Tile Levelling Systems in Bulk - Cheap Tile Levelling Systems

[Dan]

Everybody seems to be selling tile levelling systems these days. So I thought I'd have a quick look on one of the websites I use to by tat from. They do actually do some good stuff amongst the crap. It's worth digging through. You can often get samples sent over FOC if you have an account that you have used before a few times, so they know you're actually a buyer. They want to sell their stuff, including their cheap tile levelling systems.

You can usually just buy the clips from there in bulk and then use your existing tools to fit them etc.

Anybody already doing this?

Christ there pricey

 

[Dan]

Does the bulk still work out pricey?

 

[J Sid]

you need to be looking at about 3 pence or less per clip delivered for cheap ones imho for rls type clips

 

[Dan]

How much are they usually locally?

 

[J Sid]

6p a clip for rls locally and 4p a clip for block from Italy all delivered and including tax

I got a load from china and worked out about 3p a clip. It was not worth the hassle though!

Just be careful not to waste ages of your precious time trying to save a few quid which could easily be stuck on an invoice or two...!

I moved onto PLM as they are the best I have used & I use a lot.
I've used thousands of the Ferramentaweb ones but the PLM is a better system.
Slimmer base & can get torqued up tighter.

got to hold my hands up here........ive tried to get my regular fixers to look at levelling systems, but they just dont want to use them/think they are a pain in the a*se/think they will be too time consuming/think they wont get 100% coverage.

 

[Flintstone]

They are some of the above, a bit of a pain over using just spacers, more time consuming. Ideal on large formats imo, 60x60 and above. I see some people using them on all sorts of tiles, more clips than bloody tile

Could you rig up some Delta boards and do a demo or get them to try them out? If you could get hold of a few bags of non-setting training adhesive and some bowed tiles, even better

Lee, 99 % of the tilers I come across in tile shops don't have much of a clue about owt!
