Im laying porcelain pavers. 7/8” ? How long is the threaded part of the screw?
1/2"
Looks like these can work as spacers if my grout space was 1/8, but if I wanted to do 3/16, can I still use these>
Looked into this, CAN NOT find any other widths, but if you used these in addition to reg cross style spacers you will get the spacing you want and the leveling action from these. Good luck.
My pale has a sticker saying 1 /16 ", they probably come in different spacing widths, would be silly to just make one width of them.
No, as the sizes do not match.
What's the minimum grout line width the thin side of the break-off tab allows?
1/16th "
1/16" for the bases sold at HD.com
This is for 1/8 in. to 1/2 in. tile lines.
1/16 is the smallest joint Vortex allows and the smallest joint that should ever be used.
The blue caps are reusable, but the white plastic clips are "sacrificial"...where can we purchase the white clips separately in larger quantities?
so what they're saying is each time u do a job u have to pay $55.00 to have enough spacers to do the next job? a little expensive isn't it
You can find the bases in 1/16" and 1/8" width at th most popular Tile Distributors in the US from the west coast to the east coast.
Hi AKjoe, unfortunately we do not offer the white plastic clips as singular purchases on Homedepot.com. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future. Thank you for shopping Home Depot!

In a 12" tile what square footage will a pail cover?
If you assume 2 levelers per side, with each adjacent tile using the same 2 levelers, you can assume 6 levelers per tile with less at the bottom and top rows. It makes sense if you draw a picture and do a count, with the same 2 levelers on each side leveling the tile next to it. At 120 pcs per pack, figure +20 sqft . You will pick up an extra foot or two at the bottom row and top row, since each of those tiles will require fewer levelers. Similar situation with edge tiles. For a standard install, I would figure 22 sqft and do my count from there.
