DESCRIPTION

Refina X-SKIM Notched Spatula 5½" (140mm) 

The Refina X-SKIM Notched Spatula  5½" (140 mm) is a precision stainless steel notched spatula designed for controlled spreading and combing of adhesives during flooring and finishing applications. Part of the Refina X-SKIM system, this professional tool features interchangeable notched blades that allow installers to select the correct notch profile for different adhesive types and material thicknesses. 

Manufactured from durable stainless steel with a 0.5 mm gauge blade, the X-SKIM notched spatula delivers consistent adhesive distribution across surfaces. The notched blade helps regulate adhesive coverage and create uniform ridges, ensuring proper bonding when installing flooring materials, membranes or other bonded finishes. 

This notched adhesive spatula is available in three common notch profiles – A1, A2 and B11 – allowing tradespeople to match the notch size to the adhesive specification and installation requirements. The compact  5½" (140 mm) width makes it particularly useful for detailed work, smaller areas and controlled adhesive application. 

The X-SKIM system allows notched blades to be replaced or swapped easily, enabling installers to adapt the tool quickly when changing adhesives or working on different projects. This flexibility makes the tool suitable for flooring contractors, plasterers and finishing professionals who require precise adhesive control. 

For tradespeople looking for a reliable X-SKIM notched spatula, this stainless steel adhesive spreading tool offers durability, precision and professional performance across a wide range of flooring and finishing tasks.
