Tile adhesive, a cement-based material, is a new type of bonding material with obvious advantages and high-cost performance. At present, more and more people are beginning to accept tile adhesive for tiling. The slurry is uneven or uneven, and the slurry on the back of the tile is also prone to uneven shrinkage. In severe cases, it will lead to a gradual separation between the tile adhesive and the tile, that is, the tile gradually evolves from hollowing to falling off. The advantage of using notched trowel as follows.

1. Improve construction efficiency

In the past, when using cement to tile, it was necessary to find out the levelness and smear the cement surface very evenly. It is good for a skilled construction master. After all, the technique is skilled. It is very convenient to use a toothed scraper. Anyone can scrape if the direction is controlled, and the tile glue can be quickly pulled into stripes. It is easy to grasp the thickness and directly lay it, which greatly improves the efficiency of construction.

2. Material saving

The toothed scraper is widely used in the industry and is a very important auxiliary tool to achieve thin tile adhesive. On the premise of ensuring the paste effect, the use of a toothed scraper can well comb the tile adhesive, to effectively control the amount of tile adhesive.

3. Save space

Tile adhesive tiling can be used thinly, generally the thickness will not exceed 6mm, and compared with about 10mm of cement mortar, it saves nearly half of the thickness, which saves the decoration space, achieves the effect of thin sticking, and greatly saves materials.

4. Reduce the empty drum rate

During the stirring process, the tile adhesive will inevitably be mixed with air, and then a cavity will be formed inside the slurry. If the material is directly applied to the back of the brick, there may be a cavity, which will cause hollowing in the later stage. With the toothed scraper, in the process of carding the slurry, the air inside the tile glue slurry can be squeezed out by pressing to reduce the formation of cavities, which has a good guarantee for the full slurry rate.
