INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR CERAMIC AND STONE TILE

FINISHING, EDGE PROTECTION, AND TRANSITIONS

Because ceramic and stone tiles are

inherently brittle, their exposed edges can

chip and crack if left unprotected. Transitions

between floor surfaces and at thresholds are

particularly vulnerable to damage. Schluter-

Systems offers a variety of profiles to

provide edge protection and transitioning at

thresholds and between adjacent surfaces,

resulting in durable, maintenance-free tiled

coverings. The profiles can be grouped into

two categories: transitions between same-

height surfaces and transitions between

different-height surfaces.

Application and Function

Same-height Transitions

1.1 Schluter

-SCHIENE is designed to

provide edging for tile coverings. Typical

applications include edge protection where

tile is bordered by carpet, at expansion

joints, or as a decorative edging for stairs.

SCHIENE is available in stainless steel,

solid brass, aluminum, and anodized

aluminum. The profile features a trapezoid-

perforated anchoring leg, which is secured

in the mortar bond coat beneath the tile,

and an 87° sloped vertical wall section

that transfers point loads to the substrate

and surface covering while protecting tile

edges from damage. SCHIENE, in solid

brass, aluminum, and anodized aluminum,

features a 5° sloped top flange and fillet at

the anchoring leg/vertical section interface

to enhance edge protection by reducing

stresses on the tile, and, in sizes greater

than 1/4" (6 mm), features an integrated

joint spacer that establishes a defined joint

cavity between the tile and the profile. The

anchoring leg of SCHIENE, in all materials, is

available with a special radius perforation “R”

so that the profile can be used to form curves.

1.6 Schluter

-DECO is designed to

provide decorative lines within tile coverings

and edge protection at transitions from tile

coverings to other same-height surface

coverings, such as wood or carpet. The

profile is available in stainless steel, solid

brass, chrome-plated solid brass, and

anodized aluminum. DECO features a

trapezoid-perforated anchoring leg, which is

secured in the mortar bond coat beneath the

tile, and a 1/4" (6 mm)-wide visible surface

that meets the high aesthetic requirements

of showrooms, lobbies, galleries, exhibition

booths, etc. The anchoring leg of DECO,

in solid brass, chrome-plated solid brass,

and anodized aluminum, is available with

a special radius perforation “R” so that the

profile can be used to form curves. DECO

in chrome-plated brass requires a relatively

large bending radius.

f l o o r pr ofile s 1.3 Schluter®-RENO-T is designed to provide transitions between existing same-height, hard-surface floor coverings (e.g., ceramic tile or natural stone, parquet flooring, concrete pavers, laminate, etc.), primarily in retrofit applications. The profile is available in stainless steel, solid brass, and anodized aluminum.

floor profiles Stainless steel profiles are roll-formed, resulting in a slightly different contour from those made of extruded brass or aluminum. Stainless steel can sustain high mechanical stresses and is particularly well suited for applications requiring resistance against chemicals and acids; for example in the food industry, breweries, dairies, commercial kitchens, and hospitals, as well as in residential applications. Typically, the profiles are formed using stainless steel 304 (1.4301 = V2A) .
