Designed to be versatile, not only in the field, but to suit a wide variety of vehicles
The main feature of the glide mat system is its modular system; enabling mats to be stored flat packed and assembled on site.
The main components to this system are the spreader/pull bar, featuring a kick up for riding over rough terrain and the glide mat itself.
The glide mat has matching location holes on all 4 sides; meaning the spreader bar can be attached and pulled on any side.
The material used is of highest quality giving great resistance to wear, huge strength and fantastic weight advantages over other plastics.

Keep Animals Safe & Secure While Moving Them
The 4-Piece Glide Mats come in 6mm or 10mm thick HDPE sheets (High Density Polyethylene). The 6mm mats are designed for regular use and the 10mm mats are harder wearing and more durable.
They are a modular set and connect quickly with special nuts and bolts (included in kit) that can be done up by hand. When assembled it measures 1.2m wide by 2.4m long.
The mats are then connected to an aluminium pull bar which has a large 16mm D Shackle (included in kit) that can be pulled along the ground once the animal is secured to the mat. This pull bar is angled to easily be pulled over uneven terrain. The mats can be pulled from any side by moving the position of the pull bar.
With the animal sedated (by a qualified vet) and on the glide mat, the straps make sure the animal is secure before moving.
