Electrical Matting ASTM D178
Key Features
- Health & Safety regulation electrical safety matting
- Fully traceable supply
- Regulatory branding on reverse every 1000mm
- Ensures safety for operatives at lower voltage switchboard & high equipment areas
- Anti-slip finish
- Low maintenance
Product Description
This electrical matting ASTM D178 is a highly popular product. It is used in a variety of industries due to the range of safe working voltage the mats offer. All of our mats are independently tested to ensure that they meet safety standards. This electrical safety matting has the regulation standard stamped on the reverse of the roll at 1000mm intervals.
The top surface of the mats features a fine ribbed design. This gives our electrical matting ASTM D178 two key features. Firstly, it gives the mats a superior surface area which aids in the dispersal of electrical charge. Secondly the fine ribs provide great non slip properties. This means that one product can provide two forms of safety, saving you time and money.
