This version has 5-inch-wide planks measuring 48.03 inches long, with an overall thickness of 0.314 inches. A 20 mil wear layer and UV acrylic finish sit above the residential WPC core, and cork underlayment is attached underneath. The wood visuals have realistic texture and micro bevel edges for a smoother, less defined plank outline. COREtec says the WPC construction is intended to feel softer, warmer, and quieter underfoot. It gives households a wood-look option with routine care centered on sweeping and damp mopping rather than hardwood refinishing. ## Who it suits - Households wanting wood looks with a waterproof floor - Families looking for straightforward sweeping and damp-mop care - Basement rooms needing a floor approved for below-grade installation - Living rooms and bedrooms where a 5-inch plank suits the design ## Design notes The 5-inch width pairs with a 48.03-inch length for a wood-plank look with realistic surface texture. Micro bevel edges keep the plank outlines less pronounced. Color examples include Antique Oak, Black Walnut, Carolina Pine, and Gold Coast Acacia. Antique Oak has a vintage-style appearance inspired by historic American wood species. The collection spans different wood-species visuals, colors, and textures. ## Living with it Routine care means sweeping, cleaning up messes promptly, and damp mopping with a pH-neutral vinyl cleaner. Skip cleaners made to add shine, wax, or polish. The floor is usually installed as a floating click floor using its angle-tap system. Direct glue is another option for commercial or special-use settings. It can be installed above, on, or below grade, including basement levels. Attached cork underlayment is part of the plank construction. ## The warranty, in plain terms COREtec backs this line with a lifetime limited residential wear warranty and a 10-year limited medium commercial wear warranty. These address wear under their respective residential and commercial terms. The COREtec warranty document governs the coverage, limitations, and conditions that apply to each use. ## Questions ### What size are these planks?
