Installation Overview
Installing this 120-inch backsplash requires careful surface preparation and precise alignment techniques. Begin by verifying electrical box locations to ensure proper cutout alignment with existing infrastructure. The 8-inch height extends from countertop surface to typical wall cabinet mounting height. Apply construction adhesive in a serpentine pattern across the back surface, avoiding areas behind outlet cutouts to prevent squeeze-out into electrical boxes. Use temporary bracing to maintain vertical alignment during adhesive cure. Install mechanical fasteners through the backsplash into wall studs at regular intervals for permanent support. Seal the bottom edge where stone meets countertop with color-matched silicone caulk, and apply clear silicone around outlet perimeters to create moisture barriers. Proper installation ensures long-lasting performance and aesthetic appeal.
CNC Cutting Notes
Program your CNC router with feed rates appropriate for your specific stone material—typically 80-120 inches per minute for granite and 60-100 IPM for quartz. The two outlets at ends cutout requires precision plunge-cutting techniques, starting from center points and working outward to prevent chipping. Use quality diamond-coated router bits with adequate diameter for your application, generally 1/4-inch to 3/8-inch for most work. Employ climb-cutting direction on visible faces to minimize edge chipping around cutouts. Ensure continuous cooling water flow during all operations to control dust, prevent heat damage, and extend tool life. The 120-inch length requires adequate material support during cutting to prevent vibration and ensure dimensional accuracy.
Material Compatibility
This template delivers excellent results across natural and engineered stone materials including granite, quartz, marble, quartzite, and ultra-compact porcelain surfaces. Compatible with standard 2cm and 3cm thickness slabs, the design accommodates all major stone types from soft materials like soapstone and limestone to extremely hard quartzite and exotic granites. The cutout geometry distributes stress appropriately, reducing crack risk even in brittle materials. Engineered quartz brands including Caesarstone, Silestone, Cambria, and others machine cleanly with this template. Adjust feed rates and tooling based on specific material hardness, reducing speeds for harder stones and increasing for softer materials. The template works equally well with newer ultra-compact surfaces like Dekton, Neolith, and Lapitec, though these materials demand sharp diamond tooling and patient cutting speeds.
