Schluter®-DILEX-AHK

Installation

  1. Select Schluter-DILEX-AHK according to tile thickness.
  2. Using a notched trowel, apply thin-set mortar to the area where the profile anchoring leg is to be placed.
  3. Press the perforated anchoring leg of the profile into the mortar and align.
  4. Trowel additional thin-set mortar over the perforated anchoring leg to ensure full coverage and support of the tile edges.
  5. Solidly embed the tiles so that the tiled surface is flush with the exposed surface of the profile. Set the tile to the integrated joint spacer, which ensures a uniform joint of 1/16" - 1/8" (1.5 mm - 3 mm).
  6. Trowel thin-set mortar over the adjoining surface where tile is to be placed.
  7. Solidly embed the tiles so that the tiled surface is flush with the exposed surface of the profile. Leave a space of approximately 1/16" - 1/8" (1.5 mm - 3 mm) between the tile edge and the profile.
  8. Fill the joints completely with grout or setting material.
