Rubber Wall Treatment for Range Sound and Ricochet Control

Every Mobile Range Technologies range comes standard with a 1-inch rubber wall treatment. The rubber panels reduce reflected noise, absorb impact energy, and protect walls from splash, debris, and wear. Unlike hard surfaces, rubber provides a non-metallic, energy-absorbing surface that can help reduce ricochet potential and secondary projectile movement compared to traditional hard wall materials.

This standard feature improves safety, durability, and operational efficiency across all of our mobile, modular, and panelized ranges. Call now or contact us online to learn more about how rubber wall treatment and our other standard features work together to create a professional, safe shooting environment.

How Rubber Walls Protect Ranges

The rubber wall treatment delivers multiple benefits beyond traditional hard wall surfaces. Here's what it does:

• Reduce reflected impulse noise within the shooting bay.
• Absorb impact energy from incidental contact.
• Reduce ricochet risk compared to hard wall surfaces.
• Protect structural walls from splash, debris, and abrasion.
• Improve durability and simplify cleaning.

Safety Benefits of Energy Absorption

Hard, reflective wall surfaces may contribute to ricochet and secondary projectile movement when projectiles strike at certain angles. The rubber wall treatment absorbs impact energy instead of reflecting it, creating a safer shooting environment with fewer secondary hazards.

This energy-absorbing approach provides safety benefits. Non-metallic surfaces can help reduce ricochet potential compared to hard wall surfaces. Energy absorption may also help reduce secondary projectile movement and impact fragmentation during live fire operations.

The rubber treatment works as part of a complete safety system alongside ballistic steel, the bullet trap, and air filtration. It is not designed to serve as primary ballistic containment—it functions as a sound and surface protection system that improves the overall safety environment.

Reduce Maintenance and Downtime

Rubber wall panels resist damage from splash, debris, and general wear better than hard surfaces. The wall structure experiences less deterioration over time.

This means reduced structural wear from daily operations, extended wall durability without major repairs, and simplified cleaning and maintenance procedures.

For ranges running qualifications, training classes, and high-volume shooting events, the rubber wall treatment reduces unexpected maintenance emergencies. Your range stays operational and professional-looking, with more predictable long-term costs and minimal downtime.

Part of a Complete Safety System

The rubber wall treatment works alongside these standard systems:

• Ballistic Steel: Primary ballistic containment system throughout the range.
• Sloped Granulated Rubber Bullet Trap: Safely decelerates projectiles and minimizes secondary debris.
• Sound Attenuation Foam: Creates comprehensive noise control throughout the range.

Standard on All Shooting Ranges

The 1-inch rubber wall treatment is included as standard equipment on every Mobile Range Technologies range: Road Runner, Road King, Double Road King, modular ranges, and Panel Pro series.

Each range ships ready to operate with a complete, safety-focused shooting environment already in place. No upgrades needed.

Important Safety Notice

Rubber wall treatments are intended for sound control and surface protection and are not designed to serve as primary ballistic containment or backstop surfaces.
