This swing-up grab bar is crafted from high - quality stainless steel type 304 alloy 18 - 8 with a sleek satin finish. It features a 1 - 1/2” diameter (Ø38) wall tubing hinge that rides on a solid bar axle, paired with twin torsion - spring counterbalance for smooth operation. There's a vertical position gravity lock with a manual release, and tamper - resistant screws let you lock the bar vertically. It can be easily operated with one hand. The grab bar tube comes with a plastic end cap to soften contact with the wall plate when in use. The exposed flange (1 - 1/2″ O.D) is peened, adding to its durability and style.
Using this swing - up grab bar is a breeze. Just use one hand to swing it down from the vertical locked position. You can unlock it manually when needed. When not in use, swing it back up and use the tamper - resistant screws to lock it vertically if you want. For safety, always make sure the bar is properly locked in the vertical position if you're not using it. As for maintenance, wipe it down regularly with a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they might damage the satin finish. With proper use and care, this grab bar will serve you well for a long time.
