Schluter®-SCHIENE is designed to provide edging for tile coverings.
- Prevents tiles from chipping
- Ideal for creating transitions on floors
- Features an approximately 1/8″ (3 mm)-wide visible surface for discreet transitions
- 87° slope to transfer point loads and protect tile edges
- Anchoring leg is available with a special radius perforation so that the profile can be used to form curves
- Available in select finishes.
SCHIENE is available in stainless steel, solid brass, aluminum, color-coated aluminum, textured color-coated 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, color-coated aluminum, textured color-coated 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.
