Tri-Glide for Self-Levelling Epoxy, Urethane & Cement Screeds
R0.00 – R1,017.75Price range: R0.00 through R1,017.75
The ROX Tri-Glide is a precision stainless-steel floor application tool designed for accurately spreading self-levelling and self-smoothing flooring systems between approximately 3 mm and 10 mm thick It is suitable for self-levelling cement screeds, epoxy flooring systems and urethane screeds. The 600 mm Tri-Glide uses adjustable, replaceable gliders to help control application thickness across the floor.
For professional flooring contractors, the Tri-Glide provides controlled spreading of medium-thickness self-levelling systems before the material is de-aerated and finished with the appropriate spike roller.

A Tri-Glide is a professional flooring application tool used to spread self-levelling and self-smoothing flooring materials at a controlled thickness. The ROX® Tri-Glide is designed specifically for medium-thickness flooring systems from approximately 3 mm to 10 mm.
The tool is manufactured from heavy-duty stainless steel and uses adjustable gliders that contact the floor while the tool is pulled through the freshly mixed material. The gliders help control the working height and provide a consistent method of spreading the flooring system across the prepared surface.
The ROX® Tri-Glide is suitable for self-levelling cementitious screeds as well as epoxy and urethane screed systems.

What is a ROX® Tri-Glide used for?
The ROX® Tri-Glide is used to spread self-levelling and self-smoothing flooring systems at a controlled thickness. It is designed for medium-thickness applications of approximately 3–10 mm.
What thickness can a Tri-Glide apply?
The current ROX® Tri-Glide is positioned for self-levelling systems from approximately 3 mm to 10 mm.
Can the Tri-Glide be used for epoxy flooring?
Yes. It is designed for self-levelling epoxy systems as well as cementitious and urethane screeds.
Can it be used for urethane screeds?
Yes. The product is designed for self-levelling and self-smoothing urethane systems.
Can the Tri-Glide be used for cement screed?
Yes. It is suitable for self-levelling cement screeds and cementitious flooring systems.
What size is the ROX® Tri-Glide?
The main Tri-Glide is 600 mm wide.
What is the Tri-Glide made from?
It is manufactured from heavy-duty stainless steel.
Are the gliders replaceable?
Yes. Replacement stainless-steel gliders are available in multiple sizes.
How do you adjust the Tri-Glide?
The gliders can be unscrewed and rotated to change the working position.
What is the difference between a Tri-Glide and a gauging rake?
A gauging rake is generally used for thinner self-levelling systems, while the Tri-Glide is designed for medium-thickness systems around 3–10 mm.
What is the difference between a Tri-Glide and a Floor Spreader?
The Tri-Glide is designed for approximately 3–10 mm applications, while the ROX® Floor Spreader is intended for thicker self-levelling cement screeds.
What is the difference between a Tri-Glide and a Skeg Leveller?
Both are designed for approximately 3–10 mm systems, but the Tri-Glide uses adjustable gliders while the Skeg Leveller uses replaceable skegs.
Do I need a spike roller after using a Tri-Glide?
For many self-levelling systems, spike rolling is part of the installation process to help release trapped air. The exact procedure should follow the flooring manufacturer's instructions.
Is the Tri-Glide suitable for professional flooring contractors?
Yes. Its stainless-steel construction, 600 mm width and replaceable/adjustable glider system make it suitable for professional flooring installation.
What should I use for a self-levelling system thicker than 10 mm?
For thicker cementitious self-levelling systems, Use the ROX® Floor Spreader for approximately 10–50 mm applications.
| Tool | Typical thickness | Main purpose |
|---|---|---|
| ROX Gauging Rake | ~500 microns–4 mm | Thin self-levelling systems |
| ROX Tri-Glide | ~3–10 mm | Medium-thickness self-levelling systems |
| ROX Skeg Leveller | 3–10 mm | Medium-thickness systems with replaceable skegs |
| ROX Floor Spreader | 10–50 mm | Thicker self-levelling cement screeds |
| Spike Roller | After spreading | De-aeration and surface levelling |
