Stainless Steel Notched Trowel MODECO MN-73-276 280×130×6 mm, Plastic Handle

Stainless Steel Notched Trowel MODECO MN-73-276 with a plastic handle is a hand tool designed for spreading and serrating adhesives, mortars and tile adhesives. The working blade measures 280×130×6 mm and features a notched edge that produces consistent ridges for improved adhesive coverage and uniform tile bedding. The stainless steel blade provides resistance to corrosion and wear typical in construction and tiling environments, while the plastic handle ensures a secure grip during prolonged use.

Advantages

The stainless steel construction resists rust and maintains blade flatness, ensuring even adhesive application over time. The notched edge creates uniform adhesive ridges, reducing waste and improving adhesion of tiles or flooring materials. The plastic handle offers ergonomic handling and easier cleaning compared with wooden handles. The blade dimensions (280×130×6 mm) give a balance between coverage area and control for both larger and more detailed tasks.

Suitable for

• Applying tile adhesives and thinset mortar
• Spreading epoxy or cement-based adhesives
• Floor and wall tiling jobs in interior and exterior settings
• DIY renovation and professional tiling and flooring work

Key specifications

• Blade material: stainless steel
• Handle material: plastic
• Working blade dimensions: 280 × 130 × 6 mm
• Edge type: notched for creating adhesive ridges
• Typical use: adhesive and mortar spreading, serrating

How to use

Prepare the substrate according to the adhesive manufacturer's instructions, ensuring it is clean and free of dust or loose particles. Scoop or pour the adhesive onto the surface and use the flat face of the trowel to distribute material broadly, then use the notched edge held at the recommended angle to create uniform ridges. Maintain a consistent angle and pressure to achieve even adhesive thickness. Clean the blade and handle after use to prevent hardened residue; stainless steel allows for easier removal of adhesive compared with non-stainless blades.

Usage recommendations

Choose the notched edge size and trowel angle that match the tile size and adhesive type for optimal bond. Store the trowel dry to preserve the plastic handle and prevent long-term deposits on the blade. For best results, follow adhesive manufacturer guidance on notch pattern and coverage rates.
