Trying to identify my diving board base.

I am trying to identify the manufacturer and/or any other information about my diving board base.

It's the same style as in the attached picture, but I can find no information about this type of base. My base is closer to the deck, but it has the same central steel tube (filled with concrete), steel triangular frame, and steel tube for the fulcrum and rear bolt mounting. The pool is an old Sylvan, renovated at some point (there's a Sylvan junction box under the diving board for the light).

The board itself is a lot newer than the base - 10ft Inter-Fab Duro-Beam manufactured in 2011 (according to the sticker under the board).

The base is fine, apart from some surface rust and deeper rust around the rear bolts. I've painted it and done some basic maintenance: replaced the soft washers between the rear bolts and board, added a rubber cover for the fulcrum. This is more out of curiosity than anything. Any help appreciated!

The vast majority of residential diving boards, historically were made by S.R. Smith and Inter-Fab. S.R. Smith acquired the assets of Inter-Fab and is the only maker of residential diving boards available. There are boutique board makers, but S.R. Smith is about it.

Duraflex is the leading maker of commercial pool diving boards.

This picture has many similarities to the S.R. Smith and the inter-fab line, but not the current lineup.

Your best bet would be to reach out to S.R. Smith and see if they can help identify your legacy product. 1 (800) 824-4387 [email protected]

Thanks. I know what the board itself is: 10ft Inter-Fab Duro-Beam. Much newer than the base (2011 manufacture date according to the sticker). It's the base I am wondering about.

I've found two images of the same base design. The attached and another in a public pool. Very old. I suspect it dates back to when the pool was installed, which was at least the as far back as the 90s but could be older than that.
