Profile for the stepless transition of floor coverings with different heights, especially when the tiled surface is higher than the adjacent covering, e.g. the transition between tile and carpet. The visible surface area of RENO-TK is sloped, preventing trip edges between coverings of different heights.
The 6 mm sloped profile chamber hides and protects the cut edge of lower adjoining surface coverings (e.g. carpet, vinyl flooring).
Material
The profile is available in the material types:
- E = Stainless steel, 1.4301 (V2A)
- EB = Brushed stainless steel
- A = Aluminum
- M = Brass
- AE = Anodised aluminum
Installation
- Select RENO-TK sloped prifile according to tile thickness.
- Trowel tile adhesive over the area that forms the perimeter of the tiled covering.
- Press the trapezoid perforated anchoring leg of the profile firmly into the adhesive and align it.
- Trowel additional adhesive over the perforated anchoring leg to ensure full coverage.
- Solidly embed the tiles so that the tiled surface is flush with the top of the profile (the profile should not be higher than the tiled surface, but up to approximately 1 mm lower).
- A joint of approximately 2 mm - 3 mm should be left between the tile and the profile.
- Fill the joint completely with grout.
Maintenance
RENO-TK does not require any special maintenance. Oxidation films on brass or aluminium may be removed with a common polishing agent; however, they do reoccur. Damaged anodised finishes may only be repaired by recoating.
Stainless steel surfaces exposed to the environment or aggressive substances should be cleaned periodically using a mild household cleaner. Regular cleaning maintains the neat appearance of stainless steel and reduces the risk of corrosion. All cleaning agents must be free of hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acid.
Avoid contact with other metals such as steel, since this can cause rust. This also includes tools such as trowels or steel wool, i.e. tools used to remove mortar residue.
We recommend the use of the stainless steel cleaning polish Schlüter CLEAN-CP.
