Why Specify 50 mm Monofilament

Built for Speed, Contact and Stick Control

Lacrosse combines the sprint-and-cut demands of soccer with the body contact of football, and adds stick-work that requires precise ball behavior on the ground. The turf surface must deliver on all three simultaneously — and do it through seasons of multi-sport use.

Consistent Ground-Ball Behavior

A lacrosse ball hitting turf must bounce predictably — not too high, not dead. The 50 mm pile with sand and performance infill produces the controlled rebound that lets ground balls stay playable and ground passes track true across the field.

Cleat Release Under Lateral Load

Lacrosse players change direction constantly — dodging, checking, cutting to the goal. Rotational resistance must be high enough for traction but low enough that cleats release before joints absorb the twist. PE monofilament fiber density and infill composition control this balance.

Contact-Sport Impact Protection

Body checks and falls from contested ground balls generate significant impact forces. The 50 mm pile, performance infill and optional shock pad work as a system to attenuate those impacts — a consideration that matters for both player safety and field certification testing.

Product Range

Six systems for fast ball roll and multi-directional footwork

Lacrosse needs a ball that runs true across the grain and players cutting in every direction, so we specify dense monofilament at 45–60 mm with consistent tuft bind.

Performance Design

Where Ball Speed Meets Body Contact

Lacrosse is played at pace. Players sprint, check, dodge and cradle — all while managing a small rubber ball that bounces differently on artificial turf than it does on natural grass. The surface must be fast enough for transition play, soft enough for body checks, and consistent enough for ground-ball pickups that happen dozens of times per game.

The 50 mm pile height provides the infill depth needed to control ball bounce — too shallow and the ball skips unpredictably; too deep and ground balls become sluggish. Sand and performance infill work together to produce the controlled rebound that keeps the ball playable at ground level while still supporting fast footwork above.

Diamond-profile fibers resist flattening in the crease areas and midfield zones where traffic concentrates. Wave and stem profiles offer a softer underfoot feel that some programs prefer for practice surfaces or multi-sport fields shared with football and soccer.

Many lacrosse fields share with American football — particularly at the school and community level. The same 50 mm system with sand and rubber infill serves both sports, with line markings for each game tufted into the carpet during production. This dual-use capability is a strong argument for municipal and school budgets.

Lacrosse’s combination of sprint speed, stick-work and body contact places it in the same turf-performance category as football and American football — a single 50 mm system can serve all three sports on one field.

Relyir supplies the turf product with full specification documentation and works with your field-test laboratory on projects that target ASTM or equivalent performance benchmarks.

Factory Direct from Jiangsu

Eight Production Steps Under One Roof

Relyir has manufactured artificial grass in Jiangsu since 2006. Every step — from raw PE pellets to finished rolls — runs on-site, which is how we control quality and hold pricing 30–50% below international equivalents.

All eight production stages are managed in-house, eliminating the quality gaps that arise when compounding, tufting and coating happen in separate facilities. The automated sports turf line, commissioned in 2015, lifted production capacity by 150% and tightened consistency across high-volume orders.

Customization is built into the line: blade density, pile height and fiber colors are adjusted to each project’s specification, with PP + net and PU backing options. The export team has shipped to more than 500 customers across 50+ countries since 2009 and handles all documentation — from commercial invoices to certificates of origin.

Every order is produced to specification — pile height, density, blade shape and color, backing composition and roll dimensions are all configured to your project requirements.

  • Founded in 2006 — two decades of artificial grass manufacturing from Wuxi, Jiangsu.
  • 12,000 m² campus — all eight production stages managed in a single facility.
  • 2015 automation investment — sports turf line upgraded, lifting capacity by 150%.

System Build-Up

Four Layers Between Soil and Cleats

The turf roll is one component of a four-layer system. We supply the turf and share build-up guidance with every project so installers achieve the field behavior specified at design stage.

1

Stone Base

Compacted aggregate or asphalt with engineered drainage — the foundation that supports the high-speed footwork and impact loads lacrosse generates.

2

Sand Stabilizer

Silica sand, typically 20–30 kg/m², brushed into the pile to weigh the system and keep fibers upright through repeated cutting and pivoting movements.

3

Performance Infill

SBR, TPE, EPDM or organic (cork) at 8–15 kg/m² — choice depends on budget, climate and whether the field shares with other sports.

4

Shock Pad

Optional elastic layer for projects that prioritize impact absorption or share the field with American football programs that require lower G-max values.

