Golf Impact Net Material Guide: Why 3 mm Knotless UHMWPE Works for Ranges and Simulators
A guide to golf impact netting: 3 mm knotless UHMWPE, 1 in square mesh, what it handles at ranges, practice cages and simulators, and what to check before you order.
A golf impact net has one job: stop a ball at full speed, again and again. The material, the twine size and the mesh size decide how long it lasts and how safely it works.
The material we use for impact netting is UHMWPE, an ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene. It is the same family of fibre used in cut-resistant gloves and marine rope, and it is known for high abrasion resistance. For impact nets we supply it as a 3 mm knotless net.
Mesh size matters. Our golf impact netting uses 1 in, or 25 mm, square mesh. The small square mesh stops a golf ball, spreads the load across the net, and gives a clean look from the tee.
Where it is used. Driving ranges use it behind the tees and along the sides. Practice cages and golf simulators use it as the back and side netting that stops the ball close to the player. For simulators, keep the net clear of the screen and check the fixings often, because a loose net moves when it is hit.
How to order. Tell us the width and height you need, and whether the net is for a range, a cage or a simulator. We supply impact netting to order in the Binzhou factory, with custom sizes. Contact us for a quote.
