This swing-up grab bar is crafted from 304 stainless steel alloy (18-8) with a satin finish. It features a 1-1/2” diameter (Ø38) tubing hinge and has three preset detent stop positions - fully up, 45 degrees raised, and fully down. There's a polymer bumper at the bottom end of the bar to prevent banging when it's lowered into the using position. The bar movement tension is achieved through an internal detent stop pawl, and it can be easily operated with one hand. The bar mounting plate comes with a solid stop bumper to avoid the raised arm hitting the wall. It has an exposed flange (1-1/2″ O.D) and a smooth surface, offering a reliable and user - friendly grab bar solution.
Using this swing - up grab bar is a breeze. Just use one hand to move it to your desired position - fully up when not in use, 45 degrees raised for partial support, or fully down for full support. When lowering it, the polymer bumper at the bottom end will stop it from making a loud noise. Remember, don't apply excessive force when operating the bar as it might damage the internal detent stop pawl. For maintenance, wipe the bar regularly with a soft cloth to keep the satin finish looking good. If there's any dirt or grime, use a mild soap and water solution, then dry it thoroughly to prevent rusting. Also, check the mounting plate and the solid stop bumper periodically to make sure they're in good condition and securely attached.
