Step 1: Remove Loose Debris
Before applying any cleaner, vacuum the rubber floor with a soft brush head to remove dust, dirt, and loose particles. A vacuum works better than a broom because it can pull debris out of the small pores in the rubber.
- Adjust the vacuum brush height so it doesn’t scratch or mark the surface.
- A light to medium setting is usually enough to lift debris without causing damage.
Step 2: Wash the Floor
Rubber flooring is best cleaned with a mop, but not all mop types work well:
- Avoid cotton string mops or low-quality sponge mops, as they can shed fibers.
- Use a microfiber mop head for the best results.
Mix a pH-neutral cleaner (such as Zep Concentrated Neutral pH Floor Cleaner) with warm water, following the product’s dilution instructions. Mop the floor with a damp—not soaking wet—mop.
⚠️ If using a foamy cleaner (like dish soap), rinse the floor afterward with clean water. Skipping this step can leave behind a film that makes the floor look dull and attracts more dirt.
Step 3: Dry the Floor
Let the floor air dry completely. To speed up the process:
- Open windows for better airflow.
- Use a box fan to circulate air.
- Wipe up excess water with a dry microfiber cloth or mop.

3/8" (9mm) XL Rubber Rolls — Our Best-Selling Thickness, Now 5 Feet Wide
Our 3/8" (9mm) rubber rolls are the best-selling gym flooring thickness we carry. Now in a 5-foot-wide XL format, they bring that same commercial-grade durability and impact absorption to large-scale installations — with dramatically fewer seams, faster installation, and a professional finish that stands out the moment you walk in.
If you’re outfitting a commercial weight room, a large training facility, a school gym, or a serious home gym build where you want a seamless finish across a wide floor, these 9mm XL rubber flooring rolls are the top-of-the-lineup choice. Made in the USA from recycled tires, cut to your exact length, and backed by an industry-leading 5-year warranty.
The XL Advantage: Why 5 Feet Wide Changes the Install
- 25% more coverage per roll — one 5-foot strip covers what would take 1.25 standard strips
- Fewer seams = more durable floor long-term — seams are where wear, moisture, and edge lift start; fewer seams means a floor that holds up longer under heavy commercial use
- Faster installation on large jobs — fewer strips to cut, position, and glue down on wide open spaces
- Less waste — the wider format aligns better with standard room widths, leaving fewer narrow offcuts
- Premium look — the clean, low-seam aesthetic reads as intentional and professional in any facility
Why 3/8" (9mm) Is the Right Thickness for Serious Gym Builds
- Our #1 best-selling gym floor thickness — trusted by home gym owners and commercial facility managers alike
- Handles free weights, barbells, and heavy cardio equipment with ease
- Superior impact absorption and sound dampening underfoot and under equipment
- 5-year industry-leading warranty on all rubber flooring
- Made in the USA from recycled tires — durable, eco-responsible
- Slip-resistant surface engineered for demanding training environments
- Cut to your exact length — from 15’ to 50’ in 5-foot increments
- Safe for indoor and outdoor use
- Available in 5 colors: Black, Gray, Blue, Blue/Gray, and Confetti

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 3/8" XL the same rubber as the standard 3/8" rolls, just wider?
Exactly right. Same recycled rubber compound, same USA manufacturing, same 5-year warranty — just 5 feet wide instead of 4 feet. The XL format is the better choice when you want fewer seams across a large floor. For tighter spaces or more layout flexibility, our standard 4-foot 3/8" rolls are the move.
Why is the 3/8" thickness so popular for commercial gyms?
It hits the ideal balance: thick enough to absorb the impact of free weights, barbells, and heavy cardio equipment, without being so thick that it adds unnecessary cost or feels underfoot like a track surface. At 9mm, you get real protection for subfloors and real comfort for athletes training for hours at a time.
Can the 3/8" XL handle dropped weights?
It handles moderate weight drops well — free weights, dumbbells, and routine barbell work. If your facility regularly involves heavy barbells dropped from overhead (Olympic lifts, clean-and-jerk, snatch), we’d recommend our 1/2" (12mm) rubber rolls for maximum protection.
Does the 5-year warranty apply to the XL rolls?
Yes — our 5-year warranty covers all rubber flooring including the 3/8" XL rolls, covering manufacturing defects in material and workmanship.
How do I install 5-foot-wide rubber rolls in a large space?
Roll out each strip, trim to length with a straight edge and sharp utility knife, and lay flat across your subfloor. For permanent commercial installations, apply Polyurethane Adhesive to the subfloor before laying each strip, and use Double Sided Tape at seams. The 5-foot width means fewer seams to deal with, which is a real time-saver on big jobs.
