SporTurf FastGrass AT740 Artificial Grass
Sporturf™ FastGrass AT740 (also marketed as FastGrass 40) is a premium, non-infilled indoor and outdoor athletic turf engineered for extreme durability, true ball response, and athlete safety. It uses an advanced 50/50 hybrid material blend—52% polyethylene slit-film stalk fibers combined with 48% texturized nylon thatch secondary fibers. This configuration merges the stiff, realistic ball-rolling predictability of a classic nylon court with the soft, anti-abrasive cushioning of modern polyethylene. Gym developers rely heavily on AT740 for heavy-duty commercial weight rooms, sprint tracks, and multi-lane agility zones. The dense nylon thatch layer effortlessly absorbs the severe grinding friction of heavy, weighted push-sleds and tire flips without flattening out over time. Used to build premium, high-traction soccer complex fields (such as installations for professional clubs like the Milwaukee Wave). The soft polyethylene components prevent severe turf burns and skin abrasions when players execute sliding tackles or dives.

Built For Natural Landscape Performance
Sporturf™ FastGrass™ AT740 (also marketed as Fast Grass 40 or Trainer's Choice) is a heavy-duty, non-rubber-infilled synthetic turf system designed primarily for indoor sports arenas, functional fitness centers, and highly adaptable multi-use event spaces. Engineered with a 52% Polyethylene / 48% Nylon fiber blend, it merges the stiff, directional ball-rolling accuracy of a traditional nylon field with the forgiving impact softness of a modern polyethylene rubber-filled pitch. Because the system requires zero crumb rubber infill, it is heavily favored for high-velocity indoor soccer arenas like the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena (home to the Milwaukee Wave). Players can execute hard slide-tackles, plant cleats, and control ball physics without kicking up loose rubber dust or fine particle clouds into the indoor air. Due to the option of integrating factory-sewn 4-inch or 8-inch hook-and-loop Velcro seams, AT740 functions perfectly as a portable athletic floor. For instance, venues like the Kay Yeager Coliseum lay out the full turf field for temporary football or soccer tournaments, then rapidly roll it back up to expose the underlying slab for hockey games, graduations, or concerts.

Recommended Applications
Sporturf™ FastGrass™ AT740 is widely specified across multiple commercial and recreational sectors due to its hybrid 52% Polyethylene / 48% Nylon non-infill design. Stiff nylon fibers provide the structural strength needed to resist the high friction heat of heavy metal workout sleds (Prowlers) without melting or tearing. Gym owners install it in long sprint lanes with a 5mm or 8mm integrated foam pad underlayment. This setup dampens sound and absorbs joint shock during plyometric jumps, ladder drills, and heavy tire-flip routines. It can be built with heavy-duty hook-and-loop Velcro seams along the roll edges. Multi-use exhibition centers (like the Kay Yeager Coliseum) roll out the entire turf field for seasonal indoor football or soccer tournaments, then quickly roll it back up into storage to reveal the concrete base for concerts, trade shows, or graduations. The non-directional texturized pile ensures a perfectly flat plane, preventing erratic baseball hops.

Installation & Care Notes
Sporturf™ FastGrass™ AT740 installations are highly specialized procedures designed exclusively for indoor concrete subfloors or outdoor engineered stone bases. Because this 52% Polyethylene / 48% Nylon turf contains an integrated thatch layer that requires zero loose rubber or sand infill, the installation must be executed with extreme mechanical precision. Without loose infill to weigh the carpet down, any installation errors will immediately manifest as dangerous ripples, shifting lanes, or bubbling seams. The underlying concrete slab must be fully cured (minimum 28 days), shot-blasted or diamond-ground to remove contaminants, and vacuumed completely dust-free. Installers conduct moisture vapor emissions testing; levels must not exceed 3 lbs per 1,000 sq. ft. A premium, low-VOC exterior-grade polyurethane turf adhesive is spread uniformly using a 3/16" x 3/16" x 3/16" V-notched trowel.
- Professional base preparation recommended
- Use appropriate infill for the application
- Brush fibers periodically to maintain appearance
- Rinse as needed for dust, pets, or debris
- Confirm drainage needs before installation
Warranty & Availability
SporTurf™ provides a standard 8-year limited manufacturer warranty for the FastGrass AT740 series. This coverage focuses strictly on manufacturing flaws, material degradation, and extreme ultraviolet (UV) color fading. Because FastGrass AT740 is an indoor/outdoor non-infill sports turf featuring a unique dual-fiber blend—combining standard polyethylene fibers with a dense, texturized nylon thatch—the warranty parameters dictate specific environmental, installation, and care guidelines to keep the protection active. Coverage applies if the synthetic turf blades rot, fray, split, or structurally fall apart under normal, intended athletic use. Protects against severe, uneven color loss caused by sunlight exposure. SporTurf guarantees the turf will maintain its color stability within industry-standard tolerances throughout the 8-year window. Covers factory defects where individual fiber bundles pull away or delaminate entirely from the primary backing layer under standard mechanical stress.

Is SporTurf FastGrass AT740 Right For Your Project?
SporTurf™ FastGrass AT740 is a highly versatile, non-infill synthetic turf engineered primarily for high-intensity indoor athletic training, commercial gym flooring, and specialized agility zones. Because it combines a low-profile polyethylene face yarn with a dense, texturized nylon thatch layer, it can withstand extreme friction and foot traffic without needing loose sand or rubber infill. This is the most common project use for AT740. Gym designers use it to create long, dedicated indoor lanes where athletes push and pull heavy metal weight sleds (Prowlers). The built-in nylon thatch acts as a buffer, preventing the metal sled runners from tearing or melting the backing [FastGrass AT740]. Fitness centers use AT740 across wide-open training floors for high-impact functional training, including kettlebell workouts, tire flips, plyometrics, and intensive boot camps. Facilities install AT740 in hitting tunnels and batting cages. The dense pile handles the constant twisting and grinding of a batter’s pivot foot without shedding fibers or creating low spots.
