A peened grab bar is a grab bar that has a brushed stainless steel finish with a textured surface that provides additional surface grip. Peened grab bars are especially helpful if the grab bar is going to be installed in an area that may be wet or if the user’s hands may be wet, such as a shower or bathtub.
The peened surface feels a bit more rough and textured than a standard smooth surface grab bar.
People generally refer to peened grab bars as non-slip grab bars, anti-slip grab bars, safety grab bars, and slip resistant grab bars.
Peened grip grab bars are ADA compliant. The textured finish actually does not affect ADA compliancy. However, some local ADA laws may actually require peened grip surfaces in public commercial bathrooms.
Yes, peened grab bar grips are created specifically for shower grab bar and bathtub grab bar applications, whereby the grips are generally grabbed with a wet hand.
During the grab bar fabrication process, the peening process consists of sand-blasting metallic balls with high pressure air onto a large portion of grab bar metal surface, which produces slight indentations. This sand blasting significantly enhances the gripping surface of the grab bar by increasing friction and reducing slippage.
Peened grab bars are similar to knurled grab bars by the fact that both surfaces have a textured finish. However, peened grab bars have a sand blasted and lighter textured grip as compared to knurled grab bars, which have a much deeper diamond pattern cross cut into the metal surface.
