The SP-3 Grab Bar offers the best protection against falls among ligature resistant grab bars because it provides the most secure grip for patient support. It also has outstanding ligature resistance, including sloped flanges to guard against attachment left-to-right along the length of the grab bar. The SP-3 is suitable for use in showers and other wet environments. Drain grooves are available for enhanced drainage.
We stock 12″, 18″, 24″, 30″, 36″, 42″, and 48″ nominal lengths. Custom lengths are available from 6 inches to 12 feet.
