• Exposed mounting screw holes are drilled and countersunk.

Grab Bar with Flanges for Exposed Mounting shall be fabricated of 18-8 stainless steel type 304; tubing shall be 1-1/4" (32mm) dia. x 18 gauge (1.2mm). Flanges shall be heliarc welded to tubing with a continuous concealed bead and shall be 1/8" (3mm) thick. Flanges shall have three (3) countersunk holes to accommodate mounting screws (not provided).

AASI Grab Bars are designed to meet and exceed ADA requirements as published in CABO/ANSI A117.1-1992 and CFR 28 Part 36, Federal Register Vol. 56 No. 144, 26 July 1991, section 4.21.3 and section 4.26.3, that fabricated product shall be of adequate strength to support a load of 250 pounds (113.4kg). Mounting to the wall is a critical part of the system to meet this requirement. To withstand the shear, tension or pull-out, and torsion loads generated by the maximum loading, the fastener system must be adequately sized.

Use grab bar as template to mark mounting holes locations and pre-drill holes. Install bar using three (3) No10 self-tapping pan head screws (not supplied) or other fastener system (not supplied) to suit conditions for each flange. Appropriate anchoring and backing must be provided in accordance with local building codes or as specified prior to wall finishing. For compliance with ADA Accessibility Guidelines unit should be installed so that the center line of the grab bar is 33" (840mm) minimum above finished floor (AFF) to 36" (915mm) maximum AFF. Anchors are available from ASI and must be specified separately (see 3900 series).
