This 18-inch grab bar is crafted from durable 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel, which resists rust. The satin finish not only looks great but also reduces fingerprints. It's ADA compliant, making it accessible for all. The flange covers snap on easily to hide the mounting hardware and prevent tampering and vandalism. The cover snaps over the mounting flange dimples to conceal screws. The concealed mounting flange has a 31/8″ (79 mm) O.D. diameter with 2 screw holes and 3 locking dimples, and it's 1/8″ (3 mm) thick. The cover is also made of Type 304 stainless steel, with a satin finish, 22 gauge, and a 33/16″ (81 mm) diameter. It's a 1-1/2″ DIA (38 mm) series grab bar with a white powder coated finish.
Using this grab bar is easy. Just snap the flange covers onto the mounting hardware to conceal it. Make sure to attach it securely to a stable surface. When it comes to maintenance, simply wipe it with a soft cloth to keep the satin finish looking good. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they might damage the powder coating. This grab bar is designed to prevent tampering and vandalism, but in case of any issues, check the locking dimples and screws regularly. Also, since it's ADA compliant, it's suitable for a wide range of users. Keep in mind that it's made of stainless steel, so it should resist rust well, but try to keep it dry to prolong its lifespan.
