EPM stainless steel notched trowel with wooden handle 480×130 mm tooth 8×8 (E-323-6483)

EPM stainless steel notched trowel with wooden handle 480×130 mm tooth 8×8 is a hand tool for applying adhesives, tile mortar and leveling compounds with consistent ridge height. The stainless steel blade resists corrosion and the wooden handle is shaped for a comfortable grip during repeated spreading motions. The 8×8 mm square notches create uniform adhesive beds suitable for medium-thickness tiles and flooring materials.

Advantages

The stainless steel construction provides long-term resistance to rust and wear, maintaining a flat, even blade edge for consistent application. The wooden handle absorbs some vibration and offers a traditional, ergonomic grip that reduces hand fatigue during extended use. The predetermined 8×8 mm square notch pattern ensures regular adhesive ridges for predictable coverage and better tile bonding.

Suitable for

• Applying tile adhesive for wall and floor tiles
• Spreading mortar or leveling compounds for medium-thickness substrates
• Installing ceramic, porcelain or natural stone tiles that require medium adhesive thickness
• General adhesive application where uniform ridge height is needed

Key specifications

• Blade material: stainless steel
• Blade dimensions: 480 × 130 mm
• Notch shape and size: square 8 × 8 mm
• Handle material: wood
• Intended use: adhesive and mortar spreading for tiling and flooring

How to use

Prepare the substrate according to the adhesive manufacturer's instructions and ensure the surface is clean and free of dust. Press the trowel into the adhesive at a shallow angle to form even ridges created by the 8×8 mm notches; maintain a consistent angle and pressure as you spread to ensure uniform coverage. After laying tiles into the adhesive bed, press and beat as recommended to achieve full contact and correct bedding depth. Clean the trowel blade with water and a cloth immediately after use to prevent hardening of residues.

Usage recommendations

For best results match the 8×8 mm notch size to the tile size and adhesive type; use larger notches for heavier or larger-format tiles and ensure the adhesive open time and pot life suit the working conditions. Store the trowel dry to preserve the wooden handle and rinse off corrosive chemicals after use.
