The drag mat works sand, topdressing and seed evenly into the sward and the aeration holes. It is flexible and follows the ground, leaving the surface itself unchanged.

At a glance

  • Chain-like flexible mat made of galvanised steel
  • 92 Ă— 120 cm, approx. 10 kg
  • Rounded edges, glides over the sward without damaging it
  • Pulled by hand using the rope and wooden handle, or with a ride-on mower, quad or small towing vehicle

What the drag mat is for

  • Working sand into the holes and the sward after aerating
  • Lightly working in overseed and creating the seed-to-soil contact the seeds need to germinate
  • Removing morning dew so the sward dries faster; this helps prevent fungal disease
  • Maintaining riding arenas, tennis courts and sports pitches

How to use it

  1. Mow the lawn as short as possible beforehand.
  2. Spread the sand or seed.
  3. Pull the mat across the area in lanes, then across them. The grass blades should stand free again afterwards.
  4. Finish any spots where sand is still lying on top with a brush.

After topdressing

As long as sand is still lying on the surface, mow with a rotary mower rather than a reel mower. Sand blunts the reel.

Levelling rake or drag mat?

Both work sand into the lawn, but each has its own strengths. The levelling rake has a rigid edge: it takes sand from the high spots and drops it into the hollows, levelling the surface as it goes. The drag mat is flexible and follows the ground: it spreads sand and seed evenly into the sward and the aeration holes without changing the surface.
