Construction Patch Trapeze SOLA 250 cm — leveling accessory for plaster and concrete works

Construction Patch Trapeze SOLA 250 cm is a 250 cm leveling accessory made by SOLA for plaster, screed and concrete surface work. Used as a straightedge and guiding profile, this trapeze helps to smooth and align material across wide spans, supporting consistent thickness and improved flatness. The tool is suitable for both professional construction crews and DIY users who require reliable straightness and edge control when working on walls, floors and ceilings.

Advantages

The SOLA 250 cm trapeze provides a long, rigid reference edge that simplifies the process of levelling plaster and concrete over large areas. Its length reduces the number of joins and rechecks required during smoothing operations, enabling faster, more consistent results. The accessory is designed for repeated use on site and for compatibility with common plastering and screeding techniques, offering stable guidance when striking off material.

Suitable for

• Levelling plaster on walls and ceilings
• Striking off screed and concrete on floors
• Creating straight reference edges during surface preparation
• Use in renovation, new builds and repair works

Key specifications

• Working length: 250 cm
• Primary function: straightedge and levelling guide for plaster, screed and concrete
• Intended use: manual levelling and striking off over large spans
• Suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor surface work

How to use

Place the SOLA trapeze on the surface to be levelled so that it bridges the high points and provides a continuous guide for the strike-off operation. Rest the edge on the previously set reference points or supports, then pull or push the trapeze across the wet material to remove excess and achieve the desired thickness. For long runs, position the trapeze consecutively along the work area, check alignment visually or with a spirit level, and maintain steady, even pressure during each pass to preserve straightness.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the trapeze before use to ensure the edge is not damaged and that mounting surfaces are clean. Use appropriate supports or battens for elevated spans, and avoid excessive force that could bend the profile. After use, clean off residual material and store the tool flat or hung to prevent warping.
