What Wear Layer Means for Vinyl Plank Flooring
Wear layer is the number listed with every vinyl plank style ZT Doors carries, measured in mil. Across its vinyl plank range, ZT Doors carries two wear layer thicknesses: 12mil and 20mil. A third wear layer, 10 mil, is stocked too, but only in the Summit Collection, which ZT Doors carries as click lock and laminate flooring rather than vinyl plank.

Common Questions
Does a higher wear layer number mean a thicker plank?
Not necessarily. Wear layer, in mil, and plank thickness, in mm, are listed as separate attributes for every style. The Coastal Collection and the Woodland Collection both carry a 12 mil wear layer, but Coastal lists a 52mm thickness and Woodland lists 50mm.
Which collections carry a 20 mil wear layer?
The Foundation Collection, the Metropolitan Collection and the Core Collection. Foundation and Metropolitan are stocked as vinyl plank; Core is stocked as SPC tile, not vinyl plank.
Does ZT Doors stock a 10 mil wear layer in vinyl plank?
No. The 10 mil wear layer is stocked in the Summit Collection, which ZT Doors carries as click lock and laminate flooring, not vinyl plank.
What size is the 12 mil vinyl plank?
7x48. That is the stated size for both the Coastal Collection and the Woodland Collection, the two collections carrying a 12 mil wear layer in the vinyl plank range.
Is thickness stated for the 10 mil styles?
No. Thickness is not stated for the Summit Collection. Every 12 mil and 20 mil style lists a thickness in millimeters.
