Folding support bar 700mm nylon finish with stainless steel base

The foldable support bar of 700 mm, model GW11 30 09 00 by Genwec, is designed to provide a practical and safe solution in environments that require additional accessibility, such as bathrooms or showers. Made from high-quality materials, it combines the durability of AISI 304 stainless steel with the comfort of a nylon coating that enhances grip and user comfort. Its vertical folding system incorporates a progressive brake that allows a smooth and controlled motion when folding or unfolding the bar, ensuring safety in daily use.

Design and Materials

The main structure of the bar is made from AISI 304 stainless steel tubing of 25 mm diameter and 3 mm thickness, providing great robustness and resistance to corrosion. This material, widely recognised for its resistance in humid environments, ensures long-lasting durability of the product, even in adverse conditions. Additionally, the tube is coated with a layer of 5 mm nylon, providing a smooth finish and a pleasant feel, while offering a firm grip for the user.

The "U" shaped design facilitates access and comfortable use for anyone who needs additional support in bathrooms or showers. The wall brackets and hinges, made from AISI 304 stainless steel of 3 mm thickness, offer a solid and safe base that guarantees the stability of the bar, both in its fixed position and in its foldable movement.

Fixing System and Resistance

The bar is fixed to the wall using 4 screws and 4 nylon plugs (included), ensuring a firm and stable installation on different types of walls, especially on brickwork walls. Once fixed, the bar is capable of supporting a maximum static and dynamic force of 120 kg, providing a robust and reliable solution for users who require additional support in their daily activities.

The pivoting folding system allows the bar to fold vertically when not in use, optimising the available space in the bathroom. The progressive brake system ensures that the folding movement is smooth and controlled, reducing the risk of accidents from sudden or unexpected movements.

Applications

This support bar is ideal for installation in bathrooms, showers, and other spaces that need to improve accessibility and safety for people with reduced mobility. Its design and materials make it especially suitable for public environments, such as hospitals, residences for the elderly, hotels, or public bathrooms, where safety and accessibility are paramount.

Moreover, its nylon finish offers additional comfort, making it suitable for any user who needs extra support in bathrooms or similar areas. This material also facilitates its maintenance and cleaning, which is essential in environments that require high hygiene standards.
