Har-Tru Sports

Welcome to har-tru sports DEVELOPING CHAMPIONS AROUND THE WORLD When you own a Har-Tru court, you share a piece of history. Har-Tru is made from natural, green stone formed hundreds of millions of years ago in the Appalachian Mountains. This stone is quarried in Charlottesville, Va. just below historic Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson.

This uniquely hard and angular stone was first used for Har-Tru in 1932 when a test court was built in Hagerstown, Md. It was easy to build with, easy to maintain and fast to dry and steadily became the surface of choice for avid tennis players and aspiring champions. Har-Tru courts have been a part of the US Open and the 2014 Davis Cup

by BNP Paribas First Round Tie, USA versus Great Britain.

With courts and products in 23 countries and every state in the U.S., this uniquely American surface is the training ground for the next wave of Grand Slam champions. Har-Tru remains dedicated to developing these champions through a variety of activities, including partnerships with tournaments, leagues, training centers and grassroots programs. Our consulting activities and seminars assist club and resort operators, as well as contractors, provide the ultimate court experience for current and future players.

WHAT DOES CONSULTING WITH HAR-TRU DELIVER TO YOU AND YOUR CUSTOMERS? The Facility Analysis Survey includes gathering and documenting historical site data, geotechnical information, court orientation, computer-generated 3-dimensional topographical surface maps, surface thickness and base stone measurements, analysis of the irrigation systems, court drainage, curbing, tennis court lighting, nets, net posts, fencing, and other court and player amenities.

We can help you provide the ultimate court experience for your current and future players. The Facility Analysis Survey supplies you with the tools you need to educate and advocate for your current and future court care needs and expansion.

Wilson Clay court Ball

Engineered specifically for Har-Tru courts!

This ball is the culmination of many requests from customers, many conversations with vendors and considerable on-court testing. We are thrilled to be able to share with you Tour Clay Green from Wilson, a tennis ball designed for Har-Tru courts and endorsed by us! This product is enhanced with Element Guard Technology to prevent the balls from picking up moisture and clay. This improves performance, while increasing ball life and visibility. It’s a must for indoor Har-Tru courts and sub-surface irrigated courts.

european red clay

Our European Red is ideal for topdressing existing real clay courts and covering red ClayTech courts. It has also been used as a cap on top of existing Har-Tru courts to seal off the green and leave the fiery red/orange finish on display. The product is produced from crushed bricks and is imported in 55-lb bags.

nets

Har-Tru nets are made of polyester, a stronger, crisper-looking material that drapes extremely well compared with polypropylene, which typically produces a stiffer-bodied, duller-looking net.

For our contractors, we also stock and load Har-Tru or HydroBlend in bulk bags. These disposable bags are available in 2000 lbs, 2500 lbs and 2800 lbs and can be taken right from the truck to the court with a forklift.

Tow Model Gator Rake 146-3684

The Har-Tru Gator Rake is one of the finest grooming and leveling tools we have ever offered. The product is all aluminum and stainless steel. The tine system is composed of stainless steel rods less than 1/8 inch in diameter that put just the right bite into your court surface, leaving a finely groomed, highly manicured appearance. The Har-Tru Gator Rake can be towed behind a cart or pulled by hand, depending on your needs. Weight can be added to the top of the rake on special weight towers (must be purchased separately) to increase the aggressiveness of the tool and help it dig into hard-packed courts, regenerating loose sliding material.

HAND Gator Rake 146-3685 24"

The 24" Hand Gator Rake is ideal for agitating the court surface prior to patching and topdressing. It also works great as a maintenance tool on small hard-pan areas and along fence lines.

COURT DEVIL

COURT DEVIL JR.

Designed to agitate the court surface without removing or damaging existing line tapes, it also helps prevent and break up mineral deposits, mold, algae and fungus that tighten the court surface. It scarifies the court with circular steel blades mounted on free-turning axles. For best results on the court, add no more than 50 lbs of additional weight. Weight 105 lbs, width 48".

