At 4 sqft\/tile, that’s 100 tiles plus 5–10% overage for edge cuts = 105–110 tiles. If you’re only covering the workout zone and not full wall-to-wall, reduce accordingly. The 24” format makes large garage installs significantly faster than 18” tiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs 5\/16\" thick enough for dropped barbells?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor controlled barbell work where the bar touches the floor between reps (deadlifts, rows), yes — the 8mm absorbs that impact well. For intentional drops from overhead or failed maximal attempts, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/1-2-inch-12mm-rubber-gym-tiles-24x24\"\u003e1\/2\" (12mm) tile\u003c\/a\u003e is the right choice. The 5\/16\" is built for weight training; the 1\/2\" is built for impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I use these tiles in a kennel with drains?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — for areas with floor drains, you have two options: tile up to the drain with standard interlocked tiles, or install tiles with a small gap between them to allow liquid to pass. The interlocking edges don’t seal watertight, so some drainage naturally occurs. For maximum drainage in wash areas, the slightly-spaced approach works well. The rubber itself is easy to sanitize with standard kennel disinfectants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat’s the price per square foot for the 24” tile?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack tiles: $2.16\/sqft ($8.64 ÷ 4 sqft). Color tiles (Gray, Blue, Blue\/Gray, Eggshell\/Cocoa, Terra Cotta): $2.34\/sqft. For comparison, the 18” Black tile is $2.25\/sqft — the 24” format saves about 9 cents per square foot in Black, which adds up on large installs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes the interlocking system work on uneven floors?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReasonably well for minor variation — 1\/4” to 1\/2” level changes across a room. For significantly uneven floors (more than 1\/2” slope or notable dips), the tiles may rock at the seams. Flatten significant dips with self-leveling compound before tiling for the best result. Standard concrete floors with normal variation tile with no issues.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rubber Flooring Store","offers":[{"title":"Black - $2.16\/sqft","offer_id":52201853813047,"sku":"8mmRubberRubberGymTiles-24\"x24\"-Black","price":8.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray - $2.34\/sqft","offer_id":52201853845815,"sku":"8mmRubberRubberGymTiles-24\"x24\"-Gray","price":9.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue - $2.34\/sqft","offer_id":52201853878583,"sku":"8mmRubberRubberGymTiles-24\"x24\"-Blue","price":9.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue\/Gray - $2.34\/sqft","offer_id":52201853911351,"sku":"8mmRubberRubberGymTiles-24\"x24\"-Blue\/Gray","price":9.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Eggshell\/Cocoa - $2.34\/sqft","offer_id":52201853944119,"sku":"8mmRubberRubberGymTiles-24\"x24\"-Eggshell\/Cocoa","price":9.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Terra Cotta - $2.34\/sqft","offer_id":52201853976887,"sku":"8mmRubberRubberGymTiles-24\"x24\"-Terracotta","price":9.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0846\/8021\/2791\/files\/RFS_24x24_tile_8mm_terra_cotta_01.jpg?v=1761658366","url":"https:\/\/rubberflooring.store\/products\/5-16-inch-8mm-rubber-gym-tiles-24x24","provider":"Rubber Flooring Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
