The base plate is constructed in one single piece and is convex throughout. It is mounted to the construction frame by welding, gluing, bolting, or riveting. Its is allowed to affix securely to the frame some ballasts, in order to reach the maximum permitted weight limit. Also in this case, there are really restrictive criteria for the runners. To make them a standard material is chosen by FIBT and is supplied as polished round bars with a diameter of 16 mm (h9 tolerance class) and a length of 1000 mm, −0/+50 mm. Markings are present on these materials, and they must be present on the runners, without any alteration. All types of treatment on the material are forbidden. The grooves and milled areas on the runners must be formed in such a way as to avoid any excessive damage to the ice surface of the track. The depths of the millings and grooves, measured from the surface of the ice, must not be greater than 2 mm. It is compulsory to include security bumpers in the front pate of the sled (on both sides), and between the saddle and the rear end of the sled.
