Raimondi 5/16″ Slanted Notched Trowels
The slanted and rounded notch provides many advantages
Features
- When placing the tile on an adhesive spread with a slanted ridge, the ridges overlap and collapse to provide superior adhesive coverage on the back of the tile vs. a standard notched trowel
- 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 collapsible ridge provides maximum coverage and is even more valuable in cases where bond failure is more prevalent, such as large format tile installations (8″ x 8″ and up), high moisture areas such as pools & spas, and installations subject to extremes in temperature (i.e., exterior installations, or installations beneath large windows)
- The rounded shape of the notch reduces the chance of the adhesive “binding” and ripping away the ridges while troweling
- The adhesive does not bind in the rounded corners of this notch so the adhesive ridges stay intact
- Top-quality made in Italy, 22 gauge Stainless steel
- Handle base is made of polished aluminum electro-welded to the blade and fastened by a non-slip screw
- Anti-slip, comfortable rubber handle
- The trowel weight is 12 oz
