The ASI 3501-48P is a high-quality, straight grab bar. It has a 1.5-inch diameter and a length of 48 inches. The bar features a peened, non-slip gripping surface for added safety. Crafted from 18-gauge stainless steel tubing, it has an appealing satin finish that reduces fingerprints while still giving it an attractive shine. At each end of the grab bar, there's a 3-inch diameter flange made from type-304 stainless steel, securely welded to the tubing. Each flange has three 7/32-inch diameter countersunk, pre-drilled 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 secure installation. Once mounted, the hardware is fully exposed. This grab bar meets or exceeds all ADA requirements for grab bars, ensuring reliability and safety.
Using the ASI 3501-48P grab bar is easy. First, gather the necessary mounting screws (No. 10 self-tapping or oval head). Mark the positions on the wall according to the pre-drilled holes on the flanges. Then, attach the grab bar to the wall using the screws. Make sure it's firmly in place. When using the grab bar, hold it firmly to prevent slipping. For maintenance, simply wipe it with a soft, damp cloth regularly to keep it clean and looking its best. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the satin finish. Keep an eye on the mounting screws and check for any signs of loosening over time, and tighten them if needed.
