VITREX, described as a quality brand of QEP, is reportedly known for its ‘clever solutions to giving a professional edge to tiling installations’.
With the patented LASH wedges, Vitrex says it made it easier for DIY enthusiasts to achieve a lippage-free surface. Now, with the introduction of the ‘innovative Xtreme LASH SPIN levelling system, it has made another leap forward for trade professionals’.
Says the company: ‘Developed to respond to the growing demand for a system that gives a perfectly level surface for large-format floor and wall tiles, Xtreme LASH SPIN is an enhanced, spin-style version of Vitrex LASH (Level, Align, Space & Hold) systems. Combining speed, simplicity and accuracy in a reusable, two-part system; LASH SPIN offers a popular levelling alternative to wedge systems.
‘The Xtreme LASH SPIN system aligns tiles and holds them in position while the adhesive cures. Its flat Base provides consistent spacing with the spinnable Screw Cap allowing for quick tool-free tightening and perfect levelling every time.
‘Once the adhesive has set, the base is removed with a quick strike from a rubber mallet, leaving a flawless, lippage-free surface ready for grouting. What’s more, the reusable Spin Caps make LASH SPIN cost-effective, as they can be used in future installations.’
Vitrex category manager Tom Connelly says: ‘Xtreme LASH SPIN is about making a professional finish on large format tiles much easier to achieve. Faster, cleaner and more consistent, it’s a revelation for anyone working with today’s oversize tiles, eliminating tile lippage.’
Designed for tiles up to 15mm thick, the system is suitable for walls and floors and can be used with porcelain, marble and natural stone. Vitrex offers a range of products in the Xtreme LASH SPIN line-up:
- LASH SPIN Starter Kits: 150 Bases in 2mm or 3mm grout lines and 50 reusable Spin Caps
- LASH SPIN Base Pack: 250 Bases in 2mm or 3mm grout lines
- LASH SPIN Cap Pack: 100 reusable Spin Caps
- LASH SPIN Protective Plates: optional accessories that prevent tile and cap damage during installation
‘With the Vitrex Xtreme LASH SPIN Levelling System, professional tile installers can achieve a consistently level, professional quality tile installation in a faster time than ever. In bathrooms, kitchens or feature walls, LASH SPIN is the fast, precise and reusable levelling solution that’s ready straight out of the box.’
