Seventy-seven years of not cutting corners.
The best trampoline is the one that lasts the longest — and the best evidence is a maker that has. This is the long answer: the machines, the materials and the habits behind a trampoline built to be handed down.
Why do Mr Trampoline trampolines last?
Why Mr Trampoline lasts starts with the warranty we stand behind:
30 years on the frame, 8 years on the bounce bed if you re-coat it every 3 years with our rubberised paint, and 5 years on rubber surrounds.
Beds are hand-woven in Carnegie; frames are hot-dip galvanised Australian steel with replaceable springs, clips, beds and surrounds — so the trampoline is maintained in service, not thrown away.
We make four standard backyard sizes (Family through Olympic Elite, up to 114 springs on Olympic Elite).
Buying a kit is not buying labour: we manufacture in Carnegie; install is DIY, your builder, or ask us — nationally we can usually put you in touch with an installer who’s happy to do the work.
Kits ship Australia-wide by forklift or depot pickup; parcel parts use ordinary freight. Full terms live on our warranty page.

“My parents trampoline was purchased from Mr Trampoline 50 years ago and is still going strong. Mine is 35 years old and my daughter has just got one for my grandchildren…”
From NACA Langley to your lawn
A NACA engineer's idea
Lionel Duffin encounters the trampoline while working at NACA Langley — the U.S. aeronautics agency that became NASA — and brings the idea home to Melbourne.
Steelfast builds Australia's first
Duffin’s Steelfast Engineering builds Australia’s first trampoline — and a weaving loom improvised from a Malvern Star bicycle frame, a Westinghouse washing-machine drum and a go-kart clutch. Roughly seventy years of service later, that loom still weaves in our factory.
The Carnegie factory
Production moves to Dandenong Road, Carnegie — where every Mr Trampoline is still made by hand today.
Steelfast + Mr Trampoline
The two names in Australian trampoline making join under one roof, combining Steelfast’s manufacturing with the Mr Trampoline name.
BOUNCEinc opens on our beds
Australia’s first trampoline park opens jumping on Carnegie-made mats — and an industry follows.
R&D never stops
An automated-loom research project with RMIT, exports to Denmark — including a 35-metre fast-track bed — and the same promise as 1949: every part replaceable, forever.
What your hands would find
High Tenacity yarn
Twisted in-house and hand-strung on our looms. No stitching.
The weave up close
Every mat is woven and inspected by hand in Carnegie.
Australian Steel
Used throughout our frames to ensure they last generations.
11-inch springs
Huge high-tensile galvanised springs — up to 114 of them — give the repeated deep, soft bounce a short spring never can for decades.
Stainless hanger clips
The clips that hold your bed are stainless steel and re-used forever — when a bed retires, the same clips string the next one.
Repair, don't replace
Re-coat your bed once every three years — re-tie broken strings and your bed will last a generation.
Everything on your trampoline can be renewed
- Beds — re-woven or replaced; re-coating every three years keeps them springing
- Springs — galvanised 11-inch, available individually or by the set
- Hanger clips — stainless steel, re-used from bed to bed, forever
- Padding & rubber surrounds — made to your frame, replaceable any time
- Frames — hot-dip galvanised Australian steel, built for all conditions
- Frame components & fittings — every last piece, from our factory shelves
