What are Slipmats?
.jpg)
Slipmats, or as they are called in German "Plattenspielerauflage," have several functions. A Slipmat resembles a vinyl record and has the same size as one. Usually made of felt, sometimes also made of neoprene, it serves the following functions:
- Reduction of vinyl record friction
- Protection of the vinyl record
- Enables DJ techniques that would not be possible without a Slipmat, such as scratching, backspin, etc...
- Improvement of aesthetics
- Reduction of static charge
- Protection of the turntable motor
Especially the DJ techniques used in the Hip Hop/Rap sector would damage records over time without a proper Slipmat. During a scratch movement, a Slipmat stops the record while the motor of the turntable continues to move. The record essentially slides over the platter.
Here is a brief demonstration video showing how a Slipmat works:
Style for Turntables
In addition to functionality, a turntable felt mat naturally should also look appealing. They are available in all imaginable designs and colors, so there should be something to suit every taste. Since the Slipmat is also visible during performances, it can naturally also serve as a DJ's emblem or as advertising for a specific brand.
For example, Technics Slipmats are extremely popular simply because the turntable itself is a legend and is still present in numerous DJ setups. And to make sure everyone sees that you're using a Technics turntable, you can further emphasize this with a matching mat.
Materials of Slipmats
Commercial Slipmats are made of felt. The material is "vinyl-friendly" and the slip ability is very good. However, not everyone wants these characteristics but has other preferences. Additionally, static charge is naturally highest with felt.
There are also cork Slipmats. These can enhance their antistatic properties and at the same time upgrade the sound, as they are highly resonance-reducing. But even the true Hi-Fi vinyl lover will be happy with Neoprene Slipmats. These offer equivalent features, albeit being more cost-effective in production, which also reflects on the price.
You can also drastically reduce the basic charge - regardless of the material of the Slipmat - through vinyl record washing. You can naturally find suitable devices and materials in our shop.
Designs
As mentioned above, Technics Slipmats are very popular. But other designs and styles also push your DJ show forward. For example, Zomo Slipmats are partly made with a special printing process and patterns that can fully showcase their effectiveness in stroboscope light. So, the turntable with the Slipmat becomes part of your stage show.
Quality
Our Slipmats are produced in a specialized printing process in a renowned facility in Belgium. In addition to high quality and durable printing, excellent materials are used to offer you the best possible turntable experience. Since we produce Slipmats in larger quantities, we can pass on the price advantages directly to you. So, our prints are not only of high quality but can also convince with an excellent price-performance ratio.
Custom Slipmat Printing
It is also possible to print Slipmats with your own logo or design. Please note that the minimum order quantity is 100 Slipmats. Below this number, it is unfortunately not worthwhile to produce custom Slipmats. If you are interested in your own Slipmats, you can contact our support team at info@recordcase.de or by phone at: 09951-690190. Further assistance will be provided to you.
