MLT Leveling System Thin Tile Base Plates

MLT Thin Tile Base Plates are designed with thin tiles less than 1/4" thick. They allow for excellent thin-set coverage on both walls and floors and can be used with any thin porcelain or ceramic tile.


Features

  • Base Plates for thin porcelain and ceramic tile
  • Ready to use, no pre-soaking required
  • Use tiles less than 1/4" thick to guarantee perfect alignment and plane during the curing of the setting material
  • Pre-assemble Thin Tile Base Plate to reusable MLT Strap (sold separately) before use
  • Counter sinkholes assist in adhesion for ceiling tile applications
  • Engineered specifically for thin tiles to ensure maximum thin-set coverage without hollow spots
  • MLT Base Plates are available in three other styles to accommodate all types of materials: Porcelain Tile Base Plates, Offset/Plank Tile Base Plates, and Stone Base Plates

MLT System Installation

  • Pre-assemble reusable connecting tab and base plate
  • Push the stainless steel portion of the re-usable connecting tab through the center opening of the selected base plate
  • Align protuberances by passing them entirely through the slotted openings of the stainless steel connecting tab
  • Pull the connecting tab until the "snap lock" engages
  • The base plate should remain affixed to the re-usable connecting tab unless separation is desired
  • Insert pre-assembled, re-usable connecting tab and base plate under the tile or stone edge, sliding the connecting tab's base plate under the tile or stone being installed, at approximately 3” from the corners (MLTSystem components may be used for the corners of offset pattern, in the “T” intersection of porcelains having a minimum thickness of 3/8”)
  • The spacing of each re-usable connecting tab should not exceed 20” to 24” apart, during installation
  • Do not place them under a four-corner junction, as lippage may result and also significantly increase the difficulty of producing a straight grout joint line
  • Once the pre-assembled, re-usable connecting tab and base plate are in place, proceed using standard installation procedures
  • Upon completing the "set" of the tile or stone, lower the tension locking cap over the re-usable connecting tab to the tile or stone surface, then slide the cap in the direction of the grout joint to engage the lock
  • Place the installation/removal tool atop the tension locking cap to engage the re-usable connecting tab and tension MLT System to create a lippage-free surface
  • If additional cleaning of the grout joint line is required after the MLT System has been tensioned, remove the cap, clean the joint line, re-engage the cap, and re-tension
  • To remove the set tension setting dial on “S” for “Snap”
  • Place the installation/removal tool atop the re-usable cap and engage the re-usable connecting tab
  • Collect and store all re-usable connecting tabs and re-usable tension locking caps for future use
  •  When using the MLT System for installations of thin tile, un-glazed, or highly polished materials, it is strongly recommended to use the fitted Rubber Pad accessory under the re-usable tension locking cap
