TekMat for Springfield Echelon Cleaning Mat - Black - TEK-R17-ECHELON - 198954014782
Product Description
Field stripping and cleaning modern striker-fired pistols like the Springfield Echelon on unprotected workbenches risks scratching delicate slide finishes, marring polymer grip modules, and losing small components such as assembly pins and detents. Furthermore, aggressive gun cleaning solvents, bore oils, and carbon removers can penetrate unsealed bench surfaces, leaving permanent stains and chemical residue. The TekMat Ultra Premium Cleaning Mat for the Springfield Echelon (TEK-R17-ECHELON) resolves surface protection and component tracking constraints by providing a padded, oil-resistant bench mat featuring a high-definition exploded parts schematic of the Echelon platform.
Constructed with a soft 1/8-inch (3mm) vulcanized rubber core topped with a thermoplastic fiber surface, the TekMat cushions your handgun components against hard work surfaces while preventing roll-away during detail stripping. The dye-sublimated surface graphics feature an extended parts diagram and lubrication point layout that will not rub off, chip, or fade when exposed to harsh CLP solvents, bore cleaners, or continuous abrasion.
Sized at a spacious 11" x 17" layout, the TEK-R17-ECHELON provides ample workspace for your field-stripped slide, Central Operating Group (COG) chassis, barrel, recoil assembly, and disassembled magazines. Featuring stitch-reinforced outer edges that prevent fraying over long-term shop use, it rolls up easily for storage in range bags or gun maintenance kits.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Application & Platform Layout Matrix: Features an accurate, high-definition exploded parts schematic tailored specifically for the Springfield Armory Echelon 9mm Platform (including variable sight system plates, COG chassis module, and frame assemblies).
Bench Maintenance & Care Sequence:
- Safety check the firearm: remove magazine, lock slide rearward, and physically/visually inspect chamber to verify clear weapon before placing on mat.
- Unroll the TekMat on a flat, clean surface; non-slip rubber backing anchors the mat firmly to wood, metal, or plastic workbenches.
- Disassemble firearm parts and group them according to schematic sections printed on the mat surface.
- Wipe away solvent spills or oil pooling promptly using a dry shop rag or paper towel.
- For routine mat cleaning: Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap, rinse thoroughly, and air dry flat before rolling for storage.
