TECHNICAL TEST RESULTS
ASTM (AMERICAN SOCIETY for TESTING and MATERIALS) SPECIFICATION and METHODS
Dynamic Coefficient of Friction (DCOF) - Water, oil, grease or other fluids create slippery conditions. When installing floors1-
in areas with exposure to these conditions, a minimum D.C.O.F. volue of 0.42 is required. Additionally, extra caution is required with
regards to product selection and proper maintenance. Visit www.tcnatile.com for complete information regarding the DCOF
Acutest test method and values.
DCOF AcuTest is the industry designation for the test procedure contained in ANSI A137.1 Section 9.6, which has been2-
extensively researched, allows for in-situ field measurements, and is in use at tile manufacturing facilities.
It was so named to distinguish it from other DCOF measurements using different instruments and/or protocols.
