Ease of Installation

ARMOR-TUFF is easy to install by just about anyone. No special skills or tools are needed as the tiles can be put together using a rubber mallet. The trimming can be completed with standard hand or woodworking tools. The tiles can be cut quickly using an electric saw with a panel or fine-tooth blade. We do offer a special Magnum Cutter Shear, which can be used for large jobs with many cuts.

The Topcoat

The top coating of ARMOR-TUFF is not required and serve a cosmetic as well as functional purposes.

  • The topcoat adds a high-gloss finish.
  • Easier to clean.
  • Prevents staining.
  • Prevents scuffing from shoes and tires.
  • Helps to ‘weld’ the tiles together to make the joints more water-resistant.
  • Available in two versions - a standard version & a high solids version.

Note: Topcoats are solvent-based products and exude an odor when applied and take 1-2 days to cure fully. It can be re-applied at any time. Non-skid additives are available for the topcoat; please contact us for information and pricing.

The Adhesive

This high-performance adhesive can be used right out of the can and can be rolled on or applied with a notched trowel. It reacts with moisture in the air to expand and form a tight bond. It also helps prevent tile movement from sun exposure and higher loads such as pallet jacks. It is essential to be careful to avoid over-application under tile joints since ‘foaming up through the joints’ can occur. One gallon size of adhesive can cover about 250 square feet/gal.

Matched Interlocking Edging

Our Interlocking Edging has matched teeth, either T-Joint or Dovetail Joint, and the thickness of the tile you purchase. Sloping design transitions the tile height to the floor to help prevent falls and offer a clean edge.

Glue On-Ramp Edging

ARMOR-TUFF offers Glue On-Ramp Edging that has a ‘socket’ to insert the edge of your tile into with adhesive. Custom manufactured by us in black and gray colors (custom colors available, minimums apply), the socket accepts 5.5mm-7mm sizes only; they are not available for 4.5mm thick tiles. This type of edging is sold in 10-foot lengths only and can be cut/ trimmed on the field.
