Interlocking Edging strip 50X5X2 units - 5mm Black

The 5mm Interlocking Edging Strip is the essential finishing component for any interlocking PVC floor installation. Designed to provide a safe, tapered transition from the tile surface to the subfloor, these strips eliminate trip hazards and protect the exposed edges of the tiles in high-traffic entryways and garage openings.

Sold in units of two (50cm each) to complete a full 1m linear run, these ramps feature the same heavy-duty PVC construction as our standard 5mm tiles, ensuring a seamless aesthetic and structural match.

Technical Specifications

Performance & Safety

• Trip Hazard Mitigation: The precision-tapered slope provides a gradual transition, making it safe for foot traffic, wheelchairs, and light wheeled equipment.

• Edge Protection: Reinforces the perimeter of the "loose-lay" floor, preventing the interlocking joints from lifting or becoming damaged under lateral pressure.

• Clean Aesthetic: Provides a professional, finished border for "island" installations (such as under a single workbench or treadmill) where wall-to-wall flooring isn't required.

• Durability: Resistant to oils, grease, and heavy impact, maintaining its shape and connection even in busy workshop environments.

Professional Installer’s Note

For the most secure fit, we recommend a full-surface bond of the edging strips to the subfloor using a high-tack polyurethane adhesive, especially in doorways or areas where vehicles will be crossing the threshold. If you are installing these in a corner, the strips can be "mitred" (cut at a 45-degree angle) using a heavy-duty utility knife or a fine-toothed hacksaw for a perfectly flush perimeter.
