They compartmentalize the surface into individual zones and incorporate a flexible central section to allow movement. These profiles can also be embedded in saw cuts or inserted into widened joints during renovations. Any remaining gap between the tile and the profile must be completely filled with grout or epoxy. The rigid PVC side walls protect the edges of adjacent tiles from mechanical stresses, but their limits should be considered for very heavy mechanical loads.\n\nThe Schluter‑DILEX‑MP model adapts to the mortar bed thickness and the level of the covering thanks to the DILEX‑MPV extensions. Its central movement zone is made of flexible chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), overlapping the rigid recycled PVC side walls by about 1\/32\" (1 mm), providing a more refined visible surface than the DILEX‑MOP profile.\n\nMaintenance: DILEX‑MP requires no special maintenance, resists mold and fungi. A common household cleaner is sufficient for upkeep.\n\nInstallation:\n1. Choose the profile appropriate for the assembly thickness and install the necessary extensions (-MPV).\n2. Position the profile against the edge of the existing tile and fully press the side section into the mortar.\n3. Lay the tiles so that they are flush with the top of the profile, the side section must be fully embedded.\n4. Completely fill the gap between the profile and the covering with grout or mortar.\n\nNote on joint repair: carefully prepare the width and depth of the joint, insert the profile, then fill the space between the profile and the tiles with grout, epoxy or tile adhesive.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Emard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52920057299262,"sku":"MPV25","price":18.47,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0872\/1976\/5566\/files\/emard-product-hqc18r71.jpg?v=1769179284","url":"https:\/\/www.emardcp.com\/en\/products\/schluter-rallonge-de-profil-dilex-mpv-plastique-pvc-1-25-mm-x-8-2-12-mpv25","provider":"Emard Couvre-Planchers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