Drainage and Crease-Area Maintenance

Every Relyir sports turf ships with perforated backing — drainage holes punched during our dedicated perforating step — so water passes through the carpet into the base layer rather than pooling on the playing surface.

Lacrosse crease areas and midfield zones see concentrated foot traffic and repeated stick contact. Regular brushing in these high-wear zones keeps fibers upright and infill evenly distributed. UV-stabilized PE fibers resist degradation under continuous sun exposure across all climate zones.

  • Perforated backing for rapid vertical drainage
  • UV-stabilized PE fibers for long-term outdoor performance
  • Sand + performance infill for consistent ball bounce behavior

Grip, Release and Durability

Lacrosse asks for dependable footing under hard cuts and a surface that releases ground balls cleanly to the scoop. Fields run large — a regulation field spans roughly 110 by 60 yards — and wear concentrates in the crease areas and midfield, where wheels of goal frames and constant cutting chew lesser surfaces. Fiber systems that reduce lower-body torque and infill spray are the current industry direction for the sport.

Questions

Lacrosse Turf FAQ

Straight answers to the questions we hear most often from contractors, coaches and facility planners working on a lacrosse field project.

Can’t find your answer?

Our technical team responds within 12 hours.

Ask Us Directly
What size field does the turf cover?

Regulation fields run about 110 by 60 yards (USA Lacrosse standard), but most facilities convert only the high-wear zones — creases, midfield and bench areas — and keep the rest multi-use. We supply to the layout you actually play on.

How does turf affect ground-ball play?

A dense, even pile lets the ball sit up predictably for clean scoops instead of skidding into the fibers. Consistent release is the gameplay quality lacrosse coaches cite most after converting.

Does lacrosse need a different turf than soccer or football?

Lacrosse uses the same 50 mm PE monofilament platform as soccer and American football. The main difference is that lacrosse ball bounce behavior is a key specification point — the small rubber ball must bounce predictably for ground-ball pickups. The same Relyir 50 mm models serve all three sports, making dual-use fields practical.

How does ball bounce differ on turf vs natural grass?

Artificial turf with proper sand and rubber infill produces a more consistent and slightly faster ball bounce than natural grass. The infill depth and fiber density control this — too little infill and the ball bounces higher; too much and it becomes sluggish. The 50 mm pile with 20–30 kg/m² sand and 8–15 kg/m² performance infill produces the controlled rebound lacrosse players expect.

Can our lacrosse field also host football and soccer?

Yes. Many school and community lacrosse fields are shared with football and soccer. The same 50 mm system with sand and rubber infill serves all three sports. Line markings for each game can be tufted into the carpet during production, or temporary paint can be applied after installation.

Is a shock pad needed for lacrosse?

Not required, but recommended if the field hosts American football or if your project targets specific impact-attenuation test values. Body checks and contested ground balls generate significant impact forces, and a shock pad reduces G-max readings while extending turf carpet life.

What roll sizes and customizations are available?

Standard rolls are 4 × 25 m or 2 × 25 m with a maximum width of 5 m. Field markings for lacrosse, football and soccer can be tufted directly into the carpet, and team logos are available on request. Blade density, pile height and fiber colors can be adjusted to project requirements.

What maintenance does a lacrosse turf field require?

Plan regular brushing to keep fibers upright — particularly in the crease areas and midfield zones where traffic concentrates. Periodic infill redistribution and top-up, seam inspections before each season, and decompaction in high-wear areas keep the field performing through its service life. Relyir provides maintenance guidance with every installation package.

Do you provide free samples before we order?

Yes. Samples are free of charge — you only cover the shipping. Standard swatches are 20 × 20 cm and we typically send three to four models per project so you can compare pile heights and colors side by side. Standard samples ship via DHL or FedEx within 4–6 days; custom-matched samples add 10–15 days of production.

Do you handle shipping and export paperwork?

Yes. Choose between two options: delivered to your destination port, with export customs clearance in China, international ocean freight and cargo insurance included in one all-inclusive cost; or delivered to a Chinese port if you prefer to work with your own freight forwarder. Other delivery arrangements can be accommodated on request.

What is the minimum order size?

Orders range from single rolls for smaller installations to full container loads for large developments. Roll sizes of 2 m, 4 m and 5 m widths (25 m length) cover most layouts, and custom dimensions are produced to order. Volume pricing applies as order size increases.
