More Information

Our 1/2" Mega Gym Mats are constructed of highly durable and shock-absorbent recycled rubber. They are designed to support athletes during high-intensity workouts, and protect flooring from heavy equipment and free weights. These heavy-duty rubber mats can be used for full-surface gym flooring by butting them together, and are also light enough to be used as portable gym mats, stall mats or multi-purpose rubber mats for workshops, garages, utility rooms, and patios. 1/2" Mega Gym Mats provide a long lasting rubber flooring solution that is safe to use indoors and outdoors and are guaranteed to last for years to come.

Recommended Uses: Has been used successfully in weight rooms, ice rinks, as commercial and home gym mats, fitness mats, exercise mats, locker rooms, golf course traffic areas, any place where spike protection is needed, in baseball dugouts, in high-impact cardio areas for shock absorption, dog care facilities, kennels, as horse stall mats, and any place where a low priced durabler rubber mat solution would be useful.

Please note: You may receive slightly more material than ordered (typically an extra inch or two) to account for cutting tolerances and natural expansion and contraction. This ensures your roll or mat is never too short.
