Application

Designed to protect the edges of ceramic tiles or similar hard finishes fitted in wall or floor installations.

ESA Installation

  1. Select ESA/EFA according to tile thickness. 
  2. Trowel tile adhesive over the area that forms the perimeter of the tiled covering. 
  3. Press the perforated anchoring leg of the ESA into the tile adhesive and align, mechanical fix if required. 
  4. Trowel additional adhesive over the perforated anchoring leg to ensure full coverage. 
  5. Solidly embed the tiles so that the tiled surface is flush with the top of the profile, the profile should not be higher than the tiled surface, but rather up to approximately 1 mm lower. 
  6. Fill the joint completely with grout.
