Set large format tiles with a clean, even bed using this California notched trowel. Drive fast, reliable coverage on big panels and planks—the alternating notch pattern helps mortar ridges collapse for stronger contact and fewer voids. Count on the stainless steel blade to stay flat, spread smoothly, and clean up quickly at the end of the day.

Key Features

• California/alternating notches: Promote consistent mortar distribution and easier ridge collapse under large tiles.
• Stainless steel blade: Resist rust and maintain a true edge for precise, repeatable spreads.
• 11" x 4.75" size: Cover more area per pass while keeping tight control in corners and along lines.
• Straight, stable feel: Hold accurate comb lines to reduce rework and lippage risk.
• Easy cleanup: Wipe down fast so you can reset and keep production moving.

Applications

Use it to place large format porcelain and ceramic on floors or walls, in showers, kitchens, and commercial spaces. Pair with proper back-buttering and directional troweling to hit target coverage on oversized tile and panels.
