{"product_id":"champro-brute-nbz-screen","title":"Champro BRUTE Screen NBZ","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe Champro BRUTE NBZ Screen is a uniquely shaped pitcher's protective screen built for coaches and programs at every level of baseball and softball who need a versatile barrier that protects pitchers throwing either overhand or underhand during batting practice -- a critical feature for programs that train both baseball pitchers and fastpitch or slowpitch underhand pitchers from the same equipment. The distinctive Z-shaped frame design creates a shielded throwing path regardless of release point, the reversible configuration accommodates both right-handed and left-handed pitchers, and the durable 1.5-inch, 13.5-gauge steel tube frame with extra-strength 60-ply envelope-style PE net delivers the same heavy-duty protective performance as the rest of the BRUTE screen lineup. Available at SPC Sports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe unique Z-shaped frame geometry is the defining feature of the NBZ -- unlike a standard L-screen designed exclusively for overhand baseball pitching motions, the Z shape creates a protective shield that accommodates both overhand and underhand throwing motions, making the NBZ the practical single-screen solution for programs and facilities that train baseball pitchers throwing overhand alongside fastpitch and slowpitch pitchers throwing underhand without needing separate screens for each throwing motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe reversible design allows the screen to be flipped and repositioned to provide full pitcher protection whether the batting practice pitcher throws right-handed or left-handed, eliminating the need for a coach or facility to own and store separate screens for each combination of throwing hand and throwing motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe protective shield design maintains a clear sight line and throwing lane to the plate regardless of whether the pitcher is delivering overhand or underhand, so the screen protects the pitcher's body from line drives and batted balls coming back up the middle without blocking the pitcher's view of the batter or interfering with the pitcher's throwing motion during delivery at either release point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe durable 1.5-inch, 13.5-gauge steel tube frame provides substantially more structural mass and rigidity than lighter-gauge training screens, giving the BRUTE NBZ the stability to stay planted and upright through the repeated high-velocity line drive contact that pitchers face during intensive batting practice sessions without tipping, shifting, or losing its shape over a full season of heavy daily use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe extra-strength 60-ply envelope-style PE net is engineered with significantly more material density than standard single or low-ply training nets, delivering the durability to absorb constant high-speed line drive contact without tearing, stretching out of shape, or developing weak points that compromise the screen's protective function for the pitcher standing behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eEasy pushpin assembly makes the BRUTE NBZ fast to set up and break down without tools, so coaches and facility staff can deploy the screen at the start of batting practice and pack it away at the end without complicated assembly procedures or hardware requiring a wrench or screwdriver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eAt 46.30 lbs the BRUTE NBZ delivers the substantial mass needed to stay planted and stable through repeated high-velocity line drive contact regardless of the pitcher's release point, making it best suited for setup at a fixed batting cage or practice location for a season rather than frequent transport between multiple locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis product comes with a 1 Year Manufacturer Warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eFor more baseball and softball training accessories, browse the full \u003ca class=\"underline underline underline-offset-2 decoration-1 decoration-current\/40 hover:decoration-current focus:decoration-current\" href=\"https:\/\/spcsports.com\/collections\/spc-sports-training\"\u003etraining collection at SPC Sports\u003c\/a\u003e.

A standard L-screen like the BRUTE L-Screen (NB183) is designed exclusively for overhand baseball pitching motions. The NBZ's unique Z-shaped frame protects pitchers throwing either overhand or underhand, making it the practical choice for programs that train both baseball pitchers and fastpitch or slowpitch underhand pitchers from a single screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eIs the NBZ reversible for both right and left-handed pitchers? Yes. The reversible design allows the screen to be flipped and repositioned to provide full pitcher protection whether the batting practice pitcher throws right-handed or left-handed, regardless of whether they are throwing overhand or underhand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eCan the NBZ be used for slowpitch and fastpitch underhand pitching? Yes. The unique Z-shaped design is specifically engineered to protect pitchers throwing underhand, making the NBZ suitable for fastpitch and slowpitch batting practice sessions in addition to overhand baseball pitching.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Champro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44486380585002,"sku":"NBZ","price":313.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/4000\/6186\/files\/h8pcpzeyzmgzsbjknttm.jpg?v=1782057672","url":"https:\/\/spcsports.com\/products\/champro-brute-nbz-screen","provider":"SPC Sports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
