1/4" Tough Mats can be easily cleaned in two ways. Maintenance for these rubber mats typically includes:
  • Vacuuming or sweeping any loose dirt, crumbs, dust, or debris from the rubber mat surface when necessary.
  • Occasional damp mopping of the matting with a mild soap and water solution. A few recommended soaps are Dawn dish detergent or Tide laundry detergent.
Note: Do not use any solvent or oil style cleaners such as Pinesol, Lysol, Murphy’s Oil Soap, WD40, paint thinner, etc. since these types of cleaners will break down the flooring over time.

Would this grip well on top of low-pile carpet?
Matt
Our Tough Mats are fairly heavy and would stay in place over a low-pile carpet for most exercises. If for some reason the mat were to move, you can place some double-sided carpet tape under the mat to keep it in place.
I am considering this product as a workout surface over my brand new carpet. Is there any chance the black mat will stain/discolor my new carpet?
Jen
If you have light colored carpet, there is potential for our Tough Mats to stain the carpet. If you are concerned that the carpet will get stained by our rubber mats, we recommend placing a plastic sheet under the mat to keep it from doing so.
Would this stain wood laminate flooring?
doug bashore
Our 1/4" 4' x 10' Tough Mats will not stain laminate flooring, but if you are still worried it might, we would recommend placing a plastic sheet between the floor and mat to keep the laminate protected.
Are your 1/4" 4 X 10 mats longer than 10 feet? The mats I bought from you previously were 10 feet 7 inches; therefore, I need the same length to lay next to the old mats.
Christopher Spells
Our 1/4" 4' x 10' Tough Mats are meant to be cut at 10' long, but since rubber can expand and contract a bit, we typically add anywhere from 6" - 12" of material to each roll to ensure that you get the 10' that you were needing. This excess can be cut so that it can fit into your space properly or cut to create the mat size you were desiring.
Can the mats be cut to fit a specific area?
unquity
You can cut our Tough Mats to fit any space with a sharp utility knife and straight edge. Cutting these mats is like cutting butter with a warm butter knife.
Are these mats heat resistant to a certain temperature?
Aaron
Our Tough Mats are made of rubber which has a melting point between 260 - 316 degrees.
I have new hardwood flooring that I'm looking to protect. Would putting the Tough Mats rubber flooring directly on top of it pose any issue? Does there need to be some type of barrier between the mat and hardwood flooring?
Gideon
Our Tough Mats will not stain hardwood flooring. If you were concerned that these rubber mats would stain your flooring, you can place a plastic sheet under the rubber to protect the wood flooring underneath.
Do these mats have an odor? If so, how strong?
Our Tough Mats will have a slight rubber smell to them. To help mitigate this smell, we recommend mopping the floor with a mild soap and water solution with a synthetic mop head mop. You will then want to make sure the room where these mats will be used is well ventilated and let the mats air dry. You may need to repeat this process to get the smell of the mats to an acceptable level.
If this mat sits on top of a wood or laminate floor, will it slip or slide if someone runs onto it?
kellie Obrien
Our Tough Mats do have some weight to them and are made of rubber, which is slip-resistant. If a person were to run onto or over the rubber mats, they would still stay in place. If for some reason the mat were to move, you could add some double-sided tape or glue under the mats to keep them in place.
I have a backyard above wood deck and I was wondering if I could put your Tough Mats over it. If yes and what kind should I use to keep it in place?
Brett Voss
You can insall our 1/4" 4' x 10' Tough Mats on an outdoor wood deck. These mats are very durable and can withstand the elements. Our rubber flooring is very slip-resistant and even more when wet. These rubber mats are also mold and mildew resistant. To keep the mats in place outdoors, we would recommend gluing them if you want a more permanent hold. You would use a polyurethane adhesive for this. If you are looking for a more temporary hold, you can use our double-sided tape.
Would this mat be acceptable for floor protection for weight lifting? Under 250 lbs.
Andrew
Our Tough Mats are durable enough for weight lifting. Depending on the amount of weight and the type of weights you are using will determine if this mat is a good fit. Our Tough Mats are fine to use with any type of plate, as the full weight of the plat is diffused when dropped on the floor. In regards to dumbbells, we recommend using dumbbells that are around 50 lbs or less on this mat. Since this is rubber is a little thin, there is potential for subfloor damage to occur. If you are looking to use heavier weights, we would recommend using one of our thicker mats.
If I lay these mats for a garage gym, can I drive/park my car over the mats? Or would that cause problems?
Jack
You can drive over our Tough Mats. If your car were to leak oil, we do recommend placing a mat over the rubber to protect it. Oil and rubber don't mix, and over time that oil can break the rubber mat down. You can use one of our Nitro Rolls or an AutoFloorGuard mat to protect the rubber flooring. The only other thing you may notice is that the rubber may move is you need to turn your wheel when you are entering and leaving your garage. This movement will only occur if the mats are not secured to the subfloor with glue.
Can they be cleaned easily, and the edges of two mats sealed together? I am looking to put these in a restaurant walk-in cooler.
Ronald Keyser
Our Tough Mats can be easily cleaned and can be sealed. To seal two mats together, we recommend using our Seam Sealer glue or our Premium Seam Sealer glue. You can also seal the small pores in the floor to make our rubber mats easier to clean with our Rubber Floor Finish and Sealer.
Can I order a larger size 6' x 10'?
The widest our rubber rolls come is 4' wide.
