Schlüter-QUADEC-FS is made of aluminium and is available in a variety of anodised surface finishing options.
Material properties and areas of application
The suitability of Schlüter-QUADEC-FS must be verified based on the anticipated chemical stresses. Aluminium is sensitive to alkaline media. Cementitious materials, in conjunction with moisture, become alkaline, which may result in corrosion depending on the concentration and length of exposure (aluminium hydroxide formation). Adhesive or grout residue must therefore be removed immediately from visible surfaces. In addition, ensure that the profile is solidly embedded in the setting material.
Schlüter-QUADEC-FS profiles have an anodised surface layer that retains a uniform appearance during normal use. The surface must be protected against abrasion.
