What is the difference between “strip” flooring and “plank” flooring?
Strip flooring is solid wood boards that are installed in parallel rows. It can be ½”, ¾” and 33/32″ thick and 2 ¼” and 3 ¼” wide. It is tongue and grooved and end matched. It is for nail down installation directly to wood or plywood sub-floors or over wood screeds on concrete slab construction. Plank flooring is solid boards, usually ¾” thick and 3″ to 8″ wide designed to be installed in parallel rows.
