Engineered Bamboo Technical Specifications
Product and Description:
| Engineered Bamboo flooring (Horizontal / Vertical) |
| Species: | Mao Zhu (Moso) (Phyllostachys Pubescens) |
| Size: | 1200x120x14MM |
| Edge: | Micro-bevel |
| Structure: | Top Wear Bamboo + Fir layer Core + Poplar layer |
| Finish: | All should be A Grade flooring and is finished with 8 coats ( 6 coats of primer and 2 coasts of surface ) of Treffert brand semi-gloss finish for the regular bamboo, scratch resistant, UV cured aluminum oxide urethane. |
| Height Difference: | Connected panels are to have NO visible height difference at any connected corner or along the seam (tolerance = 0.10mm) |
| Mouse Bites: | Milling tools must be sharp enough to eliminate the appearance of white lines or micro-chips along the long and short edges of the panels. Bare fingers tips running up and down the joint of connected panels will not feel shards caused by rough cutting |
| Function: | Locking system must connect on both long and short seams without difficulty and maintain a secure connection |
