The Lyman Essential Rifle Maintenance Mat (SKU: LY-ERM, Manufacturer Part Number: 04051) is a purpose-built, heavy-duty workspace protector designed to accommodate long guns during cleaning, maintenance, and disassembly. Developed in response to feedback from shooters who required a larger, rifle-length version of Lyman's handgun cleaning mats, this accessory offers a generous surface area measuring 10 inches by 36 inches (approximately 25.4 cm by 91.44 cm). Crafted from durable synthetic rubber in a neutral brown colour, it provides a cushioned, 0.125-inch (approximately 3.17 mm) thick barrier that protects your firearm's finish from scratches and dings while shielding your underlying workbench from harsh chemical spills and physical wear.

Key Features of the Lyman Essential Rifle Maintenance Mat:

• Cushioned Workspace Protection: The 3.17 mm thick synthetic rubber construction provides a firm yet forgiving surface that prevents metal-on-wood or metal-on-metal wear, protecting your rifle's receiver, barrel, and stock during assembly and disassembly.
• Chemical and Slip Resistance: Engineered to withstand common gun-cleaning solvents, oils, and aerosol chemicals, the synthetic rubber prevents liquid penetration to the workbench below. The textured surface offers slip resistance, keeping your firearm and tools securely in place.
• Molded-In Storage Compartments: Features integrated, recessed sections molded directly into the rubber. These compartments keep small pins, springs, detents, and screws organized and secure, preventing them from rolling off the workspace while containing minor liquid spills.
• Simple Maintenance and Storage: Because the synthetic rubber does not absorb liquids, the mat can be wiped down quickly or washed with warm water and basic soap. The flexible material allows the mat to be rolled up compactly for storage or transport in a range bag.
• Passive, Non-Electrical Design: This maintenance mat is a fully manual accessory requiring no external power. As a passive rubber mat, it does not require 240V power and is exempt from Australian SAA or RCM (Regulatory Compliance Mark) electrical safety certifications.
