Bobrick 4207x60 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What lengths does the Bobrick B-4207 curved shower rod come in?
Two: a 60 inch (152cm) version, ordered as B-4207 x 60, and a 72 inch (183cm) version, ordered as B-4207 x 72. The length is the wall-to-wall dimension, so match it to your shower opening width. The curve pushes the curtain outward, so the usable space inside the shower is wider than a straight rod of the same span.
2) Will a curved shower rod like the Bobrick B-4207 fit a standard 60 inch tub alcove?
The 60 inch model is sized for the standard 60 inch alcove tub opening, which is the most common residential and hotel tub size. The 72 inch model covers wider openings and roll-in or transfer showers. Both mount surface-mounted to the side walls with swivel brackets, so the walls need to be solid enough to take anchors.
3) Is the Bobrick B-4207 shower rod heavy duty enough for a hotel or dormitory?
The rod is 1 inch diameter, 20-gauge (1.0mm) type 304 stainless steel, which is the wall thickness and alloy specified for commercial washroom use. The brackets are chrome-plated zinc die cast rather than plastic. That combination is what gets specified in hospitality, multi-family and institutional showers where curtains get pulled hard daily.
4) Is this a tension rod or does it have to be screwed into the wall?
The B-4207 is surface mounted, not a tension rod. Each end carries a swivel bracket that fastens to the side wall, so you will need appropriate anchors for your wall substrate, tile over backer, block, or stud. A mechanically fastened rod is what institutional and hotel specs call for, since tension rods come down when a curtain is pulled.
5) Why do the brackets on the B-4207 shower rod swivel?
The swivel brackets allow up to 55 degrees of rotation, which lets the rod seat correctly when the two side walls are not perfectly square to each other, a common issue in older masonry and in remodels. It also gives you some latitude on bracket placement height without binding the rod.
6) What finish is the Bobrick B-4207 rod, and do the brackets match?
Satin finish throughout. The rod is satin-finish type 304 stainless steel and the exposed bracket surfaces are finished in architectural satin, so the brackets visually match the rod rather than reading as bright chrome against it. That makes it consistent with satin-finish grab bars and accessories already in most commercial washrooms.
7) Will my existing shower curtain hooks fit the Bobrick B-4207?
The rod is 1 inch in outside diameter, which is the common commercial shower rod size, so standard shower curtain hooks and rings sized for a 1 inch rod will slide on. Curtains are not included with the rod, so order curtain and hooks separately.
8) Should I use a curved shower rod or a straight one in a small bathroom?
A curved rod like the B-4207 bows out over the tub, adding elbow room inside the curtain without changing the wall-to-wall span. That matters most in tight hotel and apartment baths on a standard 60 inch tub. A straight rod is the choice when the curtain has to hang flush, for instance where a shower door, ceiling soffit or adjacent fixture sits close to the tub edge and an outward bow would foul it.
