About Tile Leveling Wades

Tile Leveling Wedges and Clips Description: Tile leveling wedges and clips are essential tools used in tile installation to ensure a flat, even surface and eliminate lippage (height difference between adjacent tiles). Tile Leveling Clips: Purpose: These clips are placed underneath the tiles during installation. Function: They maintain consistent spacing between tiles and hold the tiles at the same height. Material: Usually made from durable plastic. Design: Each clip has a flat base that goes under the tile and a vertical loop or slot where the wedge is inserted. Tile Leveling Wedges: Purpose: Used in combination with the clips. Function: The wedge is inserted through the clip slot and tightened to press the tiles into the adhesive, ensuring a flat surface. Reusable: Wedges are often reusable for multiple installations. Material: Also made from strong plastic, designed to resist bending or breaking under pressure. How They Work Together: Spread adhesive and place the first tile. Slide the clip under the edge of the tile. Lay the next tile adjacent to the first, over the clip base. Insert the wedge into the clip and push until the tiles are level. Once the adhesive sets, break off the exposed part of the clip (usually by kicking or using a mallet), leaving the tile surface smooth
