How to ID Baytown Oak on a carton
- Read the brand strip: it should say TrafficMaster (Home Depot laminate), not LifeProof, Pergo, Harmonics, Style Selections, Allure Ultra, or GripStrip.
- Match the color name Baytown Oak and model
HL704(or pallet formHL704-18). Do not invent a code from a “similar items” suggestion. - Copy UPC
664646305143when printed, plus thickness (~7 mm) and any dye lot / batch stamp. - Photograph the full carton end in daylight (brand strip, color, model, thickness, coverage, UPC, lot) before you buy leftovers or post a Match listing. Shot list: photograph the carton for Match.
- Color words alone are unreliable. Several TrafficMaster oak patterns from the same era share a medium-brown tone; the model string decides the match.

What will not match
- TrafficMaster Allure Ultra solid vinyl click, GripStrip adhesive Allure, and LifeProof rigid-core vinyl are different constructions even when oak words overlap (FlooringFX TrafficMaster colors notes).
- Warehouse-club Harmonics / Costco cartons that only look similar in a photo. If the strip says Harmonics, use the Costco / Harmonics reference instead of a Baytown Oak search.
- Other TrafficMaster oak marketing names that are not
HL704/ Baytown Oak on the carton end. - Any “close enough” click plank with a different brand strip, model string, thickness including pad, or locking profile. Dye-lot agreement does not override those mismatches. See locking systems and dye lots / batch codes.
