Schluter QUADEC MC Chrome Plated Square Edge Tile Trim

Description Schluter QUADEC MC Chrome Plated Square Edge Tile Trim is a premium square edge finishing profile that offers excellent edge protection for external corners of tiled walls. The visible area of the profile forms a right angled external corner for tile coverings. Available in the following internal height sizes: 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 11mm, 12.5mm and 15mm. All sizes come in 2.5 metre lengths. Schluter QUADEC MC Chrome Plated Square Edge Tile Trim is made from chrome plated solid brass with a mirror finish, especially well suited for wall corners and transitions. It is ideal for matching chrome fixtures. Surface areas must be protected against abrasion or scratching. Remove mortar and grout residue immediately. Matching prefabricated corner pieces, made from either solid chrome plated brass or die-cast metal, are available for internal and external corners for simple and appealing corner connections. Installation: Select the profile height of Schluter QUADEC MC Chrome Plated Square Edge Tile Trim according to the tile thickness and the installation method. Apply tile adhesive to the area where the tile covering will end, using a notched trowel. If Schluter QUADEC MC is to be installed in an external wall corner, complete the tiling of one wall, then apply tile adhesive in the corner area of the second wall. Press the perforated anchoring leg of Schluter QUADEC MC firmly into the adhesive and align it. Trowel additional adhesive over the perforated anchoring leg to ensure full coverage and fill the profile chamber with tile adhesive. Fully embed the adjoining tiles and adjust them in such a way that the upper lip of the profile is flush with the tile. Note: The profile may slightly protrude or be recessed in the wall area to offset dimensional variations in the covering material. In floor areas, the profile should not be higher than the tiled surface, but rather up to approx. 1 mm lower. The tile is set to the lateral joint spacer, which creates an evenly spaced joint of 1.5 mm. In the case of stainless steel or brass profiles, a joint of approx. 1.5 mm is recommended. Fill the joint completely with grout. Use suitable materials and tools for the sensitive surfaces to avoid scratches or other damage. Setting materials must be removed immediately. Matching preformed inside and outside corner pieces are available. Maintenance: Schluter QUADEC MC Chrome Plated Square Edge Tile Trim requires no special maintenance or care. Abrasive cleaners should not be used on sensitive surfaces. Use conventional polishes to remove the oxidation layer on aluminium; however, oxidation will reoccur. Applying lacquer can repair anodised layers. Product Datasheet Click here to view this product on the Manufacturers website.
