Application

Specifically designed for use with mosaic tiles.


  1. Select EAM according to tile thickness. 
  2. Trowel tile adhesive over the area that forms the perimeter of the tiled covering. 
  3. Press the perforated anchoring leg of the EAM, into the tile adhesive and align, mechanical fix if required. 
  4. Trowel additional adhesive over the perforated anchoring leg to ensure full coverage. 
  5.  Solidly embed the tiles so that the tiled surface is flush with the top of the profile, this profile should not be higher than the tiled surface, but rather up to approx. 1mm lower. 
  6. Fill the joint completely with grout. 


Description

Square trim:

A square face, extruded aluminium profile designed to protect the edges of mosaics, designed with twin flanges to offer improved anchorage. One of the flanges can be easily removed to achieve an end stop.

This is useful in applications where the corners are not 90° and widens the scope for installations - such as an edge trim on the vertical with wall tiles, on the horizontal with floor tiles or as a feature strip in wall or floor tiling applications. The suitability of aluminium must be determined if chemical or mechanical stresses are anticipated.


Round trim:

Similar to square trim except with a rounded quadrant face. This extruded aluminium profile also has twin flanges to offer improved anchorage.

One of the flanges can be easily removed to suit applications where the corners are not 90°, this widens the scope for installations such as an edge trim on the vertical with wall tiles, on the horizontal with floor tiles or as a feature strip in wall or floor applications.


Internal trim:

Features a reduced visible area (4.5 x 4.5 mm) for a neater finish.
