marine-grade through-hole grab handle, widely used to provide secure handholds on boats, yachts, and RVs. In residential spaces, it also functions as a highly durable, corrosion-resistant bathroom or bathtub safety rail.
Installation Tips for Through-Hole Grab Bars
Check the Hole Spacing: Measure from the center of one mounting hole to the center of the other on your surface before purchasing, as exact dimensions vary between brands.
Use Backing Plates: For marine applications or fiberglass boat hulls, always use a backing plate behind the surface to distribute the pulling load and prevent cracking.
Seal the Holes: Apply a marine-grade sealant (such as 3M 4200 or 5200) around the bolts and mounting holes during installation to keep the setup completely watertight.
