Adhesive Notch Trowel - 1.5mm V Notch

This trowel is specifically designed for applying adhesives required for vinyl flooring installations, including vinyl sheets and planks.

The trowel is designed to apply adhesive beads with a 1.5mm depth and 5mm center spacing.

While it's optimized for multi-purpose and F3 adhesives for vinyl, it may be suitable for other thin-bed adhesives if the 1.5mm bead size is appropriate for the manufacturer's recommendation.

Hold the trowel at a consistent angle between 40 and 60 degrees against the subfloor while spreading the adhesive.

The trowel features a durable hard wooden handle designed for a comfortable grip during extended use.

The steel blade should be cleaned of all adhesive residue immediately after use and dried thoroughly to prevent rust. Regular drying and proper storage are key.

Yes, the notches on all four sides allow for continuous spreading of adhesive without needing to constantly reorient the trowel, increasing efficiency.

Ensure the trowel is held at the recommended 40-60 degree angle. Check for hardened adhesive residue on the notches which may require cleaning.

Clean the trowel immediately after use while the adhesive is still wet. Use a plastic scraper or damp cloth.

Use a stiff brush or a pointed tool to clear any dried adhesive from the notches. Clean thoroughly with water and dry completely.

Light rust can often be removed with a steel wool pad. Ensure the blade is thoroughly dried after cleaning and consider applying a light coat of oil for long-term storage if not in use.
