What does a 20mil Wear Layer mean?
A 20mil wear layer typically refers to the thickness of the top layer of a luxury vinyl plank (LVP) or luxury vinyl tile (LVT) flooring product. The wear layer is the protective coating on the surface of the LVP or LVT that helps to resist scratches, stains, and wear over time.
Thickness Matters
A 20mil wear layer means that this protective layer is 20 thousandths of an inch thick, or about 0.02 inches. The thicker the wear layer, the more durable and long-lasting the flooring will be, as it can better withstand heavy foot traffic, furniture, and other wear and tear.
Overall Thickness + Backing
The wear layer thickness is just one of several factors to consider when choosing an LVP or LVT flooring product. Other important factors include the overall thickness of the plank or tile, the quality of the backing and core layers, and the product's installation method.
