This RHINOBUILD Tingle Plate is designed for bricklayers and construction professionals to prevent string lines from sagging in the middle of long runs. Its key benefit is providing a stable, fixed point for your string line, ensuring accurate brick courses. A potential caveat is its specific use case, making it less relevant for projects without long, straight string lines.

A tingle plate is used in bricklaying to support a string line and prevent it from sagging in the middle of a long run, ensuring consistent brick courses.
It is made from zinc-plated steel for superior corrosion resistance.
The dimensions are 115 x 50mm with a thickness of 1.5mm.
It is designed for standard bricklaying string lines. The notches allow the string to pass under and over, offering some flexibility for different string thicknesses.
It is designed and manufactured in Britain.
Wipe away any excess mortar or debris with a damp cloth after use and store in a dry environment.
No, the silver color is purely aesthetic and does not impact the functional performance of the tingle plate.
Ensure the tingle plate is securely positioned and that the string line is adequately tensioned. Check that the string is correctly threaded through the notches as intended.
While zinc-plated steel offers good corrosion resistance, prolonged exposure to moisture can lead to rust. Clean the plate thoroughly and ensure it is stored in a dry place. Minor surface rust can often be removed with a stiff brush.
Verify that the string line diameter is suitable for the tingle plate's notches. If the string is too thin, consider using a slightly thicker line or a different securing method for that specific point.
Setup: The RHINOBUILD Tingle Plate is designed for straightforward integration into your bricklaying setup. Position the plate at the desired point along your string line. The notched design allows you to easily thread your string line either underneath or over the plate, securing it in place. For best results, ensure the string line is tensioned correctly before fixing the tingle plate. The plate itself may need to be temporarily fixed to a support or held in place depending on the stage of construction.
Compatibility: This tingle plate is compatible with standard bricklaying string lines. The notched design accommodates typical string diameters, allowing it to pass under and over. It is best suited for applications where a straight, tensioned line is required.
Care: To ensure longevity and maintain its corrosion resistance, clean the tingle plate after use. Wipe away any excess mortar or debris with a damp cloth. Store in a dry environment to prevent premature rust, although the zinc plating offers significant protection.
