SRS 10' Olympian Aluminum Board, White & Marine Blue

The S.R. Smith 10-Foot Commercial Olympian Aluminum Diving Board (White) (Part Number 66-209-510-2) is a heavy-duty, commercial-grade all-aluminum springboard engineered for municipal aquatic centers, military training dive wells, resort facilities, and high-traffic public pools requiring long-term durability and resistance to harsh weather.

Unlike wood-core or composite boards (such as the Frontier III series), the Olympian utilizes an extruded aircraft-grade aluminum alloy design that is impervious to internal moisture absorption, rot, and delamination.

Construction & Material Architecture

• Extruded Aluminum Structure: Fabricated from heat-treated, high-tensile 6000-series structural aluminum alloy extrusions engineered to endure heavy, repetitive cyclic deflection without work-hardening or fatigue failure.

• Corrosion & Moisture Immunity: Completely eliminates wood, resin laminates, and porous internal filler, preventing core wicking, rotting, mold growth, or freeze-thaw spalling in cold-climate outdoor installations.

• Surface Traction & Finish: Coated with a baked-on, electrostatically applied white epoxy/powder-coat finish embedded with a slip-resistant aggregate top tread compliant with public pool wet-deck traction codes.

• Chemical & Environmental Resistance: Resistant to airborne natatorium chloramines, intense UV exposure, pool chlorination chemicals, and coastal/saltwater atmospheres.

Dimensional & Mounting Specifications

• Nominal Length: 10'-0" (120 inches / approx. 3.05 m).

• Nominal Width: 18 inches (approx. 45.7 cm).

• Mounting Configuration: Standard commercial 2-hole rear butt-end pattern:

  • Hole Center-to-Center Spacing: 12 inches (30.5 cm).

  • Hole Diameter: Pre-drilled for 1/2" diameter heavy-duty stainless steel mounting bolts.

• Specified Fulcrum Setting (Critical): Standard factory fulcrum placement is centered 50 to 54 inches (nominally 52 inches) forward from the center of the rear mounting holes. Adherence to this dimension ensures proper mechanical spring leverage and protects the board from over-flex stresses.

• Commercial Duty Rating: Heavy-duty commercial recreational classification; maximum single-diver weight capacity of 250 lbs (113.4 kg) under standard commercial aquatic codes.

Stand Compatibility & Fulcrum Interface

• Stand Suitability: Engineered for commercial cantilever frames, steel pedestal stands, U-frame bases, and meter stands configured for 10-foot boards (e.g., S.R. Smith Steel Meter Stands, Econoline stands, and standard commercial 2-bend or 3-bend tubular frames).

• Fulcrum Protection: Requires a heavy-duty rubber fulcrum pad (1.90" to 2.375" OD rubber sleeve or clamp-on elastomer pad) secured over the stand fulcrum crossbar to prevent metal-on-metal wear, galling, and chatter during diving hurdle landings.

• Associated Mounting Hardware: Uses standard commercial mounting bolt sets (1/2" × 4-1/2" or 1/2" × 5" 304/316 stainless steel bolts, neoprene isolation washers to prevent galvanic corrosion, lock washers, and acorn nuts).

Weight and Logistics Profile

• Net Unit Weight: Approximately 50 to 58 lbs (approx. 22.7 to 26.3 kg)—noticeably lighter than wood-core composite equivalents of the same length.

• Packaged Dimensions: Heavy-duty reinforced corrugated shipping carton measuring approximately 122" L × 20" W × 4" H (approx. 310 cm × 51 cm × 10 cm).

• Packaged Shipping Weight: Approximately 62 to 72 lbs (approx. 28.1 to 32.7 kg).

• Freight Handling: Ships exclusively via LTL Freight (typically NMFC Class 70 to 85) due to the overlength package dimension exceeding 9 feet.
