WCL TreadCare Matting

WCL TreadCare Electrical

WCL TreadCare Electrical
Electrical switchboard matting is an essential safety product in modern industry.  Health and safety regulations require the provision of permanent insulation to prevent danger from shock to persons employed in the generation, transformation, distribution or use of electrical energy.

The WCL TreadCare electrical range of products includes 11,000 volt rubber matting or 15,000 volt BS921/1976 approved rubber or CorkRubber for 650 volt rated working.

 

WCL TreadCare Anti-fatigueWCL TreadCare Anti-fatigue
It is accepted throughout industry that operator fatigue and discomfort contributes significantly to lower productivity and higher absenteeism.  WCL TreadCare Anti-fatigue matting contains a unique cork/rubber blend, which alleviates the strain on operators' legs, providing comfort to the user and having a beneficial effect on work efficiency.  Its ribbed surface offers very good slip resistance and durability, whilst its flame retardant properties and resistance to a wide variety of oils and chemicals means it can be used in most locations and applications.

 
WCL TreadCare DiamondWCL TreadCare Diamond
WCL TreadCare Diamond is durable, lightweight flooring, designed to provide you with a surface that is both attractive and practical.  Offering excellent anti-slip properties, as well as impact resistance against damage from dropped tools, etc, this material is ideal for a wide variety of industrial applications.  WCL also produces step pads manufactured from WCL TreadCare Diamond, with or without self-adhesive backing.

CorkRubber Sheeting

The quality of industrial CorkRubber is superior to both cork or rubber compositions used separately.  The recovery properties of cork allow CorkRubber to almost fully return to its original shape even after hours of compression and friction, maintaining its initial insulating and sealing properties (both during and after the process).

Properly engineered, CorkRubber can resist strong compressive loads with minimal extrusion or lateral flow in a whole host of aggressive environments.  During dynamic operating conditions, CorkRubber maintains its sealing properties, as it does during thermal expansion / contraction and torsion flexing, even over long-term durability cycles.

The advantages and benefits of CorkRubber include:

  • Wide range of fluid compatibility
  • Compressible with negligable lateral flow
  • Reduced levels of transmitted vibration (acoustic insulation)
  • Excellent conformity with surfaces to be sealed
  • High resistance to compressive loads over long periods
  • Anti-slip and impact-resistance to abrasion
  • Excellent environmental sealing (ozone-resistance)