This smaller, hand-model Court Devil is designed for maintaining areas along court perimeters and beneath the net line. It is also great for loosening localized hard spots. Weight 85 lbs, width 16".

TOW SCARIFIER

146-3413 4' wide, 2 rows of nails, 61 nails per row This 48" wide heavy-duty tow model scarifier is truly a workhorse for loosening the top surface on Har-Tru courts. It is especially good for indoor courts and sunbaked Southern courts that have excess calcium buildup. The unit is heavy enough to allow its two rows of case-hardened nails to really penetrate the surface.

• Staggered nails on each row prevent clumps • Sized to fit between the alley tape • Levered wheels lift unit over tapes so tapes can be left in place • Adjustable tow hitch fits most utility vehicles • Adjustable steel rails lower nails as they wear down • Removable steel plate allows for easy nail replacement • 40D nails: 3/16" diameter by 5" long

146-3415 Replacement nails

LUTE/SCARIFIER 146-3047 30" 146-3420 48"

The lute/scarifier is two tools in one, made of all-aluminum for scarifying, leveling and removing loose granules. It is strong and sturdy, yet light enough to use all day and excellent for spreading new material during topdressing. The concave shape of the 30" wide blade allows the tool to “float” along the surface, without grabbing or digging in.

TAPE LAYOUT CABLES 150-3032

Line tape layout is a snap with the court cables from Har-Tru. One person can locate pivot points and corners quickly, saving time and effort. Instructions included.

KNEE NAILER 150-3423

The Knee Nailer was designed to reduce the grind of hand nailing. It is constructed of highly durable 11-gauge steel, stable wheels and a removable, 1" heavy-density foam pad to kneel on. The top of the unit is 3 3/8" off the ground. By placing one knee on the cushioned surface, an individual can roll comfortably along the length of the line without having to constantly get up and down. With 2000 nails in one court, this little accessory provides big relief.

Court TAPE Nailing system

TAPE STRETCHER

Easy to operate, this heavy-duty pneumatic coil-type nailing machine reduces tennis court installation time by 70%. When pushed along a preset boundary tape, nails are set every 6 inches along the tape edge, with the process repeated along the other side of the tape. Its adjustable dual chassis allows the nail gun to recoil and not affect the chassis alignment. Pivoting rear axle compensates for uneven court surfaces. Automatic or manual control. Requires air compressor with a minimum of 5 hp and 8 cfm. 60 lbs.

The tape stretcher ratchet has a 2"-wide slot to insert tape for quick and easy installation of straight line tapes by one person. The leather pad and support strap allow the ratchet to pull the tape straight and taut just above the surface so it can be nailed securely. The tape stretcher will improve the straightness of your tape and decrease installation time. It is especially helpful with old tapes.

This Designer tape is the best line tape you can buy for your court, with its surespin feature and unique raised pattern, specifically designed to allow consistent ball spin and speed at any angle the ball strikes the tape. It offers easy cleaning, long life, and stability, and will not yellow with age. The webbing is made from the finest synthetics available, and has a pure PVC coating. It is available with or without preformed nail holes.

108-3677 36' Temporary Lines

108-3678 60' Temporary Lines

Our 36' temporary lines come in red to match the red ball used on 36' courts and to show up sharply against the Har-Tru green. The system comes in two pieces, an outside rectangle and an inside I. The pieces are attached with Velcro and secured to the court surface with just twelve nails. Nails are included with the lines. Lines are 1" wide.

These lines are identical to the 36' lines except they are colored orange to match the orange ball used in 60' tennis. Ten nails (included) secure these to the court.

One Velcro intersection allows you to install the lines without disconnecting the center strap. All intersections are stitched together. Lines are 1.5" wide.

