These electrical rubber insulating mattings are manufactured as per the ASTM D 178 standard set by the American Society for Testing and Materials. These non-conductive rubber mats help protect the workforce from electrical shocks.

The ASTM D 178 standard recommends thickness from 3.2mm to 12.7mm for the mats depending on use/working voltage resistance with anti-skid textured finish on both sides or fine-ribbed top and textured bottom surface.

These safety rubber mats (Type-I grade) are leakage, moisture, and waterproof guaranteeing long functional life. Type-II grade offers additional properties such as ozone, flame, and oil resistance. The manufacturer’s Test Certificate is provided along with the supply.
