Bahco adhesive trowel

A Bahco adhesive trowel spreads tile adhesive, parquet glue or floor adhesive in an even layer with fixed ridges. Tilers, floor layers and parquet fitters use it to put the right amount of adhesive on the substrate, so the tile or floor bonds over its whole surface.

The main choice is the tooth shape. Square teeth leave high, full ridges and suit larger tiles and a thicker bed of adhesive. Triangular teeth give a thinner layer, suited to smaller tiles and floor coverings. Next, choose the blade width: 120, 200 or 300 mm, at a height of 130 mm. A narrow blade works accurately along edges and in corners, a wide blade covers large areas faster. Hold the trowel at the same angle throughout, so the ridges stay equally high everywhere.

If you prefer to spread the adhesive first and comb it afterwards, pair it with a Bahco adhesive spreader. Both belong to Bahco gluing and sealing tools, the tools for gluing, sealing and jointing.
