Raimondi Slant Ridge Notch Trowel
Slant Ridge Notched Trowel, Blade Size: 14 3/16” x 5 1/8” (36 x13 cm)
- The trowel is used to increase productivity and get the best coverage.
- 30% bigger blade compared with standard notched trowels.
- Perfect for professionals who want more efficient and consistent mortar scoring. Especially great for large areas of flooring installations; its large blade size increases the coverage for each pass by 30% vs a regular notched trowel.
- The special notch slant shape featuring rounded edges provides superior performance in terms of maximum coverage: when placing the tile on adhesive thin-set spread with a slanted ridge, the ridges overlap and collapse to provide superior adhesive coverage vs. a standard notched trowel and consequently avoid any air pocket under the tile/slab;
- Maximum coverage is even more valuable in cases where bond failure is more prevalent, such as large format tile installations, thin slabs (1/8” – 5/16”), high moisture areas such as pools & spas, and installations subject to extremes in temperature (i.e., exterior installations such outdoor floors, facades). Maximum coverage is the key to avoiding the detachment of tiles from the support.
- Superior adhesive bonding also increases the efficiency of floor heating systems since it removes air pockets that inhibit the transfer of heat to the flooring. The rounded shape of the notch reduces the chance of the thin-set “binding” and ripping away the ridges while troweling. The thin-set does not bind in the rounded corners of this notch, so the thin-set ridges stay intact.
- Anti-slip, comfortable, soft rubber ergonomic handle mounted on a die-cast aluminum core.
- Top quality 22-gauge Stainless steel, 100% rust-proof.
