Application and Function
Edge-finishing Profiles
5.3 Schluter
®
-BARA-RW is a stainless
steel or color-coated aluminum, L-shaped
edging profile for balconies and terraces.
The profile provides a neat edge appearance
while concealing and protecting the
exposed edges of the setting bed against
weathering and corrosion.
Schluter
®
-BARA-RW is suitable for the
renovation of balconies and terraces
where a tile covering is to be installed onto
an existing substrate using the thin-bed
method. The profile is solidly embedded
into the thin-set mortar and integrated into
the bonded waterproof layer.
Schluter
®
-BARA-RW is available with
a special radius perforation “R” so that
the profile can be used to form curves.
Matching outside corners and connector
pieces are available.
5.15 Schluter
®
-BARA-RWL is a color-
coated aluminum, L-shaped finishing profile
for large-format pavers that are laid on loose
gravel layers or stilted assemblies above a
waterproofing layer and drainage layer.
The trapezoid-perforated anchoring leg
of Schluter
®
-BARA-RWL is placed along
the edge, on top of the waterproofing
layer, and adjusted to the proper height
and alignment. The vertical finishing leg
covers the edge of either the entire surface
assembly or just the gravel layer or stilts.
Profile heights from 9/16" to 5-29/32"
(15 to 150 mm) allow for any type of
edge formation. Drainage holes, spaced
at approximately 2-15/16" (75 mm),
are incorporated at the transition of the
