The TILING BUDDY Adjustable Plastic Pliers are the ideal choice for anyone using a tile levelling system for the first time or installing tiles occasionally. Thanks to their lightweight design and simple operation, these pliers provide a comfortable and user-friendly solution for smaller tiling projects.
The adjustable pin allows the pliers to be easily adapted to different tile thicknesses. This ensures even pressure is applied to the wedges and clips, contributing to consistent levelling, perfect tile alignment and a flat final result. The durable plastic construction makes the pliers lightweight, practical and suitable for repeated use during renovation and tiling projects.
Always ensure there is sufficient tile adhesive and place the first tile. Check that this tile is perfectly level before continuing.
Slide the clip(s) under the tile and press the tile down gently. Place the next tile after applying the clips. Make sure the tile is placed on top of the base of the clip.
Depending on the size of the tile, place one or more clips per side. Tap the tile into place.
Slide the wedge through the opening of the clip. Use leveling pliers to push the wedge through the clip with sufficient force until the tiles are perfectly flat.
Tip: Do not remove the wedge yet.
Leave the wedge in place for less than 24 hours after tightening. Once the tile adhesive is ALMOST fully cured, the clip and wedge can easily be removed with a rubber mallet or your foot.
Tip: Always break the clip and wedge in the direction of the joint.
Remove the wedges from the clips. The wedges 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.
Step 1Measure 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 to be tiled in m² by multiplying 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.
