Wood Backed Padding

 

Wood Backed Padding offers several different mounting options that are not available with our sewn padding.

 

The typical industry method of installing padding is to provide no hardware and simply nail/screw the pad to the wall using a 1” lip at the top and bottom of the padding.

 

The Z-Clip mounting system is a Promats® Athletics innovation. The Z-Clip is mounted to the wall and to the back of the pad allowing the pads to be hung easily and provide an ‘invisible’ installation. The pads have no lip at the top or bottom (if using dual z-clip method) and the mounting hardware is installed entirely behind the pad, allowing for clean lines while maintaining an easy to hang, adjustable installation.

 

The WChannel bracket method uses a set of brackets at the top and bottom of the padding. The brackets use a channel that holds the pad in using the 1” lip that would normally be used for screwing or nailing the pad to the wall. The advantage of this method is that the brackets slide apart allowing easy removal and replacement of pads as individual panels become damaged and require repair or replacement.

 

Fire Retardant Vs Standard Padding With fire safety in mind, we use the same fire retardant 14oz vinyl covering for all indoor padding. Our fire retardant foam core option takes that safety to the next level. Once you’ve chosen wood backed or sewn padding and which mounting system to use, you will need to choose a standard 2” hi-impact foam core or Class “A” rated fire retardant foam core. All of Promats® Athletics indoor pads come with this choice of foam cores.

 

Sewn Padding

 

There are two standard mounting systems for sewn padding, a grommet based system and a hook & loop strip based system.

 

Grommet Mounted Option. The grommet system allows the pads to be hung via #2 grommets sewn into a 1 1/2 integrated vinyl flap on the pad.

 

Hook & Loop Mounted Option. The hook & loop strip system leaves one black strip on the wall and a corresponding strip on the pad, when the two are pressed together they form a seal, requiring a fair amount of force to pry them apart. Strips would be placed at both the bottom and top of the pads. These strips are generally mounted on the wall by a few screws and could be removed from the wall relatively easily.
