GeeTramp® Trampolines have been a trusted brand in Australia for almost 16 years with many coastal customers recommending them to their friends and neighbours.
Main Frame Pieces
The Galvanized finish provides long-term protection
Optional black powder coated galvanized frames (Black Edition) available provides another layer of protection against rust
We have had very little recorded problems regarding rust to main frame components
GeeTramp frames are 2-2.5mm thick (depending on size) and 50-60mm in diameter (depending on size)
We have customers who are ordering new parts after 10+ years in coastal areas.
Springs
Gold finish springs (on standard and high bounce models) can last up to 7 years in coastal areas.
Australian Galvanized spring option for larger 3 rectangle trampolines (9x14ft, 10x17ft, 14x16ft) are also beneficial in coastal areas for longevity.
Australian Galvanized springs have longer life protection than gold springs for rust.
The Australia Galvanised springs do cost more up front however you may be replacing springs more regularly with the Gold finish springs.
The trade-off is that gold springs are cheaper but have a shorter lifespan
Mat Triangles
Our mat triangles have the same finish as gold springs, but may be the quickest item to rust on your trampoline.
Moisture can get trapped between the black material tab and the steel triangle causing higher rates of rusting.
Marine grade 316 stainless steel would last longer however it is not available due to high costs.
You can minimize rust by squirting oil into the mat tabs from time to time.
You can find that replacing your jumping mat is easier if many triangles rust out, as the triangles are difficult and time consuming to replace.
Our replacement triangles are available in packs of 10 from our Web & Warehouse Stockist.
General Comment on Salt Air near the Beach:
Living close to the sea means items may need to be replaced more regularly or upgraded to marine grade materials. GeeTramp Trampoline components provide a good compromise, better than the standard trampoline but not marine grade or marine grade cost.
