The Pro-Ject 12 Inch Felt Mat is a replacement platter mat designed for use with Pro-Ject turntables that feature a 12-inch platter. Made from high-quality felt, it sits between the vinyl record and the turntable platter, providing cushioned support that helps protect record surfaces from scratches during playback.
What a Felt Platter Mat Does
A platter mat plays a practical role in vinyl playback. By sitting between the record and the metal or acrylic platter, it absorbs minor surface vibrations and prevents the record from sliding during playback. Felt mats are a traditional choice: they are low in static build-up compared to rubber alternatives, allow the record label to clear the mat surface, and are lightweight enough not to affect platter inertia.
12 Inch Format
This mat is sized for 12-inch turntable platters, making it compatible with larger Pro-Ject models that use a 12-inch platter rather than the Debut-series standard size. If you are unsure which size fits your turntable, refer to your turntable manual or check the platter diameter.
Available in Multiple Colours
Pro-Ject offers this mat in a choice of five colours: Black, Blue, Green, Red, and Yellow. Whether you prefer the classic look of black or want to add a splash of colour to your turntable setup, there is an option to suit your preference. All colours are the same mat in every other respect.
