Easy Level System

i just looked at them on you tube they look good, how strong are the straps ?

In the video it shows a tool for removing the clips, but a simple kick to the side early removes them

Gary I've tried a few different systems and like them all they have a breaking point, which on these is quite a lot and once you've got used to them it's easy to know when your at the limit of tension, its the best system that I've came across

I tried a similar system but the straps seemed to give quite easily when tensioned ,I would like to give these a go to see what they are like

To help the straps sometimes I lift the lower tile with a bucket trowel till the required height and then clamp the strap, works very well

Sigma all day long

The only place I know is N&C, ProtilerTools on the net sell them but they have a curved bottom but sell the large clips.... whereas on the there site they show the straps with flat bases.

Protiler told me Genesis now make them with curved bases..find that hard to believe personally as N&C do the flat bases.

They do have a curved base, but with large formats you nearly always use at least a 12mm notch and that easily copes with the curve, I've never found it to be a problem

If you were using the Porcel thin or any other thinner tile for walls there could be a problem....

I have problems with raimondi on porcel thin
the new model raimondi , which is whiter than the previous one, is more flexible and breaks less

 

[LM]

Well that would come down to the bed depth of the adhesive imp and if you go too thin with that then I would be concerned about using levelling clips at all, as an all rounder for floors in particular I think this system is very good

I'm talking about the model 1.5mm , 1mm because the models are too fragile

After all these years the sigma v rubi debate is still raging on, up there with the chicken and the egg.

(Ps its rubi all the way!)

...up to 600mm porcelain after which it's Sigma
