tile spacer
Explanation:
So first of all, I know nothing about tiles. But the Sztaki szótár gives two main definitions for "léc": "slat" and "spacer". And if you google "tile spacer", you'll get over 20,000 direct hits.

agree  juvera: Az én időmben a csempeléc a keskeny díszítő csempét vagy sarokcsempét jelentette, de ez úgy látszik, kiment a divatból.

agree  Mátyás Marosy: Megkérdeztem egy burkolót, ők sem használnak olyan szót, hogy "csempeléc". Az "élvédő" hangzik logikus megoldásnak.

agree  Andras Kovacs: én is inkább a csempeélvédőre szavazok, mert eddig ezzel találkoztam, fordításaim során

disagree  Mátyás Marosy: Sorry, but "tile spacer" is exactly a "spacer". Usually a small plastic cross, edged between the tiles to keep even spacing and right angles.
