The HELIX caps are used together with the HELIX clips to accurately level tiles at the same height. When tightened, the HELIX caps apply even pressure to the tile, creating a perfectly flat tile surface.

The HELIX caps are an essential part of the leveling process and are used together with HELIX clips and HELIX long clips. They push the tiles to the correct height, resulting in a perfectly flat tile surface.
The caps are made from durable polystyrene, a material resistant to pressure and deformation. This ensures reliable performance even after intensive use and allows the caps to be reused multiple times without loss of quality. This makes them not only efficient but also a sustainable choice for professional tile installers.
The large pressure surface ensures even force distribution across the tile, helping to prevent damage and simplifying installation. The ergonomic cap is designed to fit comfortably in the hand, allowing fast rotation and leveling in a single movement. Thanks to its strong and durable design, it is built for long-term use. The cap applies even and controlled pressure to each tile, ensuring a perfectly flat installation.
Always apply sufficient tile adhesive and place the first tile. Check that the tile is perfectly level before continuing.
Slide the clip(s) underneath the tile and press the tile down gently. Place the next tile after positioning the clips. Make sure the tile is placed on top of the clip base. Depending on the tile size, place one or more clips along each side. Tap the tile into position.
Turn the cap onto the clip and tighten it firmly.
Tip: Do not remove the cap yet.
Leave the cap in place for less than 24 hours after tightening. Once the tile adhesive is ALMOST fully cured, the clip and cap can be easily removed using a rubber mallet or your foot.
Tip: Always break the clip and cap in the direction of the grout joint.
Remove the caps from the clips. The caps can be reused.
The number of clips and wedges required depends on various factors, such as the tile size and the total area to be tiled. Please refer to the consumption guide below.
Measure the length and width of the tile. Then, locate these dimensions in the calculation table adjacent to this section. The point where both measurements intersect indicates the number of clips required per m².
Calculate the total area of the surface to be tiled in m2. To do this, multiply the length by the width of the room.
Multiply the number of clips per m² (from Step 1) by the total area to be tiled (from Step 2). This will provide the total number of clips required for your project.
