Discover the ASI 3501-42P, a top - notch 42 - inch straight grab bar designed for commercial use. Crafted from 18 - gauge type 304 stainless steel with a sleek satin finish, this grab bar not only looks great but also resists fingerprints. The bar features a peened surface, providing a non - slip grip for enhanced safety. It has an outside diameter of 1.5 inches. At each end, there's a 3 - inch diameter exposed flange, 1/8 - inch thick, made from the same high - quality stainless steel and herliarc welded to the tubing. Inside each flange, you'll find three 7/32 - inch diameter countersunk, predrilled holes, spaced about 120 degrees apart. These holes are ready for No. 10 self - tapping screws or oval head mounting screws (not included). Once installed, the mounting hardware stays visible. This grab bar fully meets or exceeds all ADA requirements, making it a reliable choice for any commercial space.
Using this grab bar is easy. Just hold onto it firmly when you need support, like getting in or out of the bathtub or using the toilet. When it comes to installation, make sure to use the right screws (No. 10 self - tapping or oval head mounting screws) in the predrilled holes. Place the screws evenly at about 120 - degree intervals for a secure fit. Keep in mind that the mounting hardware will be exposed after installation. For maintenance, simply wipe the grab bar with a mild soap and water solution regularly. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the satin finish. Also, check the screws occasionally to ensure they're tight. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, replace the grab bar to maintain safety.
