    The tread was cut off & then cut thru so we had a long strip of treadwidth rubber.
    Then we laid 3 tread strips on the floor & riveted a metal strip 3 treads wide onto each end, under the end of the strips.
    Solid, pretty much impervious to oil & solvents & hot metal, kept you off the concrete floor too (cold feet).
    Pick up & shake to get rid of dust & metal chips.
