Tuscan Seamclip Blue 150 pc Box #TSC150B For Tile 1/4'' but less than 3/8'' thick

I used these for 12" X 12" 1/4" porcelain shower wall tiles. I wish I had discovered them before when I tiled the bathroom floor. I highly recommend these clips. They are very easy to use and get rid of the challenge of setting tiles flat relative to one another. Other reviewers say that they broke a lot of the clips. I didn't have any break on me. I think one thing that helps is to use a rubber mallet to get two adjacent tiles close to level with each other before pinching the clips closed. I inserted them immediately after setting the tile. If I left the project for awhile, I would insert the clips under the last tile and then clean off any mortar where the next tile would go later. It was very satisfying to pinch the clip down, feel it "settle" and see that there was no lippage between tiles. The job goes a lot faster if you don't have to keep checking for level. You can trust the clips. I used a rubber mallet to break them off after the mortar had set and that was fast, easy and fun. I give this product two thumbs up!!!

These things are amazing! I tiled my shower with 6x18 tiles and there is no way it could have come out any better without these things! You have to watch some youtube videos to get it right, back butter your tiles and make sure your mortar isnt too thick. A little pricey but well worth the perfect results!

Expensive but worth it, I had ~ 5 out of 150 break off as I was tightening them, all in the first 2 rows, I think at first the tile was too high and the clips couldn't apply enough pressure to make up the diff, after that I made sure the tile was reasonably close to the same height as the other tiles i had no more breaking of the clips.It's a good system and quick, but if your tile is severely warped and you are laying a brick pattern (which your not supposed to do with large format tile because of tenancy for the tile to warp during the kiln process) these cant put enough pressure to flatten the warp some (the wedge systems using their tool may be able to help more, but they are also slower and require a tool to compress the clips enough but thats from what i read i haven't used them myself.I found that using these clips were very fast that it was a real pleasure. When its time to remove them they always break off very easily with nothing left to show. Also they are very thin so it doesn't add much to the tile spacing. I was using 1/8" grout lines and had no problems with these clips causing more of a gap where it was noticeable.

I'm not a professional tile setter but am an avid DIY guy that has done some tiling in the past. I bought these to help eliminate potential lippage while setting 6 X 24 inch porcelain (wood look) plank tiles. The concept is simple, but in my experience about half of these snapped off at the base in the process of squeezing the arms downward. They are designed to snap off after the thin set has had sufficient time to set up, but with me they were snapping off while setting them. I thought maybe I was squeezing them too quickly and being too rough with them, so I attempted to go slow and gentle. I still managed to snap about half of them off trying to get the arms engaged. I've used about 1/3 of the box so far. Hopefully I'll get better with more experience. It's frustrating after one snaps off because you can't just go back and insert another one without lifting up the tile you just placed. If things get better as I go along then I'll come back and revise my rating.

My floor came out perfectly. No lippage whatsoever. I’ll admit that I broke about 15 of them before I got the hang of it. Make sure that your thinset is not between the tile and the plastic. Also, make sure when you break them off to not go from the side, as it doesn’t snap off cleanly like that. Finally, make sure that your tiles are the same thickness because if they aren’t, the clip doesn’t work. ) Use tiles that aren’t the same thickness in places where it won’t show) Been recommending this marvel to my friends who are DIYers.

I made sure there wasn't any Thinset between the bottom of the tile (6X24) and the top of the clip. None broke, and they aligned the tiles perfectly...zero lippage. After the Thinset was dry the clips broke away with just a slight hit with a rubber mallet.

The spacer / clips tended to break when trying to install them. The cost is ridiculously high for something that is a one time use. The box I bought was a count of 150, I will sell you 142 at half the price. I would not categorize them as junk just because they didn’t work in my 2 applications but I would not buy them again. Yes I bought the right size.

Tuscan Seamclips are the only way to eliminate lippage on your tile installation. First time I used them and I am convinced never to do it without them again. I think you still need to level the floor first but without the clips controlling lippage with large tile is hopeless.
