TRX3425

Overview

The Traxxas 24x16in Medium Rubber Pit Mat TRX3425 is an essential addition to any RC enthusiast's workspace, whether you're a seasoned competitor, a weekend basher, or someone just discovering the world of RC cars and trucks. This professional-grade pit mat provides the perfect working surface for maintaining, upgrading, and organising your RC hobby collection. Based in the UK, RC hobbyists know the importance of having a dedicated, protected work area, and this medium-sized pit mat delivers exactly what you need without taking up excessive bench space.

Designed specifically with RC car UK enthusiasts in mind, the Traxxas pit mat is perfectly proportioned to accommodate most 1/10 scale RC vehicles and smaller models. Whether you're working on a brushless RC buggy, tweaking suspension on your latest monster truck, or performing routine maintenance on your ready-to-run RC car, this mat provides a stable, organised workspace that protects both your model and your work surface from damage, spills, and accidental scratches.

The chemical-resistant, heavy-gauge rubber construction makes this pit mat incredibly durable and capable of withstanding the daily wear and tear of serious RC work. Unlike thin mats that shift around during use, the Traxxas pit mat stays firmly in place and provides excellent protection from oils, fuel, cleaning solvents, and other chemicals commonly used in RC maintenance. This is precisely why it's become the go-to choice for RC workshops across the UK and beyond.

Key Features

• 24 x 16 inch dimensions — The generous 609mm x 405mm working surface is perfectly sized to accommodate most 1/10 scale and smaller RC vehicles, including popular models like the Traxxas Slash, Rustler, and Stampede, providing ample space without overwhelming a typical workbench or table.
• Chemical-resistant, heavy-gauge rubber construction — The robust rubber material is engineered to resist damage from oils, fuels, solvents, and other chemicals commonly encountered during RC maintenance and repair, ensuring your mat remains in excellent condition for years of use.
• Dual magnetic compartments for screws — Two strategically positioned magnetic sections keep small metal fasteners like screws, ball bearings, and tiny springs securely in place, preventing them from rolling away and getting lost during teardown and rebuild sessions.
• Specially-designed compartments for tools and parts — Integrated storage sections help you organise your tools, replacement parts, and components in one convenient location, keeping everything you need for your current project within arm's reach and reducing the time spent searching for items.
• Professional workbench protection — The heavy-duty rubber base takes a pounding to help protect your work surface from damage, preventing scratches, dents, and stains caused by tools, stands, and the natural wear of regular RC work.
• Non-slip, stable work surface — The mat remains securely in place during use, providing a stable platform that won't shift or slide around as you work on your RC models, ensuring safety and precision during delicate adjustments and repairs.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Medium Rubber Pit Mat TRX3425 is engineered from professional-grade heavy-gauge rubber that delivers exceptional durability and chemical resistance. The material construction is specifically formulated to withstand the rigorous demands of RC hobby work, including exposure to petroleum-based fuels, synthetic oils, cleaning solutions, and workshop solvents. The 24-inch by 16-inch working area (609mm x 405mm) provides sufficient space for disassembly and maintenance of most 1/10 scale RC vehicles, including competitive racing models, basher trucks, and crawler platforms. The mat's substantial weight and non-slip bottom surface ensure it remains firmly positioned on your workbench without movement during use. The dual magnetic compartments incorporate genuine magnetic technology to securely retain ferrous metal components, preventing the frustration of lost screws and fasteners. The specially-designed compartments feature raised edges and dividers that create distinct storage zones for organising different categories of parts and tools, streamlining your workflow and improving project efficiency. The chemical-resistant properties mean the mat can be easily cleaned with standard workshop solvents and will not degrade, stain, or deteriorate when exposed to RC fuels, engine oils, lubricants, or cleaning products. This is a tool built to last through countless hours of RC maintenance work.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the Traxxas Medium Pit Mat suitable for all RC vehicle sizes? — The mat is specifically designed to accommodate most 1/10 scale RC vehicles and smaller models. If you work regularly with 1/8 scale trucks or larger vehicles, you may want to consider the larger pit mat option. However, for typical 1/10 scale bashers, racers, and crawlers, this medium size is perfect.
• Will this pit mat protect my workbench from chemicals and spills? — Yes, the heavy-gauge rubber construction is chemical-resistant and designed to protect your work surface from damage caused by oils, fuels, solvents, and other materials commonly used in RC maintenance. The mat acts as a barrier between your tools, parts, and the underlying workbench.
• How do the magnetic compartments work? — The mat includes two integrated magnetic compartments that securely hold ferrous metal fasteners like screws, ball bearings, and tiny metal springs. Simply place your small metal parts in these sections during disassembly, and they'll remain safely in place without rolling away or getting lost.
• Can I clean this pit mat easily? — Absolutely. The chemical-resistant rubber material can be cleaned with standard workshop solvents, cleaning cloths, or even warm water and soap. The mat will not be damaged by exposure to the cleaning products you'd normally use in an RC workshop.
• What's the difference between the medium and large pit mats? — The Traxxas pit mat range includes different sizes for different needs. The medium mat (24x16 inches) is ideal for most 1/10 scale vehicles and workbenches with limited space, whilst larger mats accommodate bigger vehicles and provide more overall working area.
• Is this a professional-grade mat or a hobby-level mat? — This is a professional-grade pit mat used by RC hobbyists, weekend bashers, and competitive racers alike. The heavy-gauge rubber and thoughtful design make it suitable for serious RC work, whether you're maintaining a collection at home or supporting a racing programme.