HAR-TRU CLASSIC TAPE HAR-TRU HERRINGBONE 109-601P TAPE The same top-quality webbing and vinyl coating used in our Designer line tape is also the basis for our Har-Tru Classic tape. It has an even-textured, rubberized coating that combines good ball bounce, long life and easy cleaning. Available with preformed nail holes. The Har-Tru Classic tape represents affordable quality in a line tape.

109-603P (punched) 109-603U (unpunched)

The Har-Tru Herringbone tape is designed to ensure consistent ball spin and speed at any angle the ball strikes the tape. It is easy to install, made of long-lasting vinyl, meets specifications, cleans easily, stays white longer and has preformed holes for nailing ease. It has the same long-life quality as the Har-Tru Classic tape, but with added texture. The balance of quality construction and player benefits makes the Herringbone tape the best tape value.

Every club should have one.

This unique combination tool from Australia helps pick up and remove leaves, pine needles, stones, ball fuzz and other debris found on your court while grooming the court like a drag brush. The PVC tines lift the debris and flip it on top of the unit so it can be carried off the court. Available in 4' and 8' widths.

The tow handle includes right and left handles, a U joint, and an “S” hook. This setup allows the drag brush to be pulled at the proper angle and provides for easy attachment to a utility vehicle. Special knuckle action helps prevent breakage if the brush bumps the fence or net while in tow.

SUPER SOPPER

143-300 7-gal Mackerel 143-301 14-gal Dolphin The Super Sopper takes care of total water removal by lifting water off the court using an ingenious collection system that holds up to 14 gallons at a time. How does the Super Sopper work? Water is lifted from a court using a spongecovered barrel and is strained into the center of the porous barrel, where it can be held and later emptied. The Super Sopper is perfect for courts that tend to puddle in low areas and need total water removal to get courts in play fast. It can be used on both hard courts and Har-Tru courts.

IRRIGATION

4-HEAD LAYOUT

We offer equipment from three leaders in irrigation. Why? Facilities have individual needs and preferences and we want to provide you a choice. All the heads we offer have stainless steel risers and are highly suited for tennis court sprinkler systems.

Here are a few notes that might help you make a selection:

6-HEAD LAYOUT 30'

1 X gpm 2 X gpm

30'

8-HEAD LAYOUT

30'-40'

1. Ascertain the pressure and volume of your water source and the size of your incoming line. Then utilize the chart on the next page to see what heads are an option.

1 X gpm 2 X gpm 3 X gpm 4 X gpm

2. The higher the model numbers, the more water the head will put on the court and the further the throw radius.

3. The Rainbird Falcon Series has a different head for full-circle (FC) and part-circle (PC) rotation, so select the head that meets your needs.

30'-40'

BATTERY OF TWO COURTS 7- OR 8-HEAD LAYOUT

4. HS means it is a high-speed head. High-speed heads turn more quickly than standard heads, allowing them to distribute more water per watering cycle. Due to the faster rotating speed, the distance they throw the water will be reduced.

Har-Tru consultants are available to answer your questions by phone at 1-877-4HARTRU. We also have consultants who will come to your facility and analyze your system and help you design a new one. Let us do the work!

COUrTmaster TENNIS NET POSTS

COURTMASTER ROYALE ROUND POST WITH INTERNAL WIND

COURTMASTER ROYALE SQUARE POST WITH INTERNAL WIND

100-244 (3" OD)

100-245 (3" SQ)

The Royale post body is made of ASTM-1045 steel, coated both outside and inside with hot zinc to prevent rust and then powder coated.

• Deadend post has two-position cable hooks and a grooved post cap. Winder side post has a brass pulley post cap.

• The corrosion-resistant, self-locking internal wind assembly, now constructed of hardened stainless steel with matching removable handle, has been re-engineered for a superior winding mechanism.

• The post handle’s winder screw is now secured at its end to decrease the amount of play and make tightening the net a smoother operation.

• The gear wheel is now smaller, with longer cogs, and is held in place from both sides, decreasing the amount of play—and thus wear—to the gears.

