Built from solid recycled HDPE and designed with an innovative overlapping flange system, Defender MD creates a stable, connected surface capable of supporting cranes, concrete pump trucks, excavators, telehandlers, and loaded haul trucks across sensitive or unstable ground.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnlike traditional plywood or standard butt-edge mats, Defender MD’s interlocking overlap distributes weight across the entire mat system to reduce rutting, eliminate separation, and prevent mud seepage between panels. The result is a stronger, more reliable temporary roadway or work platform that protects turf, job sites, and finished surfaces while improving equipment stability.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt just 90 pounds per mat, Defender MD delivers exceptional strength in a hand-deployable design. Two workers can install the mats without forklifts or heavy machinery, helping crews reduce labor costs and speed up setup times. Integrated hardware connections allow rapid assembly in both roadway and work pad configurations, making the system adaptable for construction, utility, crane, tree care, and infrastructure projects.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDual-sided traction surfaces provide dependable grip for rubber-tired and tracked equipment while maintaining safer footing for crews on wet or uneven terrain. The durable HDPE construction resists rot, splintering, chemicals, and UV degradation for long-term performance in demanding environments.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; height: 205.938px;\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eGD-D-MD1-G\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eCore Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eOverall Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1.3 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e39.5″ × 75″ (3.25' × 6.25')\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eUsable Surface Area\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e17.5 sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e90 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eCompression Capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e150 Tons\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eRecycled HDPE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 10px; text-align: center;\"\u003eHandling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 10px; text-align: center;\"\u003e2-person lift\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.4911%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.6518%; height: 19.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003eLifetime\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"DICA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52293148705051,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/0875\/8299\/files\/Defender_45_transparent.png?v=1780569471","url":"https:\/\/liftingequipmentstore.us\/es\/products\/dica-defender-md-ground-protection-mats","provider":"Lifting Equipment Store USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
