Bobrick 6897.99 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Bobrick B-6897.99 grab bar work in a toilet compartment corner, or do I need two separate straight bars?
It's a single two-wall unit bent at 90 degrees, so it mounts across a corner and covers both walls with one piece instead of two separate straight bars. The legs run 42 inches and 54 inches, so the layout has to put the corner where the bend lands. It also suits the corner of a tub or shower.
2) Does this Bobrick corner grab bar meet ADA requirements for an accessible restroom?
Yes. The B-6897.99 complies with accessible design requirements including ADAAG in the U.S. for structural strength. ADA compliance on the finished installation still depends on your mounting heights and the blocking behind the wall, which the bar itself cannot control.
3) What is the grip diameter, and will it be easy to hold with wet hands?
Tubing is 1-1/2 inch (38mm) diameter, the standard accessible grab bar size. This version has a peened grip, a textured surface rolled into the satin stainless, which gives more traction than smooth tube in a wet shower or tub area.
4) Is the Bobrick B-6897.99 a surface mount bar or does it get concealed in the wall?
Surface mount. The flanges land on the finished wall face, so you don't open the wall to install it, but you do need solid backing or blocking at each flange location to carry the load.
5) What material and finish is this grab bar, and will it hold up in a high-traffic public restroom?
Type 304 stainless steel with a satin finish. 304 is the grade specified for commercial washrooms because it resists the moisture and cleaning chemicals in that environment, and satin hides scratches and water spotting better than a bright polish.
6) I'm standardizing grab bars across a building. Does the peened version match the smooth satin bars already installed?
Finish-wise yes, both are satin type-304 stainless at 1-1/2 inch diameter, so they read the same on the wall. The difference is the peened texture on the grip surface of the B-6897.99. If you want a visual match down to the grip, specify peened throughout; if the look just needs to be close, the satin finish carries across.
