16 mm Graduated Turf Track S-004 - Triple Metre Graduation

In brief — 16 mm Graduated Turf Track S-004: fire rating Cfl-s2, standards EN 12616:2014, EN 20105, EN 13501-1, price 69.30 € excl. VAT.

Three reading levels stacked on the same lane, so the distance is visible whatever the athlete is doing. The S-004 is the most densely graduated track in the series: a high, a central and a low graduation line, with repeated numbering. It is aimed at facilities that use measurement as a daily tool, from strength and conditioning centres to performance laboratories and clubs running standardised test protocols.

Triple metre graduation, repeated numbering

Where a single line can be hidden by a sled, a partner or a piece of equipment, three superimposed levels keep at least one reading visible at all times. The numbering is repeated on each level, so an athlete lying down, kneeling or running upright reads the same distance without hunting for the mark.

Pro quality 16 mm turf, made to measure

16 mm fibre in Pro quality synthetic turf, specified for intensive indoor use. Sold by the square metre with length and width made to measure. The graduation is manufactured into the surface, so the track leaves the factory already calibrated to the distances agreed for your room.

Technical specifications

Which facilities is it for?

Performance testing: a protocol that survives staff changes. Three graduation levels and repeated numbering mean two coaches read the same distance the same way. Sprint repeats, acceleration tests and speed endurance work stay comparable across a season because the measurement is in the floor, not in somebody memory.

Rehabilitation and return to running: fine control of distance. A dense graduation lets a physiotherapist increase a run by a few metres at a time, which is exactly the resolution that a cone-based set-up cannot give.

CrossFit boxes and HYROX gyms: a conditioning lane that never needs setting up. Sled pushes, sled pulls, bear crawls and farmer walks run to a called distance that everyone can read from any position on the lane.

Gyms with a functional area: a lane that reads as equipment. A densely marked track defines the conditioning zone without a partition, discourages equipment being parked on it, and signals a performance-oriented facility to every visitor.

What to know before ordering

The price is per square metre, not per linear metre. A lane of 15 m by 2 m is 30 m2. Work out the real area before comparing quotations: a price per linear metre and a price per square metre are not the same thing.

The marking is manufactured in, not added afterwards. The numbering and the graduation lines are part of the surface: they do not wear off, but they cannot be changed after delivery. On a triple graduation this matters more than on a simple lane, because the three levels have to be positioned against your actual distances. Confirm the marking plan before production starts.

Turf does not take prolonged static loads. The fibres compress under the feet of racks, selectorised machines or any equipment left standing. Keep the lane free of fixed equipment and plan rubber tiles for machine areas and drop zones.

Fibre composition, backing, weight per m2 and fire classification are not published. Those figures drive delivery logistics and compliance in buildings open to the public. Ask us for the full technical data sheet before committing to a project that has to pass a safety inspection.

The substrate is prepared before installation, not after. It must be stable, clean, dry and level enough. Existing irregularities are corrected before laying: they remain perceptible under the turf and concentrate where the sled runs. Rolling the turf out over the substrate before final fixing shows up the defects to correct.

What we do not claim. This track is designed for sled lanes, but no HYROX approval and no equivalence of behaviour with the official competition turf is claimed: no certified comparative test has been carried out. Nor do we publish a guaranteed service life for intensive commercial use, because it depends on frequency of use, loads, sled type, maintenance and installation quality.

Frequently asked questions

Is the track delivered in one piece?

Packaging depends on the dimensions ordered: beyond a certain length the track is supplied in several widths to be joined on site. Send us your dimensions and we will confirm the exact make-up of your configuration.

Can it be laid over existing rubber tiles?

Yes. Installation is on a hard, flat floor: concrete, tiling or rubber tiles. Flatness of the substrate is the critical point, since any irregularity shows through the turf and is felt underfoot when running.

Which width should I choose?

The 1 m width option is not available on this reference. Length and width are made to measure: a width of 2 m allows two athletes side by side or the passage of a wide sled. State the width you need when you request a quotation.

Why three graduation levels rather than one?

Because a single line disappears the moment a sled, a partner or a piece of equipment covers it. With three superimposed readings, the distance stays legible from any position on the lane.

What daily maintenance does it need?

Regular vacuuming to remove dust and debris, periodic brushing to lift the fibres, and washing with water and a neutral detergent. Avoid solvents and pressure washers on the marked areas.

Can we have a lane with no seam across the full width?

Standard production width is 2 m, to keep handling and transport manageable: beyond that, widths are joined on site. A special width of up to 2.82 m in a single piece can be produced, at an extra cost quoted with the offer. Tell us the lane width you are aiming for and we will confirm what is feasible on your project.

Is this track HYROX approved?

No. It is used for sled training, including HYROX preparation, but no approval and no certified equivalence with the official competition turf is claimed, as no comparative test has been carried out. We prefer to say so before the order rather than let an equivalence be assumed.
