'''Universal Nets'''
!
*These nets are designed to clamp directly onto a table top of any brand.
* Extra wide clamp openings allow these nets to fit tables with thick framing in the center area.
* Universal net sets usually need to be removed before moving or storing the table.
'''Special or Dedicated Net and Post Sets'''
!
* These are designed to fit specific roll-away style tables, and they are attached to the table frame.
* They can often be left on the table during storage or roll-away position.
* Typically, they offer less adjustability.
'''Tournament Approved Table Tennis Net Sets'''
!
* As the name implies, these are table tennis tournament approved nets.
* They are 72-inches long.
* They include features such as adjustable net height, a cord through the top of the net with adjustable tension, and 6-inch extension beyond the side of the table.
'''Home/Recreational Table Tennis Net Sets'''
!
* These sets usually lack some of the features and adjustability of tournament nets.
* They use thinner, lighter bracket materials and are not suited for repeated removal and installation on the table.
'''Brackets'''
!
* Wider net brackets can add both to the stability of the net and the table itself by more securely holding the table halves together.
* Most clamps utilize a C-Clamp bracket.
* '''I Rollaway tables use these clamps universally. They attach in the thin space between tables and use a metal bolt that tightens onto a metal strip on the surface of the table.
* '''Frame Brackets''' Clamps can't be used with these types of frames. They conveniently let the net remain in place when you fold up or store the table.
