7'6 x 10'8 SImple Grip Rug Pad Keeping area rugs safe, comfortable and beautiful is as easy as simply adding a rug pad underneath. In addition to extra cushion underfoot, rug pads provide the safety of a stable, non-slip surface that helps prevent rugs from sliding around. Pads also keep rugs smooth, flat and wrinkle-free for added beauty and ease of vacuuming. Best of all rug pads help reduce wear, which can extend the life of your rugs for many years to come. Your rug pad should be an inch or two smaller than the rug. Be sure to verify the size of your rug and rug pad to ensure you purchase one that fits accurately. You may need to trim the pad with scissors or a razor to get an accurate fit.
