistance to tearing.

The polypropylene braces, fixed with stainless-steel screws, guarantee a foolproof assembly, and allow the rope to be changed easily on site.

STAINLESS-STEEL ACCESSORIES AND FASTENERS

All tubes, bolts, screws, lock nuts, chains, and assembly brackets are made of stainless steel. The durability of the play structure is therefore guaranteed by these corrosion-resistant fixings.
Non-removable polypropylene covers protect the bolts from vandalism.

Anti-crushing washers on all posts and crossbars prevent the bolts from penetrating the wood when tightened.

SPRINGS

The springs are made of Ø 20 or 22mm steel wire specially selected for their shear strength. They are protected by phosphating and epoxy painting to improve their corrosion resistance.
