Description

Gym & Fitness FlooringSKU Rmco-WLM-12018012-BK

A big, dense rubber mat that protects your floor where the heavy lifting happens. Each mat measures 1.2m x 1.8m, enough room to stand, lift and set weights down, and comes in 12mm or 17mm thickness. The shock-absorbent rubber cushions dropped dumbbells and plates, cuts impact noise and stops weights bouncing and rolling away.

12 or 17 mmthickness
2 in 1reversible surface

Lay one mat as a single lifting station, or butt several tightly together to cover a whole free-weight area. The mat is reversible, so you choose a wide ribbed finish or a textured finish, and the non-porous rubber means sweat and spills sit on the surface to be wiped away instead of soaking in.

Why lifters choose this mat

Protects the floor underneath
Shock-absorbent rubber takes the impact when weights are set down or dropped, protecting concrete, timber and tiled subfloors from cracks, dents and chips.
Safer when weights hit the deck
Dropped weights bounce and roll less on rubber than on a hard floor, so they stay where you put them and away from other people's feet.
Quieter training
The dense rubber deadens the bang of plates and dumbbells, reducing noise for neighbours, members and anyone working in the rooms below.
Reversible, two finishes
Lay it wide-ribbed side up for a classic weight-room look, or flip it to the textured side. Either face can be used as the top surface.
Sweat cannot soak in
Non-porous rubber keeps sweat, water and chalk on the surface, so the mat stays hygienic and is quick to wipe, vacuum or hose down.
Heavy enough to stay put
At 26kg (12mm) or 40kg (17mm) per mat, it lies flat as a loose-lay mat with no adhesive, and butts tightly against its neighbours to build larger areas.

Where it works best

  • Commercial gym free-weight areas
  • Dumbbell and kettlebell zones
  • Deadlift and barbell stations
  • Under squat racks and benches
  • Personal training studios
  • School, college and university weight rooms
  • Sports club and team training rooms
  • Home and garage gyms

Choosing the right thickness

Size Weight Best for
120 x 180 cm x 12 mm 26 kg Dumbbell areas, benches, machine footprints and general weight training
120 x 180 cm x 17 mm 40 kg Heavy free weights, barbell work and areas where plates are set down hard. The higher level of floor protection.

Rule of thumb: one mat covers 2.16 m². Two mats butted side by side give a 2.4m x 1.8m area, wide enough for a standard 2.2m Olympic bar to sit fully on rubber.

Laying and care

Simple to lay, simple to keep clean
  1. Sweep the floor so no grit is trapped under the mat.
  2. Choose which face you want on top: wide ribbed or textured.
  3. Lay the mat flat. For larger areas, butt the edges of each mat tightly against the next.
  4. Vacuum regularly to lift chalk, dust and grit from the surface.
  5. For a deeper clean, wash with cold water or use a pressure washer, then let it dry.
  6. Avoid oils and solvents, which rubber has only limited resistance to.

Frequently asked questions

What size is each mat?
Every mat is 1.2m wide and 1.8m long, which is about 4ft x 6ft. That gives a standing adult plenty of room to lift with space around their feet.
Should I choose 12mm or 17mm?
12mm suits dumbbell work, benches and general training. Choose 17mm for heavier free weights and barbells, where you want the higher level of floor protection.
Can I drop weights on it?
The mat is shock absorbent and designed to protect the subfloor when weights are dropped, and it stops them bouncing and rolling as much. For regular heavy drops from height, go for the 17mm mat.
Which side goes up?
Either. The mat is reversible, with a wide ribbed face and a textured face. Pick the one you prefer, or flip it to spread the wear.
Can I join several mats together?
Yes. The mats are loose lay and are designed to be butted tightly together, so you can cover a whole free-weight area with no adhesive.
Will it move around when I train?
Each mat weighs 26kg or 40kg, so it lies flat and its own weight keeps it in place on most gym floors.
Will sweat soak into it?
No. The rubber is non-porous, so sweat and other liquids stay on the surface and can be wiped or rinsed away.
Can it be used outdoors?
It is designed for wet and dry indoor areas. The rubber is UV resistant, so sunlight through gym windows will not harm it.
How does it compare with your interlocking gym tiles?
This mat is a single large piece for a lifting station or free-weight zone, quick to lay and move. For wall-to-wall coverage of a whole room, our interlocking rubber gym tiles click together into one continuous floor.
