Putty Trowel Tray WMF for Spackling and Gypsum, 315 mm

The WMF Putty Trowel Tray for Spackling and Gypsum, 315 mm, is a shallow mixing tray designed to support efficient preparation and handling of joint compounds, putty and plaster for indoor finishing work. Its 315 mm working width matches standard putty knives and trowels, providing a stable surface for mixing small batches of material and easy access to the compound during application. The tray is intended for professional and DIY use where controlled mixing and quick material retrieval are important.

Advantages

The tray provides a broad, shallow mixing area that helps minimise air entrapment while blending compounds and enables even consistency across the batch. Its width accommodates most standard 315 mm trowels, reducing transfer mess and improving workflow efficiency. The tray’s form supports stable placement on work surfaces and helps prevent spills during mixing and loading. Lightweight construction allows easy repositioning and transport between tasks.

Suitable for

• Mixing joint compound, spackling paste and gypsum plaster for indoor finishing
• Small repair jobs and patching around doors, windows and skirting
• Prepping material for use with 315 mm putty knives and finishing trowels
• Professional on-site finishing and maintenance where controlled small-batch mixing is needed

Key specifications

• Working width: 315 mm, compatible with 315 mm trowels and knives
• Shallow tray profile for controlled mixing and easy access to material
• Stable base suitable for placement on flat work surfaces
• Lightweight construction for easy handling and transport
• Designed for indoor spackling, plaster and gypsum compound use

How to use

Place the tray on a flat, stable surface. Measure and pour the required amount of powder compound and add water, or dispense ready-mixed putty directly into the tray. Mix using a putty knife or taping knife until the material reaches an even, workable consistency. Load the putty or plaster onto a 315 mm trowel as needed and apply to the repair or finishing area. Clean the tray promptly after use to prevent material hardening and to maintain the tray’s working surface.

Usage recommendations

Use the WMF 315 mm tray with matching 315 mm putty knives or trowels for best ergonomics and minimal transfer waste. Rinse and remove residue immediately after each use; hardened compound can be difficult to remove and may reduce tray life. Store the tray indoors away from direct heat and prolonged UV exposure to preserve material properties.
