  • 9-inch plank width
  • 12mm total thickness
  • AC5 abrasion classification
  • Waterproof construction where verified
  • Attached acoustic backing
  • Textured wood-grain surfaces
  • Residential warranty

  • Authentic laminate construction
  • Verified 72-inch plank length
  • Confirmed plank width
  • Published total thickness

Benefits of 72-Inch Laminate

Depending on the complete product, benefits may include:

  • Extra-long hardwood appearance
  • Fewer end joints
  • Greater visual continuity
  • Wide-plank proportions
  • Large grain patterns
  • Thick total construction
  • Heavy-duty abrasion ratings

Length does not make flooring more scratch resistant.

72-Inch Laminate for Large Rooms

Six-foot planks may suit:

  • Great rooms
  • Open living areas
  • Large dining rooms
  • Primary bedrooms
  • Long hallways
  • Luxury apartments
  • Condominiums where approved
  • Finished basements where approved

Large rooms allow more full-length boards to remain visible.

Handling Six-Foot Planks

Plan for:

  • Freight delivery
  • Long carton storage
  • Stairway turns
  • Elevator dimensions
  • Doorway access
  • Climate-controlled staging
  • Full-length support
  • Careful joint handling

Long planks should not be carried by one unsupported end.

Subfloor Flatness

A flat substrate helps support:

  • Long plank centers
  • Locking edges
  • End joints
  • Consistent footfall
  • Stable installation
  • Warranty requirements

Six-foot planks cannot safely bridge major low areas.
