Most Common Product Questions For cork laminate gym at Greatmats:
Is this good to use for floor aerobics?
Yes this high density foam tile is good for a home aerobic flooring surface. Do not install over carpeting as the foam tiles need to make flat contact with the subfloor in order to not slip around.
I need something that I can lift weights on and not have to worry if I dropped them. will this work?
This high density foam tile can handle weights up to about 35 lbs, over that you might consider the 20 mm version of this same product or 3/8 or 8 mm rubber tile.
go for tumbling
Not really, I would recommend a gym folding mat.
Can these be used outside on concrete and do they slide?
This is an indoor EVA foam floor tile only.
Can this mat be used in my man cave? I will have a saltwater aquarium in there so sometime a little water spillage can happen oh and spilled beer when I over indulge.
These tiles can be installed over any hard, flat, indoor surface. If you are placing furniture over the top, we suggest furniture sliders to help disperse the weight and prevent indents. It is a dense, durable foam. The tiles are water/liquid proof, but the seams are not.
How long can I expect these foam tiles to last in a home gym that gets used 3-4 times per week?
The length of time your mats would last depends on the type of use. Customers can expect years of use out of these mats for light home gym use.
Can these be laid out over carpet? They will be ''boxed in'' by 2 walls, plus a 2 foot bump out. As well as a pillar on the opposite corner. I'm hoping that would prevent sliding?
Foam tiles should be installed over a hard and flat surface. If your carpeting is low pile and non-padded, this application will work.
i got mine a few days ago and they have a pretty strong smell... what it is? i thought they were EVA.... will it go away? anyone else experienced?
The foam tiles will sometimes have a light smell when first installed. We suggest a cleaning solution consisting of dish soap and warm water. Any smell will dissipate over a short period of time.
Are these mats ideal for HIIT workouts that require jumping, burpees, etc? Or do you recommend any of your other mats?
This is a hard foam and not ideal for aerobic-type exercise. Plyometric rolled rubber would be a better option.
How many tiles come in a carton for the Home Gym Flooring Tile Pebble 10 mm mat? Do I have to purchase a complete carton or can I purchase partials? And to be clear, it is $5.87 per tile?
These mats are shipped in boxes of 25. But, you may order the quantity needed. You are not required to order per box.
If you put vinyl marley over the tiles, would you feel the pebbles through it?
If you install the tiles upside down so the pebbles are on the bottom, you will not feel the pebble texture.
