Abstract

A leveling spacer for laying tiles, floor tiles and the like with the interposition of gaps having a base, a threaded stem, a knob, and a slip preventing element for protecting the tiles between which the spacer is arranged. The base includes spacing protrusions in order to define the width of the gaps. The threaded stem is fixed at right angles to the base by interposition of a stem supporting portion that is connected to the base by means of at least one preweakened point. The knob is configured for gripping and removing by breaking the threaded stem, which includes a female thread portion adapted to be screwed to the threaded stem. The slip preventing element is adapted to be arranged substantially coaxially to the knob, for abutment against the knob on the side of the base.
