CERAMIC TILE AND METHOD OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME |
| 摘要 |
A ceramic tile includes an opening that is used to help fasten the ceramic tile to a mounting object. The opening can have a relatively small width that can obviate the need for a cap and can allow for less abrading of a polymer compound that is exposed adjacent to a major surface of the ceramic tile. In an embodiment, an insert is placed into the opening in the ceramic tile, and the ceramic tile is fastened to a wall using a welding technique. In other embodiments, different shapes of openings and fastening techniques can be used. |
