Selection of mounting for heated towel rail

When repairing the bathroom or simply when replacing a heated towel rail, with their own hands, the question arises: how to fix the heated towel rail? Modern dryers are usually equipped with two fasteners. If, when purchasing it, the fastener is missing or there is a need to make fasteners more reliably, you need to get the mount separately.

Fasteners can be size in ¾, 1 and 1 ¼ inches (28, 32, 38 mm, respectively). Depending on the diameter of the drying pipe, the suitable mount is selected for the heated towel rail.

Also, when acquiring it is necessary to pay attention to the material from which the fastener is made. It can be polished stainless steel, chrome-plated or enamel steel, chrome brass, also molding can be made of two metals - case material - chrome brass, ring and rod are made of chrome steel. Accordingly, the material from which drying itself is made, the mount for the heated towel rail is selected.

I would like to note that steel products - the product is domestic and stronger and reliable.

They are made in accordance with GOSTs and are well suited for our systems.

Fasteners for drying there are two types:

1. Bracket is simple.
2. Bracket telescopic (in-point and detachable).

Telescopic fasteners are more functional (allows you to adjust the distance to the wall) and aesthetically more attractive than a simple mount for the heated towel rail. But it is 2-3 times more expensive.

It is better to choose fasteners in specialized building stores, preferring products of well-known manufacturers.
