DMI Heavy-Duty Sloping Hi-Lo Tub Safety Bar
DMIĀ® Heavy-Duty Clamp-On Safety Bathtub Grab Bar (Chrome)
Tool-Free Clamp-On Mounting Mechanism, Fits Tub Walls 3-3/8" to 5-7/8" Wide, High-Low Dual Grip Architecture, Chrome-Plated Steel Frame, Protective Non-Marring Vinyl Sleeves
Stepping over high bathtub ledges is one of the most common fall hazards in the home, particularly when wet porcelain or fiberglass surfaces offer no reliable leverage points. Drilling into bathroom walls or tile studs isn't always feasible or permitted in rental homes. The DMIĀ® Heavy-Duty Safety Tub Grab Bar provides a secure, tool-free clamping rail engineered to attach directly to the side wall of standard bathtubs.
Constructed from heavy-gauge, rust-resistant chrome-plated steel, this safety bar features a high-low dual grip framework that gives users multiple handhold heights whether standing, stepping over the threshold, or lowering down into the tub. The adjustable clamping mechanism expands to fit tub wall widths from 3-3/8 inches to 5-7/8 inches and utilizes protective vinyl sleeves to prevent scratching or marring porcelain finishes. Supporting up to 250 lbs, it delivers essential posture stabilization without permanent wall drilling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this clamp-on grab bar fit any bathtub?
A: It fits most standard flat-walled bathtubs measuring between 3-3/8" and 5-7/8" thick. It is not intended for use on fiberglass tubs with severe lip angles or hollow double-walled plastic tubs.
Q: Will clamping the bar damage or scratch my bathtub finish?
A: No. The clamp pads feature protective vinyl sleeves that cushion the metal against the tub surface to prevent marring, scratching, or scuffing.
Q: Can I use this rail to pull my full body weight up from a seated bath position?
A: Clamp-on tub bars are designed as balance and stabilization assists during transfers. Users should maintain foot contact with the floor and use the rail for steadying support rather than bearing total body weight.
