Chequerplate Rubber Runner Mat 3mm – Diamond Plate Non-Slip Industrial Floor Matting
The chequerplate (diamond plate) rubber mat is an industrial classic — and for good reason. The raised diamond pattern is one of the most effective non-slip surface profiles available, providing excellent grip in both wet and dry conditions while giving installations a professional, purposeful look that's widely recognised in industrial and commercial settings. This 3 mm chequerplate rubber runner is available by the metre in a range of widths, allowing precise coverage of walkways, machine stands, vehicle ramps, and workstation floors without wasteful overordering. Supplied by Rubber Matting Direct — the UK's rubber matting specialists.

Buying Guide
The 3 mm chequerplate profile is the ideal thickness for walkway, vehicle floor, and light industrial applications where a non-slip surface finish is needed without significant height increase. For heavier industrial applications or where more cushioning is required, our 6 mm and 10 mm SBR rubber options provide greater material depth. All are available in 120 cm widths by the metre.
Installation & Care
Install: Unroll and cut to length. Loose-lay for temporary use or bond with contact adhesive for permanent installation. The weight of 3 mm rubber holds the mat in low-traffic positions without adhesive.
Care: Sweep or mop regularly. Compatible with pressure washing and standard commercial cleaning chemicals.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the load-bearing capacity of 3mm chequerplate rubber?
3 mm rubber handles pedestrian foot traffic and light wheeled loads (trolleys, hand trucks) without issue. For forklift or heavy vehicle traffic, 6 mm or 10 mm rubber is recommended.
Can chequerplate rubber be used on a vehicle ramp?
Yes — the raised diamond profile provides positive slip resistance on ramp surfaces for both foot traffic and wheeled equipment. Ensure the mat is bonded or secured at the edges on sloped surfaces.
How does chequerplate rubber differ from standard flat rubber?
The raised diamond pattern increases the contact surface's texture coefficient compared to flat rubber, providing measurably better slip resistance in both wet and dry conditions. It also gives a professional, industrial appearance that flat rubber doesn't provide.
