Ring-shaped towel rail in 316L stainless steel

A ring towel rail solves a problem the straight bar cannot: hanging a hand towel in a narrow 232 mm gap between a basin and a window reveal. The loop is formed from AISI 316L stainless steel, the same molybdenum-bearing grade used on coastal and pool-side fittings, so steam and the chlorides in tap water will not stain or pit it the way they mark a plated fitting within a couple of years.

Key features

• 232 mm ring fits reveals and piers too narrow for a straight bar
• A single central boss carries the wall fixing without a visible bracket
• AISI 316L copes with splashback and steam better than plated brass
• Four PVD finishes coordinate with the taps and rails in the Volga range
• The rounded loop has no sharp edge to snag a hand towel

Specification and installation

The ring fixes to the wall through a single 27 mm tube, using the same 24 mm sleeve and 12 mm pin as the rest of the range, so it needs only one solid fixing point rather than two. It projects 136-148 mm off the wall, enough for the loop to clear the tiles and take a folded hand towel. Fit it beside the basin where a straight rail would not clear a window reveal.
