Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between a ribbon window net and a mesh window net?
A: A ribbon net uses flat woven webbing strips for construction, while a mesh net uses a finer open-weave material. Ribbon nets are required by many oval track classes including Modified and Dirt Late Model. Mesh nets are common in road racing and some other applications. Check your rulebook for which style is required.
Q: What racing classes require a window net?
A: Most circle track and oval racing classes require a window net for driver safety. This includes IMCA Modified, Dirt Late Model, Super Late Model, Stock Car, and many others. Always verify exact specifications with your sanctioning body rulebook.
Q: How is the 726004 mounted to the roll cage?
A: The 726004 mounts to the door bar of the roll cage using the included straps. The top of the net typically mounts to the door bar or window frame hoop and the bottom to the lower door bar.
Q: Does the SFI 27.1 certification expire?
A: SFI 27.1 window net certifications typically expire after a set period from manufacture, usually two years. Check the SFI tag on the net for the expiration date and replace before it expires to maintain legal certification.
Q: Is the 726004 the right size for my car?
A: The 726004 measures 18 inches tall by 21 inches wide. Measure your window opening before ordering to confirm this is the correct size for your application. RaceQuip also offers other sizes for different window openings.
Q: What is the warranty on the 726004?
A: RaceQuip covers the 726004 under their standard limited manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
Q: Can this net be used for road racing?
A: The 726004 ribbon net can be used in road racing applications where a ribbon-style net is accepted by the sanctioning body. Verify with your series rules as some road racing classes specify mesh nets.
Q: Does the net come pre-assembled or does it require assembly?
A: The 726004 comes ready to install with mounting straps included. No assembly is required beyond attaching the straps to the roll cage.
