Technical Performance

The FTX Medium Foam Pit Mat is engineered for durability and practical functionality in demanding workshop environments. The 2mm thick foam composition provides a protective barrier that absorbs impacts and prevents your RC models from sliding around when you're working on them, whilst the 600x400mm dimensions create a workspace large enough to accommodate most 1/10 scale buggies, crawlers, and smaller 1/16 scale models simultaneously. The foam material is chemical-resistant to common workshop fluids including fuel residue, synthetic oils, and cleaning solvents, making it suitable for use with both electric RC cars and nitro fuel vehicles. The mat's lightweight construction—designed to be easily portable—means you can take your pit mat with you to RC races, bashing events, or trail meetings throughout the UK without adding significant weight to your equipment bag. The surface grip is engineered to prevent small parts, fasteners, and components from rolling away during maintenance sessions, which is particularly valuable when you're working on suspension tuning, gear adjustments, or electronic component installation. Whether you're maintaining an FTX Outlaw 4WD buggy, an FTX Mauler 2.0 rock crawler, or any other brand of RC vehicle, this pit mat provides years of reliable service in home workshops, garage setups, and portable pit stations.
