Are 2mm Spacers Ok For Large Tiles?

[gooty]

Is it ok to use 2mm spacers for tiles that are 300x600?

Are suretile spacers worth getting?

 

[Dougs Third Go]

walls or floors?

 

[hmtiling]

Not on floors with ufh. Think that's 3mm minimum

 

[Dougs Third Go]

I usually use 2mm on walls, but as above^^^ usually a 3mm minimum on floors.

As the other chaps have said, OK for walls. Another thing to check is how uniform the tiles are, I'm doing some 600x300's at the moment that vary in size by 1-2mm across a box so, I'd never be able to fit them with a 2mm spacer. Just about managing it with a 3mm and a big box of wedges!

EU rules say: rectified. min 2 mm. normal 3 mm min. UK but not in eu

I would go 3mm. I always use 3mm except when using small kitchen tiles, metro tiles, etc then 2mm

You are kidding aren't you? Typed it into Google and first hit was screwfix! As @Bri says, easier to just pop into your local store. Are you still trying to locate Suretile 3mm spacers?

 

[gooty]

Suretile???

[gooty]

Bad wording on my part.

What I'm trying to say is that I know you can get 3mm spacers, but suretile only sell 2mm or 4mm.

 

[Qwerty]

They are widely available everywhere so just ditch Suretile and go with a better brand
