The Mobeli QuattroPower Bathtub Support Grab Bar Short can be easily attached to walls inside and outside the tub and is designed to enable a person to maintain stability and balance while entering and exiting a tub or shower area to help prevent accidental slips and falls. With three swivel points among the grab bar, it can be positioned in a number of customized and safely grabbable configurations. The 33.50-inch support grab bar will easily span a tub or stretch across wall corners to provide an optimal place to grab while entering the tub or while taking a shower. The support bar has two pairs of strong 5 ½-inch suction cups that will steadfastly hold the grab bar to most facility or home bathroom wall surfaces. The bar is lightweight, compact, and very easy to assemble and disassemble which makes this a great grab bar to take on vacations or extended visits.
Examples of surfaces that will not work:
New construction with only a few coats of paint will still allow the suction pad to suck air through the plasterboard or drywall. The suction pad will not hold and may even pull the paint off the wall.
Natural stone, clay or cultured marble which has a not been coated with sealant will allow the suction pad to suck air and release.
Textured surface, whether stone, cement, tile or plaster will not hold the suction pad.
Cracked plaster or wall surface. Walls with seams in the grab bar area.
Tile smaller than 5” square. A suction pad over a grout line will release. Plastic tile will not support your body weight.
Dirty, oily, greasy wall surface. Clean surface with alcohol first.
Wallpaper, the suction pad will peel the paper from the wall behind it.
Tub surround walls that are not properly attached to the wall behind them. Although the suction pad may hold to the wall, the wall itself may pull away under your weight.
What surface will work:
Tile greater equal to or larger than 5”x5”, with a smooth surface.
Smooth fiberglass, porcelain, enamel-coated cast iron tubs.
Vinyl, plastic or fiberglass tub surrounds that are firmly attached to the wall or house framing behind them. Securely attached with construction adhesive or mechanical means (screws or nails). They must have a smooth, clean surface.
