Running tracks are a major investment, and high-traffic crossing points are often where the most damage occurs. Track crossing mats by Sportsfield Specialties provide a simple, effective way to protect track surfaces from repeated foot traffic, cleats, and equipment movement. Placed at designated crossing areas, these mats create a durable barrier that helps reduce wear and extend the life of the track.
Constructed from porous polypropylene geotextile material, these mats allow water to drain through while maintaining a stable, non-slip surface. A perimeter-weighted design with vinyl-encased chain ballast keeps the mat securely in place without the need for anchors, making setup quick and reliable for daily use or event-based traffic.
Track crossing mats are especially useful at access points where athletes, staff, and equipment frequently move between the field and surrounding areas. By distributing load and minimizing direct contact with the track surface, they help prevent scuffs, gouges, and premature surface breakdown.
For facilities that need broader protection across larger areas or during high-traffic events, crossing mats can be used alongside roll-out track protectors to create a more comprehensive track protection system. While crossing mats define specific access points, roll-out systems provide continuous coverage for extended use, allowing facilities to protect more of the surface when needed.
Available in multiple sizes and customizable configurations, track crossing mats offer a flexible solution for managing traffic while maintaining the performance and appearance of your track surface.
