Schlüter-DILEX-MP is a special profile made of rigid PVC and soft CPE that can be adjusted to the assembly height of the surface covering by attaching the Schlüter-DILEX-MPV extension profile.
The profile system is suitable for creating expansion joints in floor coverings made of ceramic tile, natural stone, brick or synthetic pavers over screed mortar beds. The profile separates the individual covering sections and equalises compression stresses in its centre segment of soft CPE. Expansion stresses that may occur cannot be absorbed, as the profile does not have lateral anchoring in the screed mortar bed. The lateral edges of the rigid PVC profile, which are covered by a soft CPE movement zone of approximately 1 mm at the top, protect the edges of adjoining covering materials from minor mechanical impact, e.g. in residential settings, offices or sales rooms.
DILEX-MP may also be inserted in saw cut joints or wider cut joints, e.g. in the case of renovations. The remaining joint between the tile and the profile must be filled completely with grout or epoxy.
