What Is Baseball Fence Topper Made of?
Our Poly Cap, Fence Guard Safety Topper, and Safety Top Caps are made of weather-treated and UV-stabilized high-density polyethylene.
How Do I Know How Much Fence Topper To Buy?
You will need to know the length of the fence first to know how much fence topper to buy. Check out our Outfield Fence Topper Calculator to figure out the length of fence topper you will need on your grand slam or outfield fence. Add the length of the outfield fence with the two side fences, and that will be the total number of fence toppers needed for the entire baseball, softball, or little league fence needed.
Can I Just Use Drain Pipe?
Poly-Cap and drain pipe are both made from high-density polyethylene; however, the biggest difference will be that the poly-cap is weather treated and UV protected. Because of these treatments, the poly-cap will last much longer than the drain pipe.
What are the differences between the 3 types of baseball fence topper?
The first kind is Poly-Cap. It is made from UV-stabilized, weather-resistant high-density polyethylene. This is the most popular option and will fit any chain link fence. The corrugated HDPE round shape is easily installed and can be fastened with ties for more security.
The second type is Fence Guard. It has a sleeker shape compared to the poly-cap. It also comes in more colors to match any team or school. The Fence Guard comes in three types; Lite, Standard, and Premium. They are all made from the same UV-stabilized HDPE, and the only difference is the thickness they come in.
The third type is Safety Top Cap. It offers the sleekest design. The fence topper can be attached via the included hog rings.
Can I order custom colors?
No, we offer a set range of standard colors. These are designed to meet the most common team and school needs.
Are They UV Protected?

What material is Poly-Cap made from?
Poly-Cap is made of polyethylene that has been treated with UV light to make it strong enough to be outside.
How long does Poly-Cap last, and is there a warranty?
The amount of time Poly-Cap lasts depends on how much sun it gets, the weather, and how it is used but with the right care, it should last between 5 and 7 years. Extreme weather and a lot of use can shorten its life, but simple care, like rinsing it off with water, can make it last longer. There is a two-year limited warranty on Poly-Cap toppers.
Do you have a comparison chart to help choose the right option?
Poly-Cap comes in set lengths and colors, but we do have a helpful resource article that compares different fence topper options. Check out our guide or Contact Us with any questions!