Are your 1/4" 4' x 10' Tough Mats thick enough for use under a squat rack station? Heavy weights may be dropped. This is in a basement that has carpet laid over concrete.
Our Tough Mats are thick enough to be used as flooring under a squat rack station. When installing these rubber mats over carpet, they work best over commercial-grade carpet. If installing over a high pile, thick padded carpet, we would recommend installing a 1/4" plywood board over the carpet or to go with one of our thicker mats.
We were wanting something for a floor in a chicken house. Something we could fold up and dump off to clean. Can we unroll and roll out the 1/4” mat, and would it lay flat?
Amanda
You can use our 1/4" 4' x 10' Tough Mats as flooring in a chicken house or coop. These rolls are very portable and can be easily rolled up and rolled out. The rubber rolls will initially be curled at the ends but will lay flat fairly quickly. After that initial installation, the roll will lay flat immediately when rolled up and rolled back out.
What is the weight of the mat?
Michael Rega
Our different sized Tough Mats weigh the following: 3' x 4' - 18 Lbs., 4' x 6' - 36 Lbs., 4' x 8' - 48 Lbs., and 4' x 10' - 60 Lbs.
Is this waterproof? Would water penetrate it?
Pete
Our 1/4" Tough Mats are water-resistant, not waterproof. These mats are somewhat porous, but the pores typically don't go through the mat, so water typically will pool on top of the mat instead of getting in the pores or going through the mat.
Could these mats be used over packed gravel? I am considering using these in an outdoor dog kennel.
Jill
Our 1/4" Tough Mats can be installed over compacted gravel. You will just need to make sure that there are no sharp rocks under the mats as they could tear the mats while in use.
I have a 600lb glute kickback machine that I want to place outside. Is this mat weatherproof ?
You can install our Tough Mats outdoors. These mats are very durable and can withstand the elements. Our rubber flooring is very slip-resistant and even more when wet. These rubber mats are also mold and mildew resistant. To keep the mats in place outdoors, we would recommend gluing them if you want a more permanent hold. You would use a polyurethane adhesive for this. If you are looking for a more temporary hold, you can use our double-sided tape.
Would this be a good option as a treadmill mat to protect vinyl plank flooring?
Kat
Our 1/4" Tough Mats are the perfect mat to use as a treadmill mat. These will provide better shock absorption for the vibration that comes from using your treadmill than the thin vinyl mats many fitness equipment manufacturers provide.
Our basement floor just got painted with epoxy. Is there any chance that this will stick to the flooring? Are there any conditions (damp, etc.) that this should not be used in?
Our 1/4" Tough Mats and all of our rubber flooring will not stick to epoxy flooring. You can use our rubber flooring in all conditions.
Can this mat be cut into strips and be used as side bumpers on my dock?
Walt
Our 1/4" Tough Mats can be cut into strips easily with a sharp utility knife and straight edge and can be used as side bumpers on a dock.
I would like to use this mat for my baby to practice crawling on - I tried to find detailed product ingredients but don't see them listed anywhere. Is there glue or other solvents or anything that could render the mats unsafe for children under 1 to crawl on?
Yael
Our 1/4" Tough Mats and all of our rubber flooring products are safe for children of all ages. Our rubber flooring is tested regularly to ensure that it is safe. If you would like the MSDS testing done on our Tough Mats, please feel free to reach out to one of our Flooring Heroes via email, chat, or phone, and they would be more than happy to send it to you.
Wondering if this mat sheds? Little specs of black coming off? Or will it remain completely intact?
Our 1/4" Tough Mats will not shed. When you get your rubber mat, there is potential for some rubber material to come off the mat. This is excess material from the production process. We try to clean the mats as thoroughly as possible, but there is always the potential for a little debris. All you would need to do is vacuum up the loose material.
Exterior use recommended???
Larry James
Our 1/4" Tough Mats can be installed outside. Keep in mind, our 1/4" Tough Mats are water-resistant, not waterproof. These mats are somewhat porous, but the pores typically don't go through the mat, so water typically will pool on top of the mat instead of getting in the pores or going through the mat.
Do you have to glue them?
VICTOR
You don't have to glue our 1/4" Tough Mats, but you can if you want a more permanent installation. If you were to glue them, we recommend using one of our polyurethane adhesives.

I have been scouring the Internet for years looking for a decent tough rubber material to use on workbench tops - can't believe that nobody sells a high-quality material pre-cut for that purpose. They installed this for flooring at my Gym, so I figured if it could stand up to that torture it could certainly protect my nice butcher-block workbenches from some hammer blows!

I purchased this mat to use as a non-slip surface on a ramp for my pet pig. It could not be a more perfect. I have tried numerous other rugs, mats, etc. and they all failed or ripped under his hooves. The tough mat was easy enough to cut to the right size and provides the perfect surface. He is so sure-footed on the ramp now, I cannot keep him off of it. Before this, he had to be coaxed with treats to use it. Now I have to coax him with treats to get him off of it.

Easy to lay, edge to edge joint very smooth and clean with no adhesive or tape, slight curl in the ends lays flat after a few days. The pieces are not exactly the same length, and not cut exactly square. So you will have some trimming if you are butting pieces end to end. Looks and feels very good. I saw the same material used in high traffic area at Taos Ski Valley, tramped on by ski boots, with no sign of wear. You need a softer mat on top to do crunches and the like! Thanks.
