ABSTRACT:
A tile mounting system for mounting tiles of stone or other material to a supporting body in a fixed position relative to the supporting body and, at the same time, for anchoring the tiles to the supporting body. The tile mounting system includes a tile having a front face and a rear face, the rear face of the tile having at least one groove therein, at least a portion of which is undercut in cross-section; and an anchor member for both mounting and anchoring the tile to the supporting body. The anchor member includes an insert portion for being fixedly secured within the undercut portion of the at least one groove, and an attachment portion extending from the insert portion in a direction substantially perpendicular to the rear face of the tile when the insert portion is secured within the at least one groove, the attachment portion preferably being at least partially threaded for being threadedly attached to said supporting body.
