The ASI 3401-48 is a straight grab bar boasting a 1-1/4-inch diameter and a 48-inch length. It has a sleek, smooth finish that adds a touch of elegance. Crafted from 18-gauge stainless steel tubing, it features an appealing satin finish. This finish not only reduces fingerprints but also gives the grab bar an alluring shine. At each end of the bar, there's a 3-inch diameter flange made from type-304 stainless steel, securely welded to the tubing with herliarc welding. Inside each flange, there are three 7/32-inch diameter countersunk, predrilled holes. These holes are designed to fit No. 10 self-tapping screws or oval head mounting screws (not included), placed about every 120 degrees for a super-secure installation. Once installed, the mounting hardware stays fully visible. This grab bar meets or exceeds all ADA requirements for grab bars, ensuring safety and reliability.
Using the ASI 3401-48 grab bar is simple. First, choose a suitable location on the wall where you need support. Then, use the predrilled holes in the flanges to attach the grab bar with No. 10 self - tapping screws or oval head mounting screws (which you'll need to buy separately). Make sure the screws are tightened well to ensure a secure installation. When using the grab bar, hold it firmly to support your weight. Avoid using excessive force or hanging heavy objects on it as this could damage the bar or its mounting. For maintenance, simply wipe the grab bar with a soft, damp cloth regularly. This will keep the satin finish looking good and reduce fingerprints. If there are stubborn stains, you can use a mild stainless - steel cleaner. But always test it on a small, hidden area first to make sure it doesn't damage the finish.
