In the Karl Dahm range, you'll find a variety of accessories designed to support your installation work:

  • Transparent pull caps (e.g. Item No. 12806, 12542) protect delicate surfaces and provide maximum visibility control.
  • Washers (e.g. Item No. 12489) distribute pressure evenly and prevent marks on sensitive tiles.
  • Protective plates (e.g. Item No. 12536, 12591) prevent abrasion and adhesive residue buildup.
  • Assembly aid & screw adapter (Item No. 12519) allow for the removal of the pull caps while standing with a cordless screwdriver – ergonomic and time-saving.
  • Rescue Lift Set (Item No. 16116) consists of special pull caps and a helper clamp for precise adjustment of individual tiles.
  • Levelling angle (Item No. 11963) makes accurate installations in 90° corners and wall transitions easier.

Application: How to Use the Accessories Optimally

  1. Surface preparation:
    The substrate must be clean, stable, and level. Small unevenness is corrected with filler.
  2. Inserting the threaded tabs and pull caps:
    Tabs are inserted into the adhesive bed under the tiles. The pull cap is twisted on. For sensitive surfaces, additional protective plates or washers are recommended.
  3. Using the angle and assembly aid:
    The levelling angle ensures clean 90° installations. The assembly aid with screwdriver adapter allows comfortable standing work – ideal for large areas.
  4. Adjusting and removing:
    After the adhesive has cured, the caps are unscrewed and the tabs are pressed along the joint. If necessary, the Rescue Lift can be used for precise correction.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions About the Levelmac Tile Leveling System & Accessories

Do I need the complete set of accessories for every installation?

Not necessarily for every project, but especially with large format tiles, delicate surfaces, or complex layouts, using the full Levelmac accessory set will make installation easier, more precise, and faster.

The complete Levelmac accessory set is not required for all tile installations. However, when working with sensitive materials, oversized tiles, uneven substrates, or tight corners, the full system provides a clear advantage. It ensures even pressure distribution, precise leveling, uniform grout joints, and reduces installation time. If high-quality and professional results are your goal, the full system is highly recommended.

Can I reuse the accessories?

Yes, many components like protection plates, shims, and installation tools are designed for repeated, long-term use.

A key advantage of the Levelmac System is the durability and reusability of its components. Items such as protective plates, leveling shims, and mounting tools are made from long-lasting materials, allowing them to maintain their shape and stability even after multiple uses. With proper cleaning and dry storage, these parts remain economical and sustainable for long-term use. Only the tension clips are single-use elements.

When should I use the Rescue Lift?

Use it whenever a tile needs to be adjusted or lifted after placement, without removing the clip or damaging the leveling system.

The Levelmac Rescue Lift is the ideal tool for correcting tiles while the adhesive is still fresh. It allows you to lift and precisely reposition the tile without damaging the tension clip or compromising the leveling setup. This prevents installation errors, saves time, and ensures a perfectly level surface, especially with large format tiles.

What exactly does the installation aid do for me?

It allows you to work standing up, protects your back and knees, and significantly speeds up the installation process.

The Levelmac installation aid was designed to make tile installation more ergonomic and efficient. By allowing the installer to tighten the caps while standing, it reduces strain on the back and knees. This is especially beneficial on large floor surfaces, where repetitive kneeling can be exhausting. The result is improved comfort, faster installations, and consistent, professional results.

Are all parts 100% compatible with the Levelmac System?

Yes, every accessory is precision-engineered to work seamlessly with the Levelmac System.

All Levelmac accessories are developed and tested specifically for use with the Levelmac tile leveling system. This ensures perfect fit, reliable pressure distribution, and secure stability during installation. Unlike mixed systems, there are no tolerances or fitting issues, ensuring consistent installation quality.

Are there special tips for working with delicate materials?

Yes—always combine transparent tension caps with protection plates or shims to avoid scratches and pressure marks.

When working with sensitive tile surfaces such as polished porcelain, natural stone, marble, or high-gloss finishes, surface protection is essential. Using transparent caps with protection plates or shims ensures that pressure is evenly distributed and prevents scratches, indentations, or abrasion. This keeps the tile finish clean and flawless.

How many shims should I plan per square meter?

Typically 10–15 shims per m², depending on tile size and layout.

The number of shims required depends on tile dimensions, joint spacing, and installation pattern. As a general guideline, 10–15 shims per square meter is sufficient for most standard tile formats. For large format or elongated tiles, the quantity may increase slightly to ensure even leveling and tension distribution.

Does the Rescue Lift also work with wall tiles?

Yes, as long as the tile adhesive has not fully set.

The Rescue Lift is suitable for both floor and wall installations. As long as the adhesive is still workable, the Rescue Lift can correct height, alignment, or edge positioning on vertical surfaces without damaging the leveling components.

How should I store the accessory parts properly?

Store them clean, dry, and protected from UV light.

For long-lasting performance, Levelmac accessories should be stored in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight or UV exposure. Light cleaning after each use helps prevent wear and ensures that the leveling system remains fully functional and precise over time.
