Description

This formable aluminium tile edge trim is a flexible L-shaped profile designed to protect and finish exposed tile edges on stairs, steps and floor transitions. Supplied in a 2.7m length, it can be gently shaped on site to follow curves, corners and irregular layouts while maintaining a neat, professional edge.

Available in a range of heights to suit common tile thicknesses, this versatile edge protector helps prevent tile chipping and damage, improves safety at step edges, and gives a clean, defined line between tiled areas and adjacent floor coverings.

Product Features

  • Formable aluminium L-shaped profile for curved or straight tile edges.
  • Supplied in a 2.7m length for fewer joins and a continuous finish along edges and steps.
  • Available heights: 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm to suit a wide range of tile thicknesses.
  • Protects vulnerable tile edges on stairs, landings and floor transitions from chips and impact damage.
  • Pre-formed anchoring leg sits beneath the tiles to provide secure mechanical fixing in the adhesive bed.
  • Durable aluminium construction with good resistance to everyday wear in residential and light commercial settings.
  • Suitable for use with ceramic, porcelain and natural stone tiles in internal installations.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Improved edge protection: Shields exposed tile edges, helping to extend the life of stair treads and tiled floor finishes.
  • Neat, professional finish: Creates a straight, defined edge for a high-quality appearance on steps, risers and transitions.
  • Flexible installation: Formable profile can be carefully shaped to follow gentle curves or irregular layouts where rigid trims are unsuitable.
  • Safer step edges: Clearly defines stair and step edges to reduce the risk of trips caused by uneven or damaged tiles.
  • Multiple height options: Choice of 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm or 12mm variants allows closer matching to tile thickness for a flush finish.
  • Easy to cut and handle: Can be cut to length on site with appropriate tools, allowing accurate fitting around corners and obstacles.
