Smoothing Blade FORTE 65 cm, 0.4 mm thickness

The FORTE smoothing blade with a 65 cm working width and 0.4 mm thickness is a long, rigid finishing tool engineered for precise leveling of large flat surfaces. Designed for use with plaster, cement-based renders, adhesives and skim coats, the blade delivers consistent pressure across its length to reduce trowel marks and surface irregularities. Its length and stiffness make it suitable for achieving even planes on walls and floors during professional plastering and tiling work.

Advantages

The 65 cm length allows covering wider areas with fewer passes, increasing efficiency when working on medium to large surfaces. The 0.4 mm thickness provides sufficient rigidity for straightening and flattening without excessive flex, helping to maintain a uniform finish. The blade’s smooth edge promotes even material distribution and reduces the need for repeated smoothing, while compatibility with common finishing techniques supports both plasterers and tilers in professional workflows.

Suitable for

• Leveling plaster on interior and exterior walls
• Smoothing cement-based renders and skim coats
• Flattening adhesive layers for tiling preparation
• Finishing large floor areas where a straight plane is required

Key specifications

• Working width: 65 cm
• Material thickness: 0.4 mm
• Long, rigid blade profile for even pressure distribution
• Suitable edge for finishing and material leveling

How to use

Attach or hold the smoothing blade so the full length contacts the surface to be worked. Apply the plaster, render, adhesive or skim coat according to the material manufacturer’s instructions, then draw the blade across the surface with steady, even pressure to level the material. For best results, use overlapping passes and maintain a consistent angle to avoid gouging. Clean the blade after each use to prevent buildup that could affect finish quality.

Usage recommendations

Use the blade on prepared substrates and follow recommended drying and curing times for applied materials. When working on very large or uneven surfaces, combine this blade with shorter finishing tools to refine edges and corners. Store the blade dry and free from corrosive exposure to maintain a straight edge and consistent performance.
