## Description

Xiem Batmate is the perfect solution for annoying bat jitter and warping. Place Batmate below your problem bats on the wheel and instantly your warped bats become stable. It is also useful for trimming bowls and plates. Blue Batmate is 12" in diameter.

Review: Works well... but do we need the blue dye? - I've been throwing with this for 5 weekly sessions and love that I don't have to anchor my bats down with clay anymore! It works well with plastic and MDF bats, both solid and with hollow/textured bottoms, and with my new bat insert system. I've let it dry out between sessions, left it under the plastic with my pottery, seems to be fine both ways and no deterioration yet. The only weird thing is that when I leave it touching anything else absorbent (clay, chamois, MDF/wood) the blue dye leaks out of the batmate and into the adjacent material. The dye seems to burn out of the clay when fired, but the batmate now looks faded and bleach-spattered, which is FINE, but maybe either pick a waterproof dye or don't dye it? The tan base color is adequate :)
Review: The perfect bat mate - Love how this bat mate steadies the bat and takes the Eiffel out of throwing. Such a game changer.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is this made of?**
A: Some sort of rubberized material. I use it all the time when trimming. Love it

**Q: How do you use this for trimming? Does the plate or bowl just stay down?**
A: I have never used this for trimming. I use under the bat to keep the bat secure to the wheel when throwing on the wheel

**Q: Can you use this on a bat without pins?**
A: I havent tried that. But I dont think it will work, it isnt sticky enough. With a wheel head with no pins I would probably use clay to balance a warped bat.

**Q: Will this work on a 13 inch wheel?**
A: You can still use it but it won’t cover the entire wheel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The perfect bat mate
*by P***T on September 25, 2023*

Love how this bat mate steadies the bat and takes the Eiffel out of throwing. Such a game changer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great but runs
*by S***N on August 19, 2022*

It does a great job but the blue color leaches out and you can get blue dye in the water when you rinse it. I still recommend it but I think it would be more functional if they didn’t add coloring to it, as it runs. You’re supposed to store it damp and I made the mistake of wringing it out into my clay/slip water before using it again. You don’t want to do that. I don’t know what the ramifications would be if I’d used that slip, if any, so I tossed it. Too bad it doesn’t come in a natural un-dyed color. Small thing to know and it doesn’t come off on your work otherwise. But it’s something I hope may help someone else.
