** Using the James Machine as described in D2047 and as directed in UL 410 for floor covering materials (FCM) using a leather foot under dry conditions. The application of site-applied floor sealers, polishes and other types of finishes routinely used to maintain resilient flooring materials will change the walking surface and consequently the SCOF value.

Installation Special Precautions and Recommendations:
- Refer to the Commercial Luxury Vinyl Tile Flooring Installation System for complete installation recommendations.
- Armstrong Flooring S-1000 must be used in areas subject to direct sunlight, topical moisture, concentrated static and dynamic loads, temperature fluctuations and when installed over ceramic tile, terrazzo, marble, metal and polymeric (seamless) floors.
- Same dye lot not required within an installation.
- When installing planks, the end joints should be staggered a minimum of 6″ apart.
- When installing rectangles, the tile can be installed in block/tile fashion or offset tile joints by one-half tile.
- Can be installed over a single layer of existing resilient flooring.
- Do not install over existing below-grade tile.
- Armstrong Flooring commercial flooring is used in many applications where it is subjected to heavy concentrated static and dynamic loads.
