TekMat 12x36 Gun Cleaning Mat - AR-15 Black

The TekMat 12x36 Gun Cleaning Mat in black is a purpose-built, full-size cleaning and maintenance surface designed specifically for AR-15 field-stripping and component organization. Manufactured by GSM, this large-format mat measures 36 inches in length, providing ample workspace for a completely disassembled rifle plus tools, small parts, and accessories without crowding. The 1/8-inch closed-cell foam padding delivers premium cushioning that protects firearms from dings and dropped components while creating a soft work surface that reduces fatigue during extended cleaning sessions.

The mat's oil and water-resistant surface prevents fluids from soaking through while safeguarding your rifle's finish from scratches and marring. An integrated printed diagram and maintenance illustration guide accelerates field-stripping procedures, eliminating the need to reference external manuals during cleaning cycles. This reference system proves invaluable for operators conducting rapid maintenance in the field, on the range, or in the armory. The non-slip rubber backing anchors the mat firmly to work benches, tables, or vehicle hoods, preventing shift during vigorous cleaning strokes or when applying solvent and brushes.

This mat serves law enforcement duty personnel, military personnel, competitive shooters, and serious AR-platform enthusiasts who require organized, repeatable maintenance workflows. The 36-inch length accommodates the AR-15's fully collapsed configuration with substantial room for barrel removal, bolt carrier group disassembly, and small-parts staging. The black colorway blends into tactical gear bags and vehicle storage without drawing attention, while the durable construction withstands repeated deployment across years of active use.

TekMat cleaning mats have become the standard reference surface across police armories, military training facilities, and civilian range environments. The AR-15-specific layout eliminates guesswork during component reassembly and helps prevent lost or misplaced springs and pins. At 1.47 pounds, the mat balances portability with robust padding, making it suitable for range bags, barracks storage, or permanent armory stations.
