Material
Schlüter®-DILEX-EK and Schlüter®- DILEX-RF consist of a material combination of recycled rigid PVC for the lateral anchoring legs and soft CPE for the expansion zone of the tongue and groove connection. The visible areas are of identical colour.
Material properties and areas of application
Schlüter®-DILEX-EK and Schlüter®- DILEX-RF are used as corner movement profiles for floor/wall transitions of tile coverings installed in the thin-bed method. The material is resistant to the chemical stresses that are typically associated with tile coverings.
The CPE material is UV- and weatherresistant as well as specially treated to resist fungal and bacterial growth and suited for contact with food. CPE stands out for its resistance to a variety of acids, alkalis, oils, fats and solvents. In special cases, the suitability of the selected profile type must be verified based on the anticipated chemical, mechanical, and/or other stresses.
