ADA 18" Straight Grab (Contemporary)
Model T200-002
ADA 18" Straight Grab (Traditional)
STEP 1 Understand "Z" Fastener
• Each PermaTile™ Fastener is equipped with a stabilizing bracket. The bracket
ensures that grab bar mounts properly. Remove stabilizer after thin-set has
met minimum cure times specified by manufacturer.
Warning: Each threaded stud is covered with a plastic thumb screw to prevent
thin-set mortar from corrupting threads. Do not remove until after grouting.
Technical Fact:
Each PermaTile™ "Z" Fastener is constructed from high quality stainless
steel materials. The welded fastener is equipped with (2) 10-24 internal
threaded studs (only one pictured)
STEP 2 Determine Location & Install Fastener
Determine where the PermTile™ "Z" Fastener will be located.
•
First apply a 1/4" bead of urethane caulk to underside of "Z" Fastener to
waterproof.
•
Attach "Z" Fastener to wood studs with #8 x 2" wood screws (2-
provided). Fastener MUST be mounted to 2 stud placements 16" on
center.
•
After attaching fastener, apply a second bead of urethane caulk on top
of tile board edge, covering entire edge including fastener.
•
Place tile construction board on top of fastener system and attach
securely.
Technical Fact:
Each PermaTile™ "Z" Fastener will work with all 1/2" thick cement, fiber
and foam-core tile board materials. (Only use materials that meet ANSI
specification for tile construction.)
Attach #8 x 2" wood screw
using small perforations

STEP 3 Install Tile over "Z" Fastener
•
Apply thin-set mortar with no less than a 1/4" x 3/8" notch trowel, key
thin-set into perforations in "Z" Fastener.
•
Measure location of threaded stud by marking tile or using a tape
measure.
•
Transfer marks using a square.
•
Use only 10mm diamond drill bit (core), pre-drill all holes before applying
thin-set mortar. Back-butter tile making sure sufficient mortar is around
drilled hole.
Warning: Use only latex modified mortars that meet ANSI A118.4 or A118.11
performance standard. Notches or drilled holes should not exceed 3/8" in
diameter to ensure trim has sufficient surface area during grab bar mounting.
Inadequate mortar coverage around drilled or notched holes will result in tile
damages when tightening bushing and mounting grab bar.
Technical Fact:
When drilling glass tile always drill from both sides. Failure to do so will create
blow-outs and weaken tile structure. Do not mount grab bar to glass tile
where drilling has occurred on one side only.
Note: Mortar required around hole
Note: System will not work on tile thicknesses less than
