Powr-Line^® Portable Telescopic Volleyball System
Application: Floor sleeves are not an option and end use is Competitive Volleyball (College, High School, International, etc.)
Specify No. 01995-000 for a pair of portable uprights
Specify floor anchors — see options below.

Proven in world class competition around the globe! Researched, engineered and manufactured by Porter to meet the demands of the highest level of play with maximum safety, quick set-up and easy storage. Porter’s Powr-Line^® is a high-strength lightweight aluminum volleyball system, which allows years of maintenance-free championship performance. This system is also available with optional center uprights (specify 01996-000 or 01976-100) for adjacent court layouts.

The modern, compact T-shaped base is designed to hold all of Porter’s 3-1/2" OD standards and provides a three-point, tripod support with an upright sleeve and tubular gusset to eliminate the need for additional cables or bracing. This great combination is designed to provide remarkable stability and safety. Each base must be secured with two heavy-duty floor anchors to accommodate the net tension required for today’s competition volleyball. The base assembly is also provided with two, 3" diameter, rigid casters for ease of tipping, transporting and storing the unit.

Porter’s Powr-Line^® system features telescopic uprights, which glide easily up and down, making precision height adjustments a breeze for any net height required. A heavy-duty sheave on top of uprights reduces cable drag and undue tension on the entire system. An internal counter-balance spring system allows easy, accurate adjustability. Porter’s exclusive pressure lock T-handle locks the upright into place at the appropriate net height, thereby eliminating inaccurate or fixed heights and awkward pin settings. Net height stickers are included to achieve regulation height settings every time.

Our Powr-Winch^® net tensioning mechanism is self-locking and designed to minimize wear and tear on the entire system. The Powr-Winch^® features a positive disc brake release, which makes tensioning the net safe and simple. Porter's tension strap has a quick-release snap hook to eliminate cable wrapping directly on the winch drum. This feature prevents kinking and fraying, thereby adding to the life expectancy of the net.

All portable volleyball systems may be used with optional judge’s stands and full padding to meet all requirements for competition and player safety.

• Telescopic uprights for simple height adjustment and no obstructed view from judge's stand.
• Extruded aluminum uprights for ease of handling and quick set-up.
• Compact T-shaped steel base provides superior stability and mobility while maintaining a safe, sleek profile.
