  • Patent number: 5073430
    Abstract: A tile edging trim strip comprises a body having an anchorage portion and an integral edge portion which projects from the anchorage portion and has an abutment part remote from the anchorage portion to abut against the edge of a tile, and a platform removably attached to the anchorage portion which projects towards the abutment part. The platform enables the trim strip to be adjusted for use with tiles of different thicknesses, and to allow for variations in section thickness of a tile. Thus, the platform may lift a thinner tile or tile edge off the anchorage portion into a position for abutting engagement of the abutment part with the tile, or the platform may be removed for a thicker tile or tile section to allow the tile to engage with the anchorage portion and still have abutting engagement with the abutment part. The platform may be formed integrally with, or be a separate element detachably connected to, the anchorage portion.
