Rifle Range Mats.
The main use of the Rubber Tiles is to protect range fixtures and timbers against damage from small arms fire. Trials have been conducted at the M.O.D. ranges at Ash and Pirbright. The results of the trials are documented in the Report No. RO/20/99, available from the A.T.E. and significant savings in costs and range maintenance time are also projected.
All Rifle Range Mantlet Mats are of a solid construction, coloured black throughout and measure 110mm thick. They are manufactured from high-density recycled SBR truck tyre buffing’s and special purpose polyurethane pre-polymer.
They are generally installed 4 or 5 thick and bonded together using special P.U. adhesive which is supplied in 6.8kg Twin Pack (suitable for 20 mats) or 310ml cartridges (suitable for 4 mats).
