Description
The TekMat 250th Anniversary Gun Cleaning Mat is a special edition of the original printed cleaning and maintenance mat, dressed up with patriotic themed artwork and detailing to mark 250 years of American heritage. It gives you a generous 36 by 12 inch footprint, which is plenty of room to lay out a full-size rifle or shotgun and still keep your punches, brushes, pins, and small parts organized within arm's reach. If you've ever chased a detent spring across a bare workbench, you already know why that extra space matters.
What Makes the 250th Anniversary Mat Worth Keeping on the Bench
Underneath the design, this is the same build TekMat has been known for. The surface is soft and oil- and water-resistant, so solvents, CLP, and moisture wipe up easily instead of soaking into your table. The soft top won't scratch your firearm's finish, and there are no loose fibers to work their way into your action. Dye-sublimation printing means the artwork won't fade, peel, or wash off no matter how many cleaning sessions it sees.
Padding and Grip on the 36-Inch TekMat
The mat runs 1/8 inch thick, which does two jobs at once. That padding cushions your firearm against dings and drops while you're working, and it also protects the surface underneath from scratches and dents. The rubber backing grips the bench and keeps the whole thing from sliding around while you're scrubbing a bore or torquing a scope base. When you're done, it rolls up for storage or tosses in a range bag without much fuss.
A Mat That Earns Its Spot
Beyond the practical side, this one just looks sharp sitting on the bench, and it makes a solid gift for anyone who takes pride in caring for their guns. It's washable when it gets grimy, holds up to regular use, and works just as well for routine field cleaning as it does for a full detail strip. Whether you're running an AR, a bolt gun, or a shotgun, the 250th Anniversary mat gives you a clean, protected, good-looking place to do the work.

Frequently Asked Questions
How big is the TekMat 250th Anniversary mat and what will it fit?
It measures 36 by 12 inches, which is TekMat's long gun size. That's enough room to lay out a fully disassembled rifle or shotgun with space left over for your tools, cleaning rods, and small parts. It works great for AR platforms, bolt guns, and shotguns.
Will solvents and gun oil ruin the surface?
No. The top surface is oil- and water-resistant, so CLP, bore solvents, and moisture wipe up rather than soaking through to your bench. The mat is also washable when it eventually gets grimy from regular use.
Does the 250th Anniversary artwork wear off over time?
It shouldn't. TekMat uses dye-sublimation printing that impregnates the ink into the surface fibers rather than screen printing on top. That means the commemorative design resists fading, peeling, and washing out even with heavy use.
Does the mat slide around while you're working?
The rubber backing grips your bench, desk, or table and keeps the mat planted while you scrub and reassemble. When you're finished, it rolls up easily for storage or to stash in a range bag.
