Delaney - 3/4" Diameter Towel Bar Only

Three lengths: 18, 24 and 30 inches. Pick by the span between your existing posts, measured post center to post center, not by the width of the wall. All three lengths come in Polished Chrome, Satin Nickel and Tuscany Bronze.

That is exactly what this is for. Delaney sells the 3/4 inch bar on its own, so if the posts are still solid on the wall you pull the broken rod, drop in the new one in the matching length and finish, and leave the anchors undisturbed. Confirm the rod diameter is 3/4 inch and match your span to 18, 24 or 30 inches.

The Delaney 3/4 inch diameter towel bar is the bar only. If you need the bar and its mounting posts together as one purchase, the Orca Hardware 36 Series Swirl Towel Bar Set, the Orca Hardware 27 Series Swirl Towel Bar Set, the Orca Hardware Camano 24 inch Towel Bar Set in the 37-Camano Series, and the Orca Hardware 48 Series Blakely Towel Bar Set are all sold as sets. Buyers replacing a snapped bar in existing posts want the bar only; buyers starting from a bare wall want the set.

The Delaney 3/4 inch diameter towel bar is a single bar. For two towels on one set of mounting points, the Emtek Traditional Brass Double Towel Bar is a double bar in the Traditional Bath Hardware series, and the Emtek Sandcast Bronze Brass Double Towel Bar is a double bar in the Sandcast Bronze Bath Hardware series. A double bar carries a second towel off one wall footprint, which matters in a shared bath or a rental unit turned for two occupants.

A replacement bar is the rod alone and depends on posts already anchored to the wall in the right span and bore. A set gives you the rod and the mounting posts together, which is what you want on new construction or when the old anchors are torn out of the drywall. Orca Hardware sells sets in the 27 Cypress, 36 Swirl, 37 Camano and 48 Blakely series, and Emtek offers single and double bar configurations in its Modern Brass, Transitional Brass, Traditional Brass and Sandcast Bronze bath lines.

For a stated solid brass bar, look at Deltana instead: the 55D2002/18 and 98C2002/18 Classic are 18 inch solid brass bars, and the 88TB12 is a 12 inch solid brass bar in the 88 Series. Deltana also lists the BBN2002/18 at 18 inches. The Delaney bar is offered in five plated finishes including US4 Satin Brass and US12P Tuscany Bronze.

The Deltana 55D2002/18, Deltana 88TB12, and Deltana 98C2002/18 are all described as solid brass towel bars, in the 55D, 88, and 98C Series respectively. On the Emtek side, the Modern Brass Towel Bar sits in the Modern Brass Bath Hardware series and the Transitional Brass Towel Bar in the Transitional Bath Hardware series. Match the series to the styling of the room - modern, transitional, or classic - since all of them cover the same basic job of holding a towel.

The Delaney 3/4 inch diameter towel bar is offered in US12P Tuscany Bronze and US19 Black, alongside US26 Polished Chrome, US15 Satin Nickel, and US4 Satin Brass. If you want a cast bronze look instead of a plated bronze finish, the Emtek Sandcast Bronze Brass Double Towel Bar is in the Sandcast Bronze Bath Hardware series, though it is a double bar rather than a single.

Yes, and that is the practical reason to buy the bar on its own. All three lengths, 18, 24 and 30 inches, are offered in the same three finishes, US26 Polished Chrome, US15 Satin Nickel and US12P Tuscany Bronze, so units with different bar spans still read as one finish package. US4 Satin Brass and US19 Black are listed finishes as well.

All three land at 18 inches. The 55D2002/18 is in the 55D Series and solid brass, the 98C2002/18 is a Classic bar in the 98C Series and solid brass, and the BBN2002/18 is in the BBN Series. They are separate design series, so the decision is which series matches the rest of the bath hardware you are running in the unit.
