Schluter RENO-VT Support Profile - 8 ft. 2-1/2 in.

Schluter RENO-VT Support Profile

RENO-VT is the support profile of the Schluter RENO-V sloped transition system: the satin anodized aluminum part that is set in the mortar under the tile edge. The RENO-VB Variable Transition Arm (sold separately) clips into its ball-and-socket joint and slopes down to the lower floor covering. Use RENO-VT to replace or add to the support part of a RENO-V installation, or to build RENO-V from separate parts.

Key Features

• Trapezoid-perforated anchoring leg locks into the thin-set mortar under the tile
• Ball-and-socket joint takes the RENO-VB transition arm, which adjusts to the height of the adjacent floor covering
• Integrated joint spacer creates a defined joint between the tile and the profile
• Protects the tile edge from chipping
• Satin anodized aluminum (AE)

Specifications

Installation / Application Tips

• Choose the profile height to match the tile thickness. Once installed, the top of the profile should be flush with the tile surface or up to about 1/32" (1 mm) below it.
• Press the anchoring leg into thin-set mortar, trowel more mortar over the perforations, then set the tile against the joint spacer and fill the joint completely with grout.
• For heavy traffic such as garage entrances or loading docks, backfill the transition arm with mortar.
• Remove setting materials from aluminum right away.
