Carlisle Tweed Wide Plank Flooring
TWEED WIDE PLANK FLOORING
TWEED WIDE PLANK FLOORING
Tweed is the wide plank floor equivalent of a professor’s tweed jacket – traditional and dependable, but with a hint of informality.
The white oak plank’s natural grain provides visual texture and pattern beneath the soft, brown finish. Tweed adds a feeling of inviting comfort to any room.

USE
Indoor
SURFACE
Wood subfloors that allow for nailing (at industry prescribed schedule) require at minimum; the use of a caulking gun (such as Wakol MS 265) adhesive bead, applied across the full width of the planks at intervals of 8-12” in addition to mechanical fastening. Full-spread wood flooring adhesive applied by trowel to the substrate surface is recommended and will provide the most optimal method of glue-assist
MANUFACTURING PROCESS
-Product must be made in the USA -Hot glue process for engineered structure -Multi-point individual board press laminating process

SUBFLOOR REQUIREMENTS
-Subfloor must be flat. Level and flat to within 3/16” in 10’. Check with your installer with regard to specific require- ments that intended underlayment and/or adhesives may require that are different than this specification. -Floor must have all loose debris, paint, drywall material or other material,removed that may impact appropriate adhesion of the flooring material to the substrate structure. -Concrete substrates must be dry. Dry- ness of substrate must be measured and documented (photographed), and dated using appropriate testing meth-ods. Relative Humidity testing (ASTM F2170) must not exceed 75%. Calcium Chloride testing (ASTM F1869) must not exceed 3lbs of moisture emission per 1000sf over a 24 hour period.
DETAIL
-Flooring should be installed in the direction recommended by the Architect or Designer or parallel to the longest wall. -Expansion space of at least ½” is required around the perimeter of the installation in each room.
-Installation using full-spread glue requires the of use appropriate surface weight to properly set the individual board into the adhesive. Adhesive transfer of 95% or more to the bottom of the plank is required and must retain contact with the adhesive and substrate once dry and cured.
-5 gallon buckets filled with sand or water are most commonly used for this purpose. Depending on adhesive requirement weights can typically be redistributed after 20 minutes.-Depending on subfloor conditions and nature of the adhesive the use of shims may be required to ensure flush edge and end joint configuration
