Material properties and areas of application
In special cases, the suitability of a proposed type of profile must be verified, based on anticipated chemical, mechanical, and/or other stresses.
Schlüter-RENO-RAMP-K profiles made of anodised aluminium have an anodised finish that retains a uniform appearance during normal use. Minor manufacturing flaws are unavoidable on their untreated surfaces. Aluminium is sensitive to alkaline. Cementitious materials, in conjunction with moisture, become alkaline, which may result in corrosion depending on the concentration and length of exposure (aluminium hydroxide formation). Any adhesive, mortar or grout must therefore be removed from visual areas immediately. They are also abrasive which can damage the finish. The profile must be solidly embedded in the setting material to prevent alkaline water from accumulating in small cavities.
