Searching for parts for your Funtek trampoline?
I have been prompted to write this article by the increase of phone enquiries I have had regarding this brand of round trampoline.
I personally haven’t ever jumped on one, I have seen them in a sports store in a box and there is one I can see in a back garden near where I live. Something I do know is that spare parts are not available in Australia and this I find appalling service by the sports stores that have been selling them to their Australian customers. Especially since the Funtek trampolines are not sold at a cheap disposable price like a lot of department stores who also don’t give customers access to spare parts.
Where can I find authentic Funtek parts?
As you are likely aware your trampoline is an American brand and as far as I can tell from the online searches I and customers have done there are no authentic replacement parts available in Australia. They can be purchased in the US. With the way the AUD is against the USD along with the added cost of freight to get branded Funtek parts to you here in Australia from the USA is ridiculous.
So with all that said how can I potentially help you?
If you are ok to not have authentic parts then we are likely to be able to help you - and that said I believe our parts are made of materials better suited to the Australian climate.
Funtek Trampoline Safety Net
The netting is the part I have had the most enquiries about and the most frustration people have had with the trampoline. We don’t stock the exact net but our standard net does fit both the 10ft and 12ft trampolines. I am unsure if they have an 8ft or any other bigger sizes.
Our net is a completely different design but when combined with buying the poles as well they will attach easily onto your Funtek legs. If there is a 14ft sized funtek you will need to count the number of "U" shaped legs - if you have 5 or 6 we can help but if you only have 4 I am sorry you will need to continue hunting elsewhere for a suitable net and I really don't know who I can direct you to.
You can view our matching nets for the 10ft and 12ft round at the left of this text.
Jumping Mat
This I don’t know if we have a compatible match but the surest way is to use our mat calculator which you can find at this link. Trampoline mats across brands are the hardest part to typically match but our calculator does give a spring change option as well.
Safety Padding
The Funtek brand spring cover padding does have holes in it where the net poles slot into the frame which would mean cutting holes in any brand pads you would buy – which I really don’t recommend unless you have a means to stabilise the PVC so it doesn’t tear. If you are in need to change your net then getting pads at the same time would be a good move and our pads will then fit without any problems.
