The Schwan trowel with wooden handle is designed especially for tiling and masonry work where you need precise and even mortar spreading. This trowel is perfect for applying mortar before installing tiles, and it gives you a good bonding surface for the tile. Trowels come in various sizes and notch options, like 3 x 3 mm, 6 x 6 mm, 9 x 6 x 6 mm, 10 x 4 mm, semi-circular, and other popular profiles. Pick the notch size based on the tile size and mortar type. Longer versions (like 40–60 cm) make it quicker to work on bigger surfaces. The blade is made from durable steel and attached to a quality, ergonomic wooden handle. The wood handle gives a comfy and secure grip even during long jobs. The sturdy build and good balance make this tool ideal for pros like tilers and builders. Uses: Tiling: The trowel is a must-have for installing wall and floor tiles. The notched blade ensures an even mortar layer and solid bond for the tile, preventing voids and improving adhesion. Waterproofing system installation: In some cases, it's used to spread waterproofing compounds evenly, making sure the membrane has the right thickness. Floor leveling: It works for controlled spreading of leveling compounds or adhesives before laying floor materials, like under vinyl or parquet. Features: Multiple size and notch options: Available in things like 3x3 mm, 6x6 mm, 9x6x6 mm, semi-circular, and special profiles – fits different tile types. Quality steel: Made from galvanized steel – holds up to use and moisture. Ergonomic wooden handle: Gives a good grip and comfy feel while working. Available in different lengths: 28 cm, 40 cm, 50 cm, 60 cm – pick based on the job size. Precise finish: Ensures even mortar spread and optimal adhesion. Schwan Trowel instructions: Choose the right notch size for your tile and mortar. Spread mortar on the base with the smooth edge, then comb it with the notched side. Work in small sections so the mortar doesn't dry before you lay the tile. Clean the trowel thoroughly after use – dried mortar messes with precision. Store it dry and protected from impacts. How to pick the right trowel: Tile size: Small tiles = small notch (like 3x3 mm), big tiles = bigger notch (like 9x6x6 mm). Mortar type: Thicker mortars need a larger notch. Installation surface: Floors and walls might need different sizes – choose accordingly. Work area: Longer trowel is great for large surfaces and speeds things up. Notch size selection by tile type Picking the right notch size for your trowel is key to successful tiling. The right notch ensures enough mortar and good adhesion under the tile, avoiding voids and making the job last longer. This guide helps you choose the best notch for your tile size: Small mosaic and wall tiles (under 100 x 100 mm):?? Recommended notch: 3 x 3 mm or 4 x 4 mm?? Uses: Small wall tiles, kitchen backsplashes, mosaics?? Benefit: Gives a thin but even mortar layer without overfilling. Medium tiles (100 x 100 mm – 300 x 300 mm):?? Recommended notch: 6 x 6 mm or 8 x 8 mm?? Uses: Bathroom walls and floors?? Benefit: Provides enough mortar while keeping the work light and precise. Large tiles and floor tiles (over 300 x 300 mm):?? Recommended notch: 9 x 6 x 6 mm, 10 x 4 mm or larger?? Uses: Floors, large wall tiles, stone and porcelain tiles?? Benefit: Delivers more mortar to fill tile underside unevenness and boost adhesion. Special tiles and uneven surfaces:?? Recommended notch: Semi-circular or trapezoid notch (like 10 mm rounded)?? Uses: Natural stone tiles, jobs needing lots of mortar?? Benefit: Great for thick, irregular tiles and uneven bases. ?? Tip: For super large tiles (like over 600 x 600 mm), also try the "buttering & floating" technique – spreading mortar on both the base and the tile back. Why choose the Schwan Trowel with wooden handle: The Schwan trowel gives you a pro-level tool combining tough steel, precise notching, and an ergonomic handle. The wide size range means you've got the right one for every job, and the quality finish makes it reliable for repeated use. The wooden handle adds comfort, especially on long tiling projects. Warnings: Keep out of reach of children. Don't use if rusted or bent – it affects even mortar spreading. Clean thoroughly after each use.
