Dica Outrigger Pads unveiled the in-stock availability of its four best-selling AlturnaMATS models—the AM48 and AM38, which have traction on both sides, and the AM 48-S1 and AM 38-S1, which have traction on one side.
Constructed of 0.5-inch thick, engineered high-density polyethylene (HDPE) material, the ground protection mats, essentially, are a replacement for plywood. AlturnaMATS, which come with a limited lifetime warranty, support up to 120 tons and can be linked together to build temporary roadways, walkways, work platforms or parking areas. Their purpose is to eliminate the chance of equipment becoming stuck or causing rut damage, providing contractors increased productivity and fewer necessary ground repairs at the conclusion of the job, according to Dica.
Black AlturnaMATS in 4 foot x 8 foot and 3 foot x 8 foot sizes are available for immediate shipment. The standard configuration features a tough diamond plate tread design on both sides. A one-sided traction option (S1) also is available for crews wanting to prevent traction imprints or slide the mats on and off one another for storage.
