Why a Pulling Iron Is Critical for Timber Flooring


Timber and timber-look flooring systems rely on tight locking joints to perform correctly over time. Poor joins can lead to:

  • Visible gaps between boards

  • Movement or noise underfoot

  • Premature wear on locking systems

  • An uneven or unprofessional finish


A pulling iron allows installers to pull boards together securely along walls, doorways, and final rows — areas where precision is most difficult.


Designed Specifically for Timber Floor Installation


The Imperial Flooring Pulling Iron is engineered for the realities of modern timber floor laying. Unlike lightweight or generic tools, it provides controlled pulling force while helping protect pre-finished boards during installation.


This makes it ideal for:

  • Engineered timber flooring

  • Laminate flooring

  • Hybrid flooring

  • Timber-look floating floors


Key Features That Improve Timber Floor Laying Results

Non-marking cork backing

The cork backing helps protect timber flooring surfaces from scratches and marks while applying pressure — especially important when working with pre-finished or premium boards.


Raised tapping block

The raised tapping block allows controlled tapping when required, helping installers seat boards correctly without damaging edges or locking systems.


Large hooked end

Designed to distribute pulling pressure evenly, the hooked end helps achieve tight, consistent joins across each board.


Heavy-duty steel construction

Built for trade use, the Imperial Flooring Pulling Iron delivers strength and durability without flexing under load.


Built for Professionals, Trusted by Installers


Timber floor installation is often one of the final stages of a project — and one of the most visible. Using the right tools reduces installation time, minimises mistakes, and improves the finished appearance of the floor.


The Imperial Flooring Pulling Iron is designed by flooring specialists who understand real job-site conditions and installer requirements.

  • Professional flooring installers

Whether you’re completing a single room or a full timber floor installation, the right pulling iron makes a measurable difference.
