Manufacturing Technology
AZO Favorite Aerobic 1700 is manufactured as a proprietary Fiber V-loop very high density double needled 7/16" gauge velour construction from blended 100% heavy denier (18-240 d.p.f.) solution colored branded ASOTA olefin fibers, in a UV light fade- and chemical and mildew resistant product. The materials have a primary latex backing that extends to the middle of the carpet, but shall not extend to the pile fiber. For crush resistance and clean-ability the carpet shall not have a latex or acrylic finish impregnated face fiber so as to mask minimum presence of heavy denier fibers and lack of needling density.
A proprietary 9/16" NSF foam backing (sodium silicate foam rubber) for a total approx. 1" gauge.
Recommended Application
The NSF foam of AZO Favorite Aerobic 1700 does not bottom out like a conventional foam carpet backing. Favorite Aerobic is ideal for anti-fatigue applications, such as behind retail counters, in weight rooms (for free falling weights); for sports and aerobics applications, in healthcare physical rehabilitation facilities. The product is suitable for commercial recessed entrances. Favorite Aerobic is spike resistant and resists skis and skates.

Installation
Please consult detailed installation instructions. In order to avoid the separation of foam from the carpet, the edges must be protected by ramps. For dimensional stability the product must be glued down with TSC-300 adhesive or other high quality carpet adhesives. Indoor installations may be made with Sigaway® Original and have the benefit that Sigaway® sticks to the foam, allowing later removal of the Mammoth without leafing foam deposits on the sub-floor. Please note that perimeter taped loose lay carpet can expand and form irreversible creases under rolling loads.
Maintenance:
Use commercial high power dual motor beater bar type vacuum cleaners frequently. For periodic wet cleaning, use 140oF hot water extraction. For persistent soil use neutral, non film forming detergents, such as Taski R-50, by any accepted commercial wet carpet cleaning method. Follow detailed maintenance instructions.

Please consult details of limited warranty for UV resistance (outdoor applications); Commercial Abrasive Wear warranty; Spike and skate resistance Warranty.
