Uneven cleft surfaces may interfere with proper strap performance. Why Choose Tuscan Wing Straps? Wing Straps allow installers to compensate for minor differences in tile thickness while maintaining consistent alignment throughout the installation. Used together with reusable Tuscan Caps, they help create flatter finished surfaces while reducing tile movement during the curing process. They are especially valuable when working with calibrated stone or porcelain that may have slight thickness variations not suited for standard straps. Important Installation Instructions Before first use, soak the straps in room temperature or lukewarm water for approximately 2 hours, or in hot water for approximately 30 minutes. This one-time soaking process increases strap elasticity and helps achieve the proper installation tension.
