About This Product
Hollow Grout-In Tile Spacers That Stay in the Joint
BARWALT® Hollow Leave-In Tile Spacers are industry-approved spacers designed to remain between tiles during grouting. Their hollow centers allow grout to fill through the spacer so it becomes integrated into the finished joint, eliminating the need to remove spacers before grouting.
Up to 10% Compression for Tile Variations
The spacers can compress up to 10% to accommodate dimensional variations between tiles while maintaining the intended joint layout. Their flexible response is similar to a rubber spacer, providing adjustment as wall or floor tiles are positioned.
Plus and T Spacers for Radius-Corner Tile
Extra-long appendages accommodate radius-corner tile and provide additional positioning flexibility. Choose Plus (+) or T configurations in the stocked 1/8", 3/16", 1/4", and 1/2" joint sizes, with package quantities varying by size and shape.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Can BARWALT Hollow Tile Spacers be left in the grout joint?
Yes. These industry-approved leave-in tile spacers have hollow centers that fill with grout, allowing them to become integrated into the finished joint.
How do leave-in tile spacers allow earlier grouting?
Because the spacers remain in place, installers do not need to remove them before grouting. Required curing and waiting times for the tile-setting material must still be followed.
Can the spacers accommodate variations between tiles?
Yes. BARWALT Hollow Leave-In Tile Spacers can compress up to 10% to accommodate dimensional variations between tiles.
What joint sizes are available in this listing?
The supplied variants include 1/8", 3/16", 1/4", and 1/2" joint sizes. Available shapes and package quantities vary by size.
Are BARWALT Hollow Leave-In Spacers available in 1/16"?
No. BARWALT’s hollow leave-in spacer range begins at 1/8". Its 1/16" Granite Tile Spacers are a separate, non-hollow product that must be removed before grouting.
What is the difference between Plus and T tile spacers?
Plus (+) spacers are used where four tile corners meet. T spacers are used at three-way or offset intersections where a joint meets the edge of another tile.
Can these spacers be used with radius-corner tile?
Yes. They are longer than conventional spacers to accommodate radius-corner tile installations.
How many spacers are included?
Package quantities vary according to the selected joint size and spacer shape. Refer to the chosen variant for its specific quantity.
