The OX Tools Trade Wedge Shaped Tile Spacers are designed for professional tilers and serious DIY enthusiasts who need precise alignment for wall and floor tiling projects. These 6 mm spacers provide the essential support required to maintain perfect grout lines and level surfaces while tile adhesive sets, ensuring a high-quality finish. While they offer excellent durability and ease of use, users should note that as fixed-width wedges, they require careful placement to ensure consistent spacing across large-format installations.

While the plastic is durable, thin-set adhesive often bonds to the wedge, making removal and cleaning difficult. For best results, consider them a single-use item.
Yes, these are specifically designed to provide a 6mm width/height adjustment for professional tiling.
If used correctly, they should not mark tiles. However, avoid forcing them against delicate or soft stone tiles to prevent surface scratching.
No special tool is strictly required, though pliers can assist if the wedges are set tightly.
Yes, the robust plastic construction is suitable for both interior and exterior environments.
Use a pair of pliers to grip the thicker end of the wedge and pull firmly, or tap lightly with a hammer to loosen the grip.
Ensure that you are inserting the wedges to the same depth along the tile length, using a level to check alignment periodically.
To use these spacers, simply insert the wedge into the grout joint between tiles and tap gently if necessary to adjust the height. Ensure that the wedges are inserted far enough to hold the tiles, but do not force them so hard that they chip the tile edges. For removal, once the adhesive is fully cured, you can usually pull the wedges out by hand or lightly tap them with a rubber mallet in the direction of the joint. Store unused spacers in a dry environment away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the plastic over time.
