ASI 0345-41 Soap Dispenser - Liquid, Horizontal - Matte Black - 40 oz. - Surface Mounted

The ASI 0345-41 is the horizontal-orientation surface-mounted soap dispenser in American Specialties' Matte Black Collection — a finish option for designers who want commercial-grade hardware in something other than bright stainless or chrome. Built from type 304 stainless steel with a matte black powder coated finish, the 0345-41 holds 40 fl. oz. (1.2 L) of liquid soap, mounts to any wall or partition, and uses a manual push-button valve with a tamper-resistant refill indicator. As an authorized ASI distributor, Total Restroom carries the 0345-41 with a Low Price Guarantee, and in-stock units typically ship the same business day.

Key Features

Type 304 Stainless Steel with Matte Black Powder Coat

The dispenser body is type 304 stainless steel finished with a matte black powder coat. According to ASI, the Matte Black Collection is "carefully curated to be versatile and powder coated for added durability" — a finish intended as an alternative to the bright stainless or chrome typical in commercial washrooms.

40 oz. Capacity with Tamper-Resistant Refill Indicator

The 40 fl. oz. (1.2 L) tank is sized for moderate-traffic restrooms. ASI specifies a tamper-resistant refill indicator on the unit, and the soap tank continues to feed properly until the soap level drops below the valve intake port, so maintenance can refill on a routine schedule rather than waiting for the dispenser to run dry.

All-Purpose Valve and Wide Soap Compatibility

The 0345-41 uses an all-purpose low-silhouette liquid soap valve compatible with bulk soaps in the 100–3,500 mPa·s viscosity range and 5.5–8.5 pH range — covering a wide span of commercial liquid hand soaps and thinner lotion soaps. ASI specifies that soaps containing reportable salts, chlorides, or alcohols should be avoided.

Locking Refill Door with Supplied Key

The hinged refill door at the top of the unit is opened with a special service key, supplied by ASI. The same hinged door is also where the unit's locking screw is installed — a single supplied screw, run through the refill door, secures the dispenser body to an interlocking wedge bracket on the wall plate. Removing or refilling the dispenser both require the supplied key.

ADA-Compliant When Properly Installed

The 0345-41 can be installed to meet 2010 ADA Accessibility Standards and 2015 ABA Standards when the centerline of the valve button is mounted no higher than 48" (1219 mm) above the finished floor. ASI's general utility recommendation is 42" AFF, or a minimum of 6" above the washbasin, with 4" of clearance above the unit for filling.

Which ASI Matte Black Soap Dispenser Is Right for You?

ASI lists two related model options alongside the 0345-41. The 0347-41 is the same surface-mounted matte black powder coated stainless steel soap dispenser in a vertical orientation, for installations where the available wall space is taller than it is wide. If you don't need the matte black finish, the ASI 0345 in standard stainless steel is the same horizontal dispenser without the matte black powder coat. If you've spec'd matte black hardware throughout the washroom, choose between the 0345-41 (horizontal) and 0347-41 (vertical) based on the orientation that fits your wall space best.

How Many Do You Need?

Plan one 0345-41 per handwashing lavatory in most layouts. ASI's installation guide recommends positioning the dispenser approximately 6" left or right of the lavatory centerline — so in a multi-sink restroom, one dispenser per sink keeps every user within reach of soap.

How much soap does the ASI 0345-41 hold?

The dispenser holds 40 fl. oz. (1.2 L) of liquid soap. The tank is refilled manually through a hinged door at the top, which is opened with the special service key supplied with the unit. ASI specifies a tamper-resistant refill indicator on the unit so maintenance can monitor soap level.

Is mounting hardware included with the ASI 0345-41?

The wall mounting plate and the locking screw that secures the dispenser to the bracket are supplied with the unit.

What is the difference between the 0345-41 and the 0347-41?

Both are part of ASI's Matte Black Collection of surface-mounted liquid soap dispensers in type 304 powder coated stainless steel.
