Description
SGS Professional Ceramic & Granite Tile Leveling Pliers (Model SGS6177)
Completely eliminate frustrating “lippage” and ensure perfectly flat, mirror-smooth floors with the SGS Professional Tile Leveling Pliers. A modern necessity in the Afrogulf tiling catalog, these specialized pliers are designed to work seamlessly with standard wedge-and-clip tile leveling systems. When laying large-format ceramic, thick porcelain, or heavy natural granite, even a millimeter of height difference between tiles (lippage) can ruin the aesthetic and create a tripping hazard. These pliers provide the mechanical leverage required to easily force the leveling wedge through the clip, pulling adjacent tiles into absolute flush alignment while the thinset mortar cures.
The core advantage of the SGS6177 is its high-leverage metal construction and adjustable precision. Pushing leveling wedges by hand is exhausting, causes severe thumb fatigue, and often results in uneven pressure that fails to fully level heavy stone slabs. These pliers feature an adjustable tension screw and depth stop, allowing the user to set the exact amount of pressure required for their specific tile thickness. This ensures maximum leveling force is applied evenly without accidentally snapping the plastic clips prematurely. Equipped with ergonomic, non-slip handles, this tool allows professionals to lay massive square footage faster, easier, and with flawless results.
