The higher the wear resistance level, the more durable the flooring is？

When the wear resistance of the floor is larger, does it mean that the floor is more durable?

The wear-resistant layer on the surface of SPC floor is a transparent wear-resistant layer processed by high-tech, and its wear-resistant rotation number can reach about 10,000 rpm. So what is the wear resistance number? Does this parameter determine the service life of the floor?

First of all, the wear resistance number is a representation of the floor wear resistance, generally expressed in revolutions. Judging whether the laminate flooring can be used as a wear-resistant floor is determined by the wear-resistant layer on the surface. In the process of processing the laminate flooring, the surface layer will be covered with a layer of aluminum oxide, and the aluminum oxide determines the wear resistance of the laminate floor. According to the national standard, the floor with the wear resistance of 4000 rpm and above reaches the household level 2 standard, the floor with the wear resistance of 6000 rpm and above reaches the household level 1 standard, and the floor with the wear resistance of 9000 rpm and above reaches commercial grade standard.

Second, the service life of the floor is closely related to the wear resistance of the floor, but it is not the deciding factor in determining the service life of the floor. The wear resistance number is actually an indicator reflecting the surface performance of the wooden floor. The durability of the floor needs to be considered from the combination of the strength of the floor, the thickness expansion of the water absorption, and the impact resistance.

Moreover, the wear resistance of the floor is not as large as possible. If the wear resistance of the floor is too high, the pattern of the floor will not be so fresh, natural, and the touch will be much lower.
