The Complete Guide to Record Slipmat

A quality record slipmat protects vinyl whilst enabling smooth playback. Explore materials, types and how to choose the best option for your turntable.

An Essential Vinyl Accessory

A record slipmat helps separate the record from the platter, improving grip, reducing wear and supporting smoother handling during playback. It is a straightforward accessory for anyone using a deck at home, in a studio or behind the booth.

Choice of Materials

The right record slipmat depends on how you play. Felt versions are popular with DJs for their low resistance, while cork, rubber and leather options can provide different levels of damping, static control and platter stability for a record slipmat setup.

Suitable for Every Listener

Whether you are beatmatching, scratching or simply listening to albums, a record slipmat can improve comfort and control. It is a small addition, but a good record slipmat can support better performance and help keep your vinyl in top condition.