• A wheel was added to feed the tennis net cable and seat it properly onto the winder so it won’t lock up.

• Equipped with welded lacing rods for a professional net installation.

• Collars included. Sleeves purchased separately.

• Available in green or black. 64" overall length. 100-244: 65 lbs; 100-245: 75 lbs.

TENNIS Post accessories TNT gauge 107-3658 Net Tension Gauge

Direct Mount 107-3657 Net Tension Gauge

Short Bottom Mount 107-3656 Net Tension Gauge,

Standard Bottom

Loop Reliability, predictability and safety! This innovative product provides a simple and reliable solution to consistent net tension. A shot that hits the net cord is challenging enough. Competitive players want the experience to be the same from court to court, and the TNT gauge allows for greater predictability by synchronizing net tension across multiple courts.

Perhaps more importantly, the TNT gauge promotes safety. If someone bounces or falls on the net, the cord and the posts can be dangerously stressed. With the TNT gauge installed, the spring yields first, reducing risk and protecting players. This product has been used and tested at the professional and collegiate levels. Order them for your facility today.

Center Strap 106-754

Our adjustable center strap can be used with any pipe anchor.

Made from a high-quality synthetic webbing for long life, it includes a heavy-duty adjustable buckle with a double snap at the bottom.

Ask us about other center straps.

Universal External-Wind Assembly* 104-500  Available in Green or Black 104-219 External Reel for Courtmaster Posts *Please specify your brand of post when ordering.

Center Strap Anchor 106-755

The center strap anchor is made from black steel pipe with a pin in the top for center strap hookup. It is coated with green enamel paint and has an overall length of 9". A 2" outside diameter pipe makes it easy to attach and detach the net strap.

Ask us about other center strap anchors.

TIP Keeping the Har-Tru surface agitated around and under the net can help inhibit and eliminate moss and algae. Surface scarification is a natural remedy for all moss and algae growth.

The shoe brush is easily cleaned with a hose or soap and water.

The Court Maid is installed at the gates and exit points of your Har-Tru courts for cleaning tennis shoes and trapping Har-Tru within its collection basin. The all-aluminum powder-coated frame is covered by a super-strong brush unit that is easily removed to clean out the accumulated Har-Tru. Simply hose off to clean. The unit measures 12" x 10 1/2" x 5 1/2".

how to choose windscreens

Call us to talk about including logos on your windscreen.

Windscreens are a functional and aesthetic addition to your tennis courts. They provide a dark backdrop against which players can see and react to ball movement better. They serve to break up gusting winds and allow consistent, even air flow. Windscreens minimize annoying distractions from nearby swimming pools, parking lots, highways and players on adjacent courts. They give courts a professional appearance and increase playing pleasure by providing a consistent background and color.

With today’s various windscreen materials, the decision regarding which one to use should be based primarily on cost and aesthetic considerations rather than on wind reduction, because all windscreens work well to break up gusting winds.

Another consideration is how dense a windscreen can be installed without risking fence damage from strong winds. Nine-foot windscreens are recommended for nearly all courts, and they should include anti-billow tabs as well as 6" x 12" openings placed 5' to 10' apart. Six-foot windscreens generally do not look as attractive as, nor reduce wind as well as, nine-foot windscreens.

They should only be used if the facilities are located near the water with very strong winds, which would destroy fences with 9' windscreens attached.

Our most highly recommended windscreen is the Mastershade Plus. Made of knitted high-density polyethylene monofilament, it has superior UV resistance and a special “heat-set” treatment that allows the windscreen to lie flat and straight on the fence without billowing. Mastershade Plus hems are 3-ply construction with heavy-duty binding, and anti-billow tabs built into every nine-foot piece. It is moderately priced, easy to install, very durable, and

34

www.hartru.com | 1-877-4-HAR-TRU (1-877-442-7878)

looks good over time, making it perfect for nearly all applications.

