Bobrick Grab Bars

B-5806 Series — 1-1/4" Diameter

18-gauge Type 304 satin-finish stainless steel tubing, 1-1/4" (32mm) diameter — the minimum permitted by ADA. Concealed snap-flange mounting hides screws for a clean appearance. Available in standard satin finish and peened (.99) non-slip texture. Lengths from 12" to 54". Low Price Guarantee.

B-6806 Series — 1-1/2" Diameter

Same Type 304 stainless construction as the B-5806 but with a 1-1/2" (38mm) diameter tube — preferred in healthcare, aging-in-place, and high-use facilities where a thicker grip is specified. Concealed snap-flange mounting. Exceeds ADA structural requirements when properly anchored. Low Price Guarantee.

B-9806 Series — Snap Flange

Straight grab bar with a slip-resistant surface and snap flange for clean mounting. Available in 18", 24", 36", and 42" lengths. Complies with accessible design standards including ADAAG in the U.S.A. Satin-finish Type 304 stainless steel. Snap-flange covers mounting hardware for easy maintenance.

Peened vs. Standard Satin Finish

The .99 suffix (e.g. B-5806.99, B-6806.99) indicates a peened center grip — a textured, non-slip surface for wet environments like showers and locker rooms. Standard satin-finish bars meet ADA requirements for all commercial restroom stall applications. Peened texture is most commonly specified in healthcare, ADA shower, and fitness facility projects.

ADA Structural Requirements

ADA requires grab bars to withstand a downward force of at least 250 lbs when properly installed. Bobrick grab bars are engineered to exceed this requirement — the B-6806.99 series is rated to support up to 900 lbs of downward load when anchored into proper structural backing. Structural backing (blocking, studs, or concrete) in the wall is essential for code-compliant installation.
