Rampball®

MATERIALS, QUALITY AND DURABILITY

• All parts are designed for long-term outdoor use.
• All steel parts are hot-galvanized and/or powder coated.
• The ball have an outer layer of EPDM.
• The core is made of recycled rubber.
• A flange of natural rubber covers the spring and mounting hole.
• Operations, administration and maintenance documentation is provided at delivery.

Mounting on different ground covers

Artificial grass/wet pour ground covers (rubber/cork etc.)

Grass/loose-fill covers (wood chips, sand etc.)

ShockDeck™

Suitable ground covers

• Wet pour ground covers, artificial grass, grass, sand, wood chips
• Please specify the intended ground cover when ordering or enquiring.

SAFETY AREA

• The required extent of the safety area around the equipment is 150 cm (ref EN 1176-1: 2017 / 4.2.8.2.5)
• Ground covers with shock absorbing properties for a fall height of up to 100 cm should be used in the safety area.
• The safety area can overlap with other equipment (ref EN 1176-1: 2017 / 4.2.8.2.5)
• Several Rampballs can be placed in a group (ref EN 1176-1: 2017 / 3.20)

fall height

• Rampball®70 – 70 cm   /  Rampball®50 – 51 cm  / Rampball®35 – 36 cm

MOUNTING

• Rampball is delivered ready for mounting on a concrete foundation. Expansion bolts are included.
• The required thickness of the concrete foundation is 20 cm. When the foundation for multiple units is casted in one piece the required thickness is 15 cm.
• When mounting on grass and loose fill ground covers an optional extender will be needed to allow for 21.5 cm (grass) or 30 cm (loose fill) mounting depth.
• Mounting time approx. 45 min for 1 person (2 persons are needed for Rampball®70R).
• Installation instructions are included.
• See instructional video for mounting

SAFETY

• Certified according to EN 1176-1:2017 (playground equipment) and EN 16630 (outdoor fitness equipment)
• To avoid potential pinching the spring is protected with a rubber flange.

RAMPBALLS PLACED IN CLUSTERS

What distances should one choose when multiple balance balls are placed in a group? Here’s some advice:

• The minimum required distance between balls is calulated by adding maximum tilts of ball 1 and 2 to the skull standard width (23 cm).
• For children up to about 6 years of age, the balls should be placed at the minimum required distance to make it possible to jump from one ball to the next without stepping on the ground.
• For older children, the distances can be increased slightly.
• If there are 3 or more balls in a group, one should strive for variation in the distances.
• Varied distances create more variation in the play in terms of challenge and degree of difficulty. This makes the setup suitable for a wider age group.
• The balls can be placed in a row to form an obstacle course, or in clusters.
• When multiple balls are placed in a circle they can also act as a seating area.

We are happy to assist you with advice for designing an exciting motor skill park adapted to the relevant age group. Please contact us.
