All across the country, trucks transport various kinds of goods for both personal and commercial use. The bed of a truck is the primary part of the vehicle to carry these goods. Sometimes, these items in the truck can be very heavy and abrasive. It is fairly easy for the bed of a truck to get damaged. In order to help protect this vital part of your vehicle, Rubber-Cal has a line of rubber heavy-duty mats that offer superior protective qualities against physical harm. Having the right kind of protective matting in place can protect the bed of a truck from damage that can come in the forms of chips, cracks, or spills to name a few. We offer heavier grade protective flooring and lining options that are stronger alternatives to light bed lining options. Not only do these heavy-duty mats resist the physical pressure of heavy and abrasive objects, they also help stabilize items in the truck bed thanks to rubber’s natural traction enhancing abilities. It is our aim to provide you with a quality thick rubber pad option for your truck at affordable prices.
It is beneficial to use a heavy and durable mat in your truck’s bed area simply for the protection it can provide. That is the most common reason why people use rubber protective matting in their truck beds. Trucks usually have some kind of coating put on their metal bed surfaces in order to protect them from damage. However, these do not last. Rubber heavy-duty mats, on the other hand, are far more durable than the existing light coverings of the truck beds. Our protective flooring and lining comes in thick gauges so that objects have a larger barrier between them and the sensitive bed surface. This thickness allows the rubber liner to prevent scratches, scuffs, chipping, and water damage.

Heavy-Duty Truck Mats
Trucks are often used to transport heavy objects from one place to another. Since they are so popular for moving applications, why not ensure that the bed of your truck is safe? Heavy-duty mats are ideal for supporting heavy objects like furniture, barrels, crates, and more. These types of objects are heavy and can put a dent in the regular metal beds that trucks come with. The rubber that is used in these durable mat products is shock absorbent, dispersing any physical impacts that may occur throughout the body of the thick rubber pad.
When transporting goods and other items, it is important to keep things in place and not have them sliding around. A certain level of grip is needed to help keep them in place. Rubber is a material that tends to naturally enhance the grip and traction of the objects on top of it. While it normally applies to feet, it can also apply to stationary objects like chairs. Heavy-duty mats, with their thick rubber content, have great traction enhancing capabilities that grip onto the objects on top of them. While an exposed metal surface may cause something to slip and slide while the truck is in motion, rubber protective matting helps keep things in place.
Moisture is often a concern in transportation. Some objects can carry water and even other liquids. At other times a truck bed may be exposed to wet weather conditions involving rain or snow. Thankfully, rubber is great at resisting water. It is another very important reason why we offer it as protective flooring and lining for transport vehicles. Water has a hard time damaging rubber because it cannot affect the molecular structure of rubber that easily. It will have an even harder time trying to damage heavy-duty mats because the rubber content is heavier and thicker in them than most other mats.
The only types of liquids to watch out for are oils, greases, and other chemical types of liquid. These are a bit more caustic and can harm the content of heavy-duty mats made from recycled rubber. For this purpose, we offer some protective matting options made of synthetic rubbers that can resist these harmful liquids at a far superior rate than recycled rubber. The degrees of oil and chemical resistance vary depending on the specific type of synthetic rubber, but they can handle the more caustic elements with relative ease.
There is no reason why any truck bed should go without good protective flooring and lining made of rubber. A durable mat can prevent a lot of expensive damage from occurring. Regardless of whether the heavy-duty mats are made of recycled or synthetic rubber, they will serve as a great barrier against physical abrasions and moisture damage. Rubber’s natural tendency to provide more grip and traction to objects is a boon to anyone transporting goods and materials in their truck beds. A thick rubber pad is a great alternative to light pads and liners that may degrade easily over time or in the face of continual physical abrasions. Heavy-duty mats are a must-have for any exposed truck bed.
