Thermwell H402SFS3 Satin Silver Fluted Tile Edge Strip

Product Description

The THERMWELL H402SFS3 is a satin silver fluted tile edging strip designed to create a clean, finished transition where vinyl tile meets flooring of a lower height. Measuring 0.75 inches wide by 36 inches long, this strip installs along the exposed edge of vinyl tile to protect the tile edge and provide a smooth, safe threshold between floor surfaces. The fluted profile adds structural rigidity along the strip length while contributing a classic linear aesthetic. Flooring installers and general contractors use this piece as a functional finishing component in both residential and light commercial applications.

This tile edging strip is used wherever vinyl tile terminates at a doorway, room transition, or step down to an adjacent floor surface of lesser height. It is well suited for residential renovation projects, commercial tenant improvements, and new construction finish work where a neat edge treatment is required along vinyl tile perimeters. The 36-inch length covers a standard doorway opening in a single piece, reducing the need for field cuts in typical installations.

Key Features

• Satin silver finish provides a neutral, low-profile appearance compatible with a wide range of flooring colors
• Fluted profile adds rigidity and a classic linear texture along the full 36-inch length
• Designed specifically to join vinyl tile with adjacent flooring of a lower height
• 36-inch length covers a standard doorway in a single piece
• 0.75-inch width keeps the transition zone tight and unobtrusive

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style transition strip for use with vinyl tile flooring installations where the adjacent floor surface is of a lower height, such as carpet, hardwood, or resilient flooring.

Installation Notes

Flooring installers and general contractors typically install tile edging strips during the finish phase of a flooring project, after the primary field tile has been set and adhered. Secure the strip using adhesive or mechanical fasteners appropriate to the subfloor substrate. Field-cut the strip to length using tin snips or a fine-tooth hacksaw if the opening is less than 36 inches. Ensure the subfloor surface is clean, flat, and dry before securing the transition to achieve full contact and prevent movement.
