Tile Leveling Bracket

What is a Tile Leveling Bracket?

A tile leveling bracket enhances the aesthetics of tiling in both interior and exterior corners, ensuring a precise 90-degree angle. One of the main advantages of using a tile leveling bracket is that when mitering tiles, no visible gap will be left. This product is known by various names, including corner bracket, tile bracket, stone bracket, angle bracket, and ceramic bracket. The corner bracket is compatible with both flat and screw-type tile leveling systems.

Today, innovative tools and techniques for tile installation have been developed and are increasingly replacing traditional methods. One of the most widely used tools for tile and ceramic installation is the tile leveling system, which continues to evolve. During tile installation using a tile leveling system, internal and external corners are commonly formed at walls, columns, wall-to-floor junctions, and staircases. In traditional methods, instant adhesive (1-2-3 glue) is often used to secure tile edges together. However, the tile leveling bracket is a new and efficient component designed specifically for placement in internal and external corners during tiling. Using a tile leveling bracket along with a tile leveling system eliminates the need for instant adhesives to stabilize tiles.

In general, these brackets are hardware components used to reinforce the corners of various structures. They provide additional support and stability to joints, particularly at 90-degree angles, preventing structural movement or collapse. In construction, corner brackets are commonly used in carpentry, metalworking, and building projects. This product helps secure beams, shelves, frames, and other structural elements.

Applications of Tile Leveling Bracket (Corner Bracket)

• Aligning tiles uniformly along the edges of columns and walls
• Compatible with tile and ceramic installation using clips and wedges
• Ensuring tile stability and maintaining grout lines
• Preventing tile displacement and movement
• Eliminating uneven tile surfaces and preventing lippage between tiles

How to Use a Tile Leveling Bracket (Corner Bracket)

What is the correct method for using a corner bracket?

After placing the tiles in internal or external corners—where a screw-type or flat tile leveling clip is positioned between them—insert the tile leveling bracket before securing the tiles. Place the wedge into the joint between the two tiles, ensuring the leveling clip protrudes through the slot in the bracket. Then, insert the wedge and lock it using either a leveling plier or by hand to secure it firmly in place.

Usage Guidelines for Tile Leveling Bracket (Corner Bracket)

How many corner brackets should be used?

The number of tile leveling brackets required depends on the tile dimensions, the number of internal and external corners, and the number of grout lines in the installation.

Important Notes for Tile Leveling Bracket (Corner Bracket)

Key considerations when using a corner bracket:

• For external corners, the corner bracket should be placed externally.
• For internal corners, the corner bracket should be placed internally.
• If the tile size is smaller than 40 cm, one bracket can be used for every two tile joints.
• The corner bracket is compatible with both screw-type and flat tile leveling systems, accommodating clips from both models.
• If a flat or screw-type tile leveling system is not used, the corner bracket cannot be utilized.
