This Genesis internal and external corner piece fits the corresponding square tile profile and finishes the corner without miter cuts. This version is intended for a tile thickness of 12 mm. The finish is black.
Product & function
Miter cutting a corner takes time and results in a sharp joint. This corner piece does that work for you: it fits the profile and creates a rounded, safe corner. The profile is extruded from AA 6063 T6 aluminium and anodized according to DIN 17611.
Application & compatibility
This corner piece belongs to the square aluminium tile profiles in the TDP series. Choose the corner piece in the same thickness and finish as the profile. Therefore, choose the profile first and then the corresponding corner piece.
Use & points of attention
- First place the profile and leave the corner free.
- Set the corner piece in the tile adhesive, flush with the profile ends.
- Check that the corner piece is flush with the profile before the adhesive sets.
Aluminium is sensitive to alkali. Cement-based materials become alkaline in combination with moisture, so remove adhesive and grout residues from visible surfaces and ensure that the profile is fully embedded. In the case of chemical or mechanical stress, first check whether aluminium is suitable for the situation. Special maintenance is not required. An oxide film can be removed with a common polishing agent, but it will return. Damaged anodizing can only be repaired by recoating.

Frequently asked questions
What size corner piece do I need? The same thickness as the profile you are fitting it to. A 10 mm corner piece belongs with a 10 mm profile.
How many corner pieces do I need? One per corner. Count the internal and external corners of your tiled surface and keep a spare on hand.
Must the finish match exactly? Yes. Choose the corner piece and profile in the same finish, otherwise the colour difference at the corner will be visible.
Can this profile withstand moisture? Aluminium is resistant to normal moisture exposure in bathrooms and kitchens. However, pay attention to fresh cement and grout residues: they become alkaline with moisture and can damage the surface. Wipe them away while they are still wet.
