Bobrick 253 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size paper towel rolls does the Bobrick B-253 dispenser hold?
The B-253 takes roll towels up to 6 inches in diameter, with a roll width of 12-1/2 inches. If your facility currently buys larger-diameter rolls, they will not seat on the spindle, so match your towel order to the 6 inch maximum before standardizing on this unit.
2) Does the Bobrick B-253 roll towel dispenser lock so towels aren't stolen?
Yes. The molded ABS spindle has a retractable pin and a concealed locking mechanism, released with a special key that comes with the unit. For high-traffic public washrooms in schools, transit, or hospitality, that is what keeps whole rolls from walking off, and delivery is controlled rather than free-spinning.
3) Is the Bobrick B-253 recessed or surface mounted?
Surface mounted. It fastens to the finished wall face, so there is no wall cavity or blocking cut-out to coordinate, which makes it the practical choice in tile, block, or existing construction where you cannot open the wall. If you need a flush look in a new build, you would be looking at a recessed cabinet unit instead.
4) What is the Bobrick B-253 made of, and will it hold up in a public restroom?
The body is a heavy-duty aluminum casting in satin finish, not sheet steel or plastic. Cast aluminum takes abuse and does not rust, which is why it shows up in high-abuse and wet locations. The only plastic part is the molded ABS spindle that carries the roll.
5) Does the Bobrick B-253 need batteries or power?
No power at all. The B-253 is a manual, controlled-delivery roll towel dispenser, so there is nothing to wire and no batteries to service across a portfolio of restrooms. That is the reason property managers and MRO buyers keep specifying it over sensor units in low-maintenance settings.
6) What finish does the Bobrick B-253 come in?
One finish only: satin aluminum. There is no polished or painted option, so if you are matching existing washroom accessories, satin is what you will be blending with.
