ABCMT43/W | Welded Netting Sleeve – Per Metre

Specialist Pool Cover Component

As a retailer of hot tub spare parts and pool equipment, I’m offering this welded netting sleeve sold per metre. This specialized component is designed for use with Certikin floating blanket systems and pool cover applications requiring secure, enclosed fastening solutions.

What is a Welded Netting Sleeve?

A welded netting sleeve is a tubular mesh fabric construction with welded seams, creating an enclosed channel or pocket. In pool cover applications, these sleeves serve multiple purposes including housing foam inserts, creating reinforced edges, or providing channels for threading ropes and cables through cover systems.

Key Features

Welded Construction Heat-welded seams provide superior strength compared to sewn alternatives, with no stitching to deteriorate or unravel over time.

Mesh Design Open netting structure allows water drainage while maintaining structural integrity and flexibility.

Sold Per Metre Purchase the exact length required for your specific application, avoiding waste and controlling costs.

Durable Material UV-resistant polymer construction withstands continuous outdoor exposure and pool chemical environments.

Common Applications

Floating Blanket Edges Creates reinforced perimeter edges on Certikin floating blanket systems, providing structure and attachment points.

Foam Insert Housing Encloses foam cylinders or rods, keeping them securely positioned along cover edges or joins.

Cable Channels Provides a protective sleeve for threading perimeter cables through winter cover systems.

Cover Reinforcement Strengthens high-stress areas on pool covers, preventing tearing and extending cover lifespan.

Material Advantages

Water Drainage The mesh structure allows water to pass through freely, preventing water accumulation inside the sleeve.

Flexibility Remains pliable in cold weather, allowing easy handling during winter cover installation and removal.

Chemical Resistance Unaffected by chlorine, bromine, pH adjusters, and other pool chemicals encountered during normal use.

UV Stability Inhibitors prevent degradation from continuous sun exposure throughout the swimming season.

Working with Netting Sleeves

Cutting to Length Use sharp scissors or a hot knife to cut cleanly. Heat-sealing cut ends prevents fraying at the mesh edges.

Insert Installation Thread foam rods or other inserts through the sleeve before attaching to the cover system for easier installation.

Attachment Methods Can be sewn, heat-welded, or mechanically fastened to cover materials depending on application requirements.

End Finishing Seal or close sleeve ends to prevent foam or cable inserts from sliding out during use.

Certikin System Compatibility

Floating Blankets Designed specifically for Certikin floating blanket systems where edge reinforcement and buoyancy are required.

Aquablade Systems Compatible with Aquablade cover components for creating robust, professional-grade installations.

Modular Connections Facilitates joining of modular cover sections in larger or irregularly shaped pool applications.

Custom Solutions Adaptable for specialized cover requirements unique to specific pool configurations.

Installation Considerations

Foam Sizing Ensure foam inserts fit properly within the sleeve – not too tight to prevent insertion, not too loose to slide freely.

Positioning Plan sleeve placement carefully before permanent attachment to ensure optimal performance and appearance.

Secure Ends Close sleeve ends properly to maintain insert position and prevent water or debris entering the channel.

Stress Points Reinforce areas where sleeves attach to cover material, as these points experience higher tension during use.

Maintenance

Regular Inspection Check sleeves periodically for damage, particularly at attachment points and high-stress areas.

Keep Clean Rinse to remove debris, algae, or chemical residue that could degrade the material or clog the mesh.

Foam Condition If housing foam inserts, verify the foam remains in good condition and hasn’t compressed or deteriorated.

Seasonal Care Clean and dry thoroughly before off-season storage to prevent mildew and extend service life.

Calculating Requirements

Measure the total length where sleeves are needed, typically around cover perimeters or along join lines. For rectangular floating blankets, calculate the perimeter and add extra for overlaps or connection points. Irregularly shaped pools require careful measurement of each section. Ordering additional length provides material for future repairs or modifications.

Custom Cover Applications

Edge Buoyancy Housing foam inserts along cover edges creates buoyancy that keeps perimeters floating while the centre rests on the water.

Section Joining Creates neat, professional connections between modular cover panels in large pool installations.

Weight Distribution When housing heavier inserts, helps distribute weight evenly along cover edges for balanced performance.

Protection Shields cables or ropes from direct contact with cover material, reducing wear and extending component life.

Repair and Replacement

Welded netting sleeves are essential for maintaining Certikin floating blanket systems. When existing sleeves show signs of deterioration, UV damage, or mechanical failure, replacement restores full functionality. The per-metre availability makes targeted repairs economical, allowing replacement of damaged sections without purchasing excessive material.

Professional Pool Cover Component

This welded netting sleeve represents a specialized component for professional-grade pool cover systems. The welded construction and mesh design provide the unique combination of strength, drainage, and flexibility required in demanding pool applications. Whether maintaining existing Certikin systems or creating custom cover solutions, this sleeve delivers the performance and durability needed for reliable long-term service.
