The Tile Rite Big Spin Hurricane Level Caps are an essential component for professional tilers and serious DIY enthusiasts working with large format tiles. These caps allow for precise alignment during installation to eliminate lippage, resulting in perfectly flat surfaces on both walls and floors; however, they require the specific Big Spin Hurricane bases to function as intended.

No, these are specifically designed for tiles between 15-25mm thick and are not optimized for thin-set or standard 8-10mm tiles.
No, the Big Spin Hurricane caps are designed to be tightened by hand, which helps prevent over-tightening and tile damage.
Yes, they are fully compatible with the original Tile Rite Big Spin leveling system bases.
Wash them in water immediately after removing them from the wall or floor to prevent adhesive from hardening in the threads.
The pack includes 100 individual reusable caps.
Yes, they are suitable for both wall and floor applications as long as the tile thickness meets the 15-25mm specification.
Check the thread for dried adhesive or grout buildup and clean with a wire brush if necessary.
Ensure the base is properly centered beneath the tile edge and verify that no debris is trapped between the tile and the base.
Verify that your tiles fall within the 15-25mm thickness range; if the tiles are too thin, the cap may bottom out before applying pressure.
To begin, ensure you have the correct Big Spin Hurricane bases compatible with your tile thickness. Place the base beneath your first tile, then place the adjacent tile. Screw the Hurricane Cap onto the exposed thread of the base until the tiles are flush and secure.
After the mortar or adhesive has fully cured, simply unscrew the cap by hand. Remove any residual thin-set or grout from the cap threads immediately after removal to ensure they remain easy to screw on for the next job. Store in a clean, dry container to prevent debris from clogging the internal threading.
