Schluter QUADEC ED/Q outside corner decorative profile

SchluterQUADEC

Application and Function

SchluterQUADEC is a high-quality finishing profile for wall edge corners on tile coverings and provides good edge protection. The visible surface of the profile forms a right-angled external corner of the tile covering.

The integrated joint bar in the aluminum profiles creates a defined joint chamber in front of the tile.

The profiles, available in various materials, colors, and surface finishes, allow for matching the edge colors of the covering to the tile and joint colors or creating interesting contrasts for decorative purposes. SchluterQUADEC and –A harmonize well with the edging profiles SchluterQUADECFS or SchluterDESIGNLINE. In addition to the decorative effect of the profiles, the tiles in the edge area are effectively protected from damage caused by mechanical impacts.

SchluterQUADEC made of stainless steel is particularly durable as a edge protector and can also be used as a floor edge, decorative inlay in the floor area, or stair edge.

Similarly, SchluterQUADEC can be used to create edges, corners, or skirting board covers on other covering materials such as carpet, parquet, natural stone tiles, or epoxy resin screeds. For simple and neat connections of the SchluterQUADEC profiles at interior and exterior corners, suitable shaped parts are available.

For the easy and neat connection of the SchluterQUADEC profiles at interior and exterior corners, suitable shaped parts as well as connectors and end caps are available for selected materials.

Processing

1. Select SchluterQUADEC according to the tile height
2. Where the tile covering is to be limited, apply tile adhesive with a notched trowel. When processing SchluterQUADEC at an external wall corner, first tile a wall, then apply tile adhesive in the corner area of the second wall.
3. Press the perforated mounting bracket of SchluterQUADEC into the adhesive bed and align it.
4. Fill the perforated mounting bracket completely with tile adhesive and fill the open profile chamber with tile adhesive.
5. Press the adjacent tiles firmly and align them so that the top edge of the profile is flush. The tiles must be fully laid in the profile area.
6. The tile is placed against the side joint bar, ensuring a uniform joint of 1.5 mm. For stainless steel profiles, leave a joint of approximately 1.5 mm. Completely fill the joint space between the tile and the profile with joint mortar.
7. Process sensitive surfaces with material and tools that do not cause scratches or damage. Remove dirt caused by mortar or tile adhesive immediately.
8. For interior and exterior corners, suitable corner pieces are available.
