Benefits of SureFoot® Tailgate Mat

If you’re looking for a non-slip rubber mat for your horse trailer ramp, the SureFoot® Horse Tailgate Mat won’t disappoint. It’s made from a premium recycled rubber with a unique ridging design that provides excellent grip during loading and unloading. A sturdier grip means a less anxious horse, and less likelihood of injuries to horses and people.

The Horse Tailgate Mat also helps to protect the horse float ramp itself, providing a protective trailer mat barrier. Many horse transport businesses have come to rely on SureFoot® tailgate mats to support OH&S and animal wellbeing.

SureFoot® has developed two types of rubber mat for horse trailer ramps:

  • SureFoot® Premium Tailgate Mat – this is our bestselling horse tailgate mat. It’s designed to provide maximum grip on steeper inclines, and is a stylish, safety-enhancing addition to any horse float or ramp.
  • Deluxe Tailgate Mat – this is another non-slip horse float mat option with a thinner ridge and slightly different size. It’s more affordable than our premium SureFoot® Tailgate Mat.

Where to use the Horse Tailgate Mat

  • Horse floats
  • Goose necks
  • Horse trucks
  • Ramps

What is the Horse Tailgate Mat made from?

SureFoot® Tailgate Mats are made from the same durable rubber compound that all our equine rubber matting products are manufactured from. Available in two thicknesses and sizes, this hard wearing horse float rubber matting is designed to last many trips, and is backed by a three year warranty.

Customer reviews of SureFoot® Tailgate Mats

“Since installing the SureFoot® rubber matting, the horses seem to be much more comfortable and don’t resist walking over it. When using the loading ramp they are certainly more confident and don’t slip which makes loading so much easier. I’m really happy with the new SureFoot® matting, it lives up to expectations.”
