Specifications
The Dynamic Coefficient of Friction is a rating of the slip resistance of a floor. It is a measurement of how much friction there is on a floor when walked upon. The higher the number, the more slip resistant.
>=.42Though absorption rate may vary, product rated greater than 0.5% is not recommended for outdoor installation, but can be used indoors. All tile is recommended for interior use.
0.60 -3 PercentMost manufacturers use the MOHS scale to test the scratch and abrasion resistance of the glaze applied to tile. The MOHS scale is based on a relative value of 1-10; with 1 being the softest and 10 being the hardest. The following are the ten standard minerals used in the scale. 1. Talc, 2. Gypsum, 3. Calcite, 4. Fluorite, 5. Apatite, 6. Orthoclase, 7. Quartz, 8. Topaz, 9. Corundum, 10. Diamond.
9Waterproof and water-resistant designations refer to the product’s ability to withstand moisture and spills. Waterproof or water-resistant tile is suitable for all rooms in the house including kitchens, basements, and bathrooms. Some tile requires sealing during the installation process in order to withstand exposure to water. All tile must be installed properly for these conditions to be met.
Water Resistant (with proper sealant)Tile's ability to withstand freeze-thaw cycles when directly exposed to the elements.
