Product Overview
The Multi person Outdoor Seesaw for Fitness redefines traditional playground equipment by combining social interaction with physical activity. Designed to accommodate multiple users simultaneously, this innovative seesaw promotes collaborative play while enhancing balance, coordination, and core strength in children aged 5 to 12. Unlike conventional single-pair seesaws, this model features an extended beam structure that supports up to 4 children at once, with a total maximum weight capacity of 90 kg – ideal for group play in various outdoor settings. Crafted with high-quality materials and adhering to ASTM F1487 safety standards, this fitness-oriented seesaw ensures durability and security for endless hours of active fun. Whether in community parks, schoolyards, or backyard playgrounds, it transforms ordinary playtime into an engaging fitness experience that encourages teamwork and healthy exercise habits.
Features
Durable Construction
The seesaw's frame is constructed from heavy-gauge galvanized steel that resists rust and corrosion, even after prolonged exposure to rain, sunlight, and extreme temperatures. The beam undergoes a special powder-coating process that provides an extra layer of protection against chipping and fading, ensuring vibrant color retention for up to 5 years. The seats are made from UV-resistant HDPE material, which is not only lightweight but also free from splinters, cracks, and peeling – common issues with wooden alternatives. All hardware components use 304 stainless steel fittings, salt-spray tested to guarantee rust-free performance for extended periods.
Safety Enhancements
Safety is paramount in the design of this multi-person seesaw. Each seat is equipped with a non-slip surface and high backrest to prevent accidental slips during movement. The fulcrum point features a precision-engineered pivot mechanism with sealed bearings that ensure smooth, controlled motion while minimizing pinch points. Rubber bumpers are strategically placed at both ends of the beam to absorb impact and reduce noise, protecting both the equipment and users during play. The entire structure sits on a stable base with anchor points, allowing secure installation to prevent tipping or shifting during use.
Fitness-Oriented Design
Beyond traditional seesaw functionality, this model incorporates fitness elements that engage multiple muscle groups. The balanced weight distribution requires users to maintain core stability throughout the motion, while the need to coordinate movements with peers enhances proprioception and motor skills. The seat height is optimized at 45 cm from the ground to ensure easy access for children of varying heights while maintaining proper leverage for effective fitness benefits. The beam length of 240 cm provides ample spacing between seats, allowing comfortable movement without interference between users.
