Schluter®-DILEX-F
Schluter®-DILEX-F is a surface movement joint profile. The two-part system consists of a carrier profile with anchor legs made of rigid, recycled PVC, and a slim replaceable silicone inlay that mimics grout lines. When installed, it blends into any tile field for a seamless visible surface. The carrier profile (DILEX-FCS) has a protective cover that is removed after tile installation and replaced with the selected color of silicone inlay (DILEX-FIS). The inlay is approximately 1/8" (3 mm) wide when installed.

Uncoupling (DITRA)
Schluter®-DITRA & DITRA-XL
Schluter®-DITRA and DITRA-XL are specifically designed for ceramic and stone tile installations. DITRA and DITRA-XL provide uncoupling to prevent cracked tile and grout. Made of polyethylene, DITRA and DITRA-XL serve as a waterproofing layer that protects moisture-sensitive substrates, such as plywood/OSB. Free-space on the underside of the matting provides a route for excess moisture and vapor to prevent damage to the tile layer above. DITRA and DITRA-XL perform all these functions while still providing adequate support/load distribution for the tile covering.
