Benefits of Fiberglass Core Mats
For more than one hundred years, the Fiberglass Core Mat has been a staple of professional wrestling. It has also been used in softball team equipment. It is an extremely durable product that is free of toxic fumes and is unaffected by moisture, dirt, and chemicals. This means that there are no health risks related to using a Fiberglass Core Mat. If you are interested in purchasing a Mat to use for wrestling or other competitive sports then this article will provide you with a quick overview of how the product works and some related products that may interest you.
A Fiberglass Mat has a quilted top that fits over the wrestling mat. It is then covered with polyethylene, a type of plastic that can withstand abrasion, heat, chemicals, and a great deal of wear and tear. It also offers excellent traction on all types of surfaces including concrete, grass, asphalt, gravel, and snow. All mats come standard with a rubber grip so that you do not slip and slide on the mat.
In addition to standard mats, there are specialized mats that are used for specific sports. These specialized mats are often more durable and have specialized seams and grooves in order to provide the most efficient transfer of energy between various parts of the body. For example, a grinded surface can be found in many grinded steel mats while a textured blue mat features tiny grooves that allow the lightweight rubber padding underneath to flex without causing stress to any joints.
Not only are athletic mats waterproof, they are also completely washable. So, even if you decide to spend the extra money for specialty mats that require dry cleaning, you can be sure that your mats will last for a long time. You may also enjoy the benefit of having them cleaned regularly by a professional technician since you can wash and dry them right in the washing machine without any fuss or hassle. Dry cleaning helps to get rid of soil and grease that can lead to staining and shrinking of the mats.
Another advantage of a fiberglass-core mat is that they are inexpensive. Fiberglass mats are so inexpensive that you can find them to match just about every budget. There are many different styles and colors available, so you are sure to find one that will fit into your home decor. They are also easy to clean and because they are lightweight and non-absorbent, they can easily be transferred from room to room when moving from one area to another.
Finally, a fiberglass mat has the advantage of being able to be installed by anyone with only a few basic tools. Unlike other flooring materials, such as wood, concrete, or carpet, it is fairly simple to install a fiberglass-core mat. This fact makes it a great choice for apartments and even barefoot condos where carpeting is not a practical option
