FAQs
Are these tiles suitable for outdoor use?
These tiles are designed for indoor use. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and extreme weather conditions may degrade the material.
How thick should I choose?
For general free weight use and moderate impact, 10mm to 20mm is usually sufficient. For very heavy weights, Olympic lifting, or extreme impact protection, 25mm to 40mm is recommended.
Can I use these on a heated floor?
It is not recommended to use these tiles on a heated floor, as the heat may affect the integrity and bonding of the rubber material.
Will these tiles mark my floor when I lift them?
The non-marking black color is designed to be non-glaring and should not leave marks on most subfloors. However, it's always a good practice to test a small area if you have concerns about your specific flooring.
How do I join the tiles together?
The tiles are designed to fit snugly together. No special joining method is required; simply place them edge-to-edge. The weight of the tiles and equipment will keep them in place.
Can I cut these tiles to fit around gym equipment?
Yes, the tiles can be easily cut with a sharp utility knife or jigsaw to fit around columns, machines, or create custom shapes for your gym layout.
What is the warranty period for these tiles?
Please refer to the product packaging or the retailer's website for specific warranty information, as it may vary.
Troubleshooting
Tiles do not lie flat
Allow tiles to acclimatize to room temperature for 24-48 hours before installation. Ensure the subfloor is perfectly level. If a tile is still warped, try placing a heavy object on it overnight.
Noticeable rubber odor
This is normal for new rubber products. Ensure the area is well-ventilated. The odor typically dissipates within a few days to a week with regular use and ventilation.
Cutting tiles is difficult or uneven
Use a sharp, heavy-duty utility knife or a jigsaw. Score the cut line multiple times for cleaner results. A straight edge or guide can help maintain accuracy.
Tiles shift during use
Ensure tiles are laid tightly adjacent to each other. If significant shifting occurs on a high-traffic area, consider using a small amount of heavy-duty double-sided carpet tape in key locations for added stability, although this is rarely necessary.
