What If There Is A Hole On The Air Track Mat

Inflatables air track mats for gymnastics and other activities are stronger than ever, but they’re not indestructible.

Ways To Repair Air Track Mats

Under the wrong conditions, even the toughest air track mat can tear or puncture. Thankfully, many of them can be repaired.

Find the source of deflation

The first step in any type of inflatable air track mat repair is to find the source of deflation. If you have just moved the mat and accidentally hit a sharp surface, you may feel a tear or poke and hear the air immediately leave the mat. Other times, the hole will be harder to spot. To find it, apply a small amount of warm soapy water to the surface of the air track mat and the hole will appear in the soapy water, so you can find it.

If you already find the source of deflation, then clean the area around the inflation hole to ensure your patch or glue sticks in the best possible way. You don’t have to scrub the entire air track mat, just the area you plan to patch.

When using an inflatable patch kit, it is important to ensure that your patch covers the entire hole you are repairing. You don’t want to make it too big as this requires you to use more adhesive. If necessary, cut the patch to the desired size, leaving a few inches on each side of the hole for the adhesive to adhere. No matter what type of restoration you plan to use, you’ll have to apply some glue. Finally, to make sure your patch sticks, you can apply steady pressure when you attach it to the inflatable device. This is especially important for inflatable seam repairs, which will require your patch to bend into a corner. Wait two to three minutes, then let go and release the pressure and do a final check.
