RUBI Paca zębata 28 cm 8 x 8 mm with closed plastic handle (model 65967)

RUBI Paca zębata 28 cm 8 x 8 mm with closed plastic handle (model 65967) is a notched trowel designed for accurate and uniform application of adhesives, mortars and thinset layers on floors and walls. The 28 cm stainless steel blade with 8 x 8 mm square notches allows controlled distribution of medium-thickness adhesives for tile setting and renovation work. The closed plastic handle provides a secure grip and protects the user’s hand during repetitive use.

Advantages

The 8 x 8 mm notch pattern ensures consistent material transfer and reduces air pockets under tiles, supporting even bedding and adhesion. The 28 cm wide blade covers larger areas with fewer passes, improving work pace while maintaining uniform coverage. A closed plastic handle delivers ergonomic support, resists dirt accumulation and is easy to clean after use. The combination of a durable blade and practical handle offers reliable performance on both floor and wall installations.

Suitable for

• Applying adhesives and thinset for ceramic and porcelain tiles
• Medium-thickness mortar distribution on floors and walls
• Renovation and construction projects requiring even adhesive layers
• Professional tilers and advanced DIY tile installations

Key specifications

• Blade width: 28 cm
• Notch size and shape: 8 x 8 mm square notches
• Handle type: closed plastic handle for secure grip
• Intended use: application of adhesives, mortars and thinset layers on floors and walls

How to use

Prepare the substrate according to the adhesive manufacturer's instructions: clean, level and dampen if required. Scoop the adhesive onto the substrate and hold the trowel at a consistent angle to the surface (commonly 45 degrees) while spreading the material with the flat side to initially move and level the adhesive. Use the notched edge to comb the adhesive in straight strokes, maintaining the same angle to produce uniform ridges from the 8 x 8 mm notches. Place tiles into the ridged adhesive and press or beat to achieve contact and remove air pockets, then adjust as necessary before the adhesive sets. Clean the blade and handle after use to prevent material buildup.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match the 8 x 8 mm notch size to the tile size and adhesive type recommended by the adhesive manufacturer; use larger notches for thicker bedding requirements and ensure correct trowel angle and consistent pressure to maintain even adhesive coverage.
