42 - inch Grab Bar

ASI grab bars are crafted to not only meet but surpass the ADAAG standards outlined in ICC/ANSI A117.1 - 2003 and CFR 28 Part 36, Federal Register Vol. 56 No 144, July 26, 1991. This means the bar is strong enough to support a hefty 250 - pound (113.4 kg) load. Proper wall mounting is key to achieving this high - strength performance. To handle the shear, tension, pull - out, and torsion forces from the maximum load, the fastener system is carefully sized. When installed correctly, this grab bar can hold over 1350 lbs (612.4 kg).

The tubing is made of 18 - gauge stainless steel type 304, and the flanges are 1/8 - inch (3 mm) thick with a sleek satin finish. The closure plate is also 1/8 - inch (3 mm) thick. It features an all - welded construction, and there are three holes in each flange for rear mounting, making it easy to install in your bathroom or other areas where support is needed.

Using this grab bar is simple. Just install it securely on the wall using the provided holes in the flanges. It's great for bathrooms, showers, or any place where you need extra support to prevent slips and falls. When installing, make sure to follow the instructions carefully to ensure it can hold the maximum weight. As for maintenance, you can clean it with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the satin finish. If you notice any signs of damage or loosening, check the fasteners and tighten them if necessary. With proper use and care, this grab bar will serve you well for a long time.
