Every firearm owner knows a workspace is only as good as the surface beneath it, and the Tekmat Ultra 20 Springfield Armory XD Black raises the bar. Built with a thermoplastic fiber surface made of extra thick vulcanized rubber, this mat gives you a resilient, cushioned platform that protects both your firearm and your bench. It feels substantial under your hands but won’t mar finishes or fret small parts, so you can work with confidence.
The Ultra 20 is engineered for real maintenance sessions. Water-resistant, scratch proof, and fade and oil resistant, it stands up to harsh solvents, routine wear, and the occasional spill without losing its form or clarity. Dye-sublimation printing locks in the graphics so they won’t peel or flake over time, meaning the reference guides and artwork stay clear and readable no matter how many cleanings you run through. That durability translates directly into fewer interruptions and safer work.
One of the design’s smartest features is its oversized layout. You’ll have plenty of room to disassemble your handgun and lay out every component without shuffling parts from one cramped corner to another. The generous surface area makes organization intuitive — components don’t crowd each other, and small springs and pins are easier to spot against the mat’s subtle contrast. That extra space minimizes lost parts and speeds up reassembly, which any meticulous operator will appreciate.
Beyond utility, the Tekmat Ultra 20 balances form and function. The printed Springfield Armory XD guides are precise and helpful, offering a quick visual reference when you need it most. Dye-sublimation ensures the artwork looks sharp and professional, not cheap or temporary. Even after repeated exposure to cleaners and oils, the mat holds its appearance, so your bench keeps looking as capable as you are.
Portability and storage were part of the brief, too. The mat rolls up easily for travel or storage without creasing, so it’s simple to toss into a range bag or stash in a drawer between sessions. When you need a reliable surface at the bench, range, or while teaching someone the basics of maintenance, this mat shows up ready to work.
Safety and protection are never an afterthought. The thick vulcanized rubber construction helps protect your work surface from scratches and dings while offering a softer landing for delicate parts and tools. It reduces noise and keeps hardware from bouncing away when a spring pops free during disassembly.
