Cross-Over Zone Track Protectors

Description

The Cross-Over Zone Track Crossover Protector shields your running surface from damage at high-traffic entry points where athletes, coaches, and equipment cross the track. Made of tough polypropylene geotextile with double-stitched vinyl edging, this track crossover protector stands up to steel-tipped cleats, shoes, and wheeled grounds equipment while being significantly lighter and easier to handle than traditional conveyor belt rubber sections.

Specifications:

• Material: polypropylene geotextile with double-stitched vinyl edging
• Standard sizes: 7.5′ x 30′, 7.5′ x 40′, 7.5′ x 50′, 15′ x 30′, 15′ x 40′, 15′ x 50′
• Custom sizes available (call or email for pricing)
• Steel chain inserted into vinyl edging for ballast — keeps cover flat without stakes, staples, or sandbags
• Brightly colored edging (standard white or yellow) for maximum visibility; custom edge colors available

The steel chain ballast system is a practical feature for any track crossover protector that needs to stay in place through wind and heavy foot traffic. Because the chain is sewn into the vinyl edging, the protector lays flat on the track surface without requiring anchoring hardware that could damage the running surface. The bright edging color also serves as a visual guide, directing foot traffic to the designated crossing point rather than across unprotected lanes.

These protectors work well at entry gates, tunnel exits, and any point where the infield connects to the surrounding facility. For longer stretches of track surface coverage, the sideline track protectors cover full straightaways. The Vipol Matrix Mesh track protector is a premium mesh alternative that allows water drainage for facilities in wet climates. Custom sizing is available for non-standard track configurations.
