Pour-In-Place Rubber Surfacing Kits for Playground Repair

 

Our EPDM rubber is 100 percent latex-free and poured in layers to ensure the greatest cushion possible for your play area. Pour-in-place rubber surfacing is one of the best choices for the ultimate protective surface. With its many layers, poured rubber playground flooring stands the test of time year after year. Still, there are occasions when a repair is needed. Thankfully, Discount Playground Supply makes repairs easy with our surface repair kits. Choose from one to five gallons of Fast Patch Aromatic binder or our Fast Patch repair kits that come with pre-measured amounts of what you need for a quick repair. You can even use our patching kits to fill in gaps on other surfaces near or on the playground, such as sidewalks and walking tracks. Maintain your pour-in-place rubber surfacing, and it will perform well for many years.

Fast Patch rubber playground surface repair kits are designed such that anyone with even limited knowledge of tools can easily repair areas that need it. Our pour-in-place rubber surfacing kits make it simple to mend cracks, splits, and holes in playground surfacing or running tracks surfaces. Each poured-in-place rubber DIY kit contains pre-measured amounts of binder (glue) and rubber and makes playground surface repair a straightforward process. Discount Playground Supply has plenty of colors in stock, too.

For areas in and around the impact zone of a playground, the rubber safety surface is comprised of a base layer, or impact layer, which acts like a shock absorber on a car, and a wear layer, which takes the punishment of the day to day surface traffic. The cutaway image shows the base layer in black and the wear layer in blue. As a note, the higher the fall zone, the thicker the base layer of poured rubber playground flooring needs to be. The wear layer is typically 1/2" to 5/8" thick, no matter the thickness of the base layer. 

The base layer is always black and is a different type and grind of rubber than the colorful wear layer. The base layer and wear layer of our pour-in-place rubber surfacing kits use different mix ratios of binder to rubber and maintaining those ratios is critical to the safety "system" working properly. Our customers love Fast Patch products because each rubber playground surface repair kit has the exact blend of rubber and binder already measured out. Simply mix the substances and trowel your mixture in the hole.

The wear layer of poured rubber playground flooring is available in many colors and mixes of colors which gives each surface its distinctive look. Both base layer and wear layer playground surface repair kits are crazy simple to use, each offering professional results. You can find a "how to" video on each Fast Patch page below. 

We strongly recommend coating the entire playground with MaxxClear H2O surface conditioner soon after the repair are completed and dried. Maxx Clear restores, preserves, and extends the surface life of poured-in-place rubber surfacing, splash pads, and running track surfaces; it makes colors POP again. Maxx Clear ... affordable playground maintenance in a pail.
