Self-adhesive Spacer DS-4.8/3.2, No name — model DS-4.8/3.2

Self-adhesive Spacer DS-4.8/3.2 is a compact fixing element designed to create and maintain a precise 3.2 mm gap between adjacent surfaces. Supplied with a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing, the spacer can be positioned quickly and remains in place during installation. It is suitable for applications where a defined separation is needed and where a 4.8 mm mounting or through dimension is available for alignment or passage.

Advantages

The self-adhesive backing enables fast temporary placement without additional tools or clamps, reducing handling time during assembly and installation. Its consistent 3.2 mm thickness provides repeatable spacing for tiles, glazing, panels or other joined materials, improving alignment and visual uniformity. The compact design minimizes visual intrusion while offering reliable separation and can be used in both horizontal and vertical orientations.

Suitable for

• Tiling installations where uniform grout joints are required
• Glass and glazing spacing to maintain consistent gaps
• Panel mounting and cladding where a fixed gap improves ventilation or alignment
• Assembly tasks requiring a 3.2 mm separation with compatibility for a 4.8 mm mounting dimension

Key specifications

• Gap thickness: 3.2 mm
• Compatible mounting/through dimension: 4.8 mm
• Fixing: pressure-sensitive self-adhesive backing for quick placement
• Form factor: compact spacer for minimal visual impact
• Orientation: suitable for horizontal and vertical application

How to use

Ensure both surfaces are clean, dry and free of dust, oils or loose particles before application. Peel off the protective liner from the adhesive backing, position the spacer at the required location to establish a 3.2 mm gap and press firmly to secure. If using in conjunction with a 4.8 mm mounting or through-hole, align the spacer so the component or fastener passes through the compatible opening. Remove or leave spacers in place according to the needs of the installation and the materials involved.

Usage recommendations

For best adhesion, apply at room temperature and avoid immediate exposure to moisture or heavy loads until the adhesive has set. Test adhesion on a small area when using on painted or delicate surfaces. Use additional mechanical fixing where long-term structural support is required or where adhesive alone may not be sufficient.