However, if privacy is an issue, you may need a more opaque windscreen to minimize visual distractions from public thoroughfares. The Royale Screen, made of vinyl-coated polyester, is an excellent choice and offers a high level of opacity.

For smaller budgets, the PVC offers high mildew and sun resistance at an excellent price, while the polypropylene Air Master I is an excellent choice for controlling wind while providing consistent airflow. They both look great on the court and add to your playing pleasure.

At the high end, the nine-foot-high Pro Screen offers a particularly attractive and distinctive look with its five-foot-high vinyl center (for maximum ball visibility) and two-foot-high PVC top and bottom (for optimal airflow).

vent & window patterns Please note that when ordering windscreens with vents or windows, you will automatically receive our standard straightline configuration unless you specify differently at time of order. If you prefer a high/low configuration or a different straightline design or placement, you must inform us when your order is placed. Call us if you need a copy of these standard designs and placements or to ask about other configurations.

about har-tru courts

Why should I play on a What is the base Har-Tru court instead of a Har-Tru of a hard court? tennis court?

How should I build my court?

Har-Tru allows for the player to slide into the shot, which dramatically reduces the amount of injury and stress that can occur in the lower part of the body on a hard court. The court is also much cooler during the hot summer months. From a developmental standpoint, Har-Tru slows the pace of the ball down as it bounces.

This forces longer rallies, which causes the player to think through the point more. The slowness of the game also makes it more enjoyable for recreational and senior players because they are able to get to more balls and play longer into the day.

Laser technology and its use with grading equipment have helped modernize the tennis court building industry. Courts can now be graded accurately to within one half of an inch, an 80% improvement over previous tolerances. Additionally, it takes only one eighth the time to build a court. Because of these advances, most larger and reputable tennis court contractors either own laser-guided grading equipment or subcontract the laser grading out.

Typically, the base of a Har-Tru court consists of a stable, well-graded, porous, crushed stone material. There are guide specifications available for prospective builders. Some bases, such as cocina and soft, water-soluble limestones, will actually recalcify over time and become impervious to water. These materials should be avoided. Feel free to send in potential base samples for us to approve.

Typical construction uses a two-layer system. The top layer made of the crushed stone screenings (1/4" to dust) and a sub-base layer of larger, wellgraded stone (3/4" to dust).

Another option is to build your own court with help from Har-Tru. Typically, carpentry tools, a surveyor’s level or laser level, screed rails and a straight edge, rakes, shovels and lutes are the key tools needed to construct your own court.

It isn't very complicated and just takes some time and planning, and—of course— hard work.

ABout hydrocourts

the irrigation system How hydrocourt that helps you train Works like a champion

Unmatched Consistency

Training on clay helps mold tennis players into champions. That’s because clay court tennis is a learning environment that forces you to continually broaden, test and refine your skills to succeed.

When Har-Tru Sports purchased the rights to HydroCourt in 1990, the first thing we did was standardize construction materials and installation methods. All HydroCourt systems are installed by company-trained and company-authorized contractors using the latest technology—such as laser, guided grading equipment—to ensure level, consistent courts.

For more than 25 years, we’ve greatly refined the HydroCourt sub-surface irrigation system for Har-Tru courts. Our concept provides a highly uniform playing surface with little to no maintenance.

HydroCourt uses a two-layer system, where the layers are separated by a geotextile filter fabric. The layer below this fabric is made of 3/4" or 1/2" clean drain rock. The layer above acts as a “wicking” layer and pulls moisture from the clean stone reservoir below. This top layer is a stone screening as well (1/4" to dust).

Water introduced underneath the court is evenly dispersed across the playing surface through 6 independently controlled cells, resulting in highly uniform, consistent playing conditions all day, every day.

It’s a proven system that works from the deserts of California and the Middle East to the frozen winters of Canada.

It’s also preferred in rainy climates such as the Pacific Northwest. HydroCourt is the choice of the most discerning clients across the globe, including the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.
