Schluter®-DILEX-EHK/-HKS

Installation

  1. Select Schluter-DILEX-EHK/-HKS according to tile thickness.
  2. Using a notched trowel, apply thin-set mortar to areas where the perforated anchoring legs will be placed.
  3. Press the perforated anchoring legs of profile into the mortar.
    Note: Accessories are installed before tile using a permanently elastic, waterproof adhesive. Prior to application, any contact-inhibiting substances (e.g., grease, etc.) must be removed. The connectors should overlap the profile ends by at least 3/8" (10 mm).
  4. Trowel additional setting material over the perforated anchoring legs to ensure full coverage and support of the tile edges.
  5. Solidly embed the tiles and align flush with the top of the profile, leaving a joint of approx. 1/16" - 1/8" (1.5 mm - 3 mm) between the tile and the profile.
  6. Fill the joint completely with grout or setting material.
