Will this work on a clawfoot tub? If not does anyone know of one that will?

The bar has to be tightened to a smooth flat surface, but as I recall from many years ago, there is a "lip" and what the bar would have to be tightened to would not be wide enough. If there is a phone number or email address, call/write & ask. Of course, if it doesn't work, you can return it.

I would doubt that this tub bar would work on you claw foot tub, however you would be the best of that by looking at your tub and the dimensions and picture of the tub bar. Good luck!

Not sure what you mean by, "garden tub." But I used it as a wall mount for my claw foot tub.

I think this can work on a fiberglass tub IF the tub does not flex too much as the clamp is tightened. Mine wasused on a standard cast iron tube, so the clamping was certain.

I have installed this on a fiberglass tub for my mother and it works well for her. Mind you, she only weighs about 105 pounds!

I haven't used it in a tub. Might be to large. It does have rubber knobs in each leg, so if you do have a wide tub it will work. It's very sturdy.

There is some amount for adjustment but I do not know how much. This was installed for my parents' tub. I do not know if this is compatible for a claw foot tub. You may try calling the manufactuere's customer support for assistance.

Ours is 2.5" short of 5 feet, but yes, it's supposed to work on 5 foot tubs.

I don't know if this will help or not, but the rubber is real flexible and may conform to the shape of the tub. Not positive. I use mine over a drainer and it adapts to that. Sorry that's the best I have

Depending how agile you are this may work. My concern would be stepping down into the tub, would your footing be stable? The bar works well as an aid for balance but is not as stable as a wall mounted safety bar

As stated by other buyers here, the faucet comes with the kit, so as long as your faucet has the standard old 3 3/8 spacing, you will be OK. However, be aware that, depending on the age of the old faucet and the location of the tub, the removal will likely be a bear, and the tub may have to be dragged out at an angle to get good access to the old, rusty mounting nuts. Recommended that you get a plumber, because while you're in there, you should definitely replace the old supply lines and shutoff valves. Also, look for new 90 degree supply adapters. Finally, be aware that building codes in most areas require an "anti-siphon" faucet for clawfoot applications (faucet mouth is inside the tub)--the unit sold with the kit may not be compliant, but unless you're doing a permit on this change, you don't really need to worry too much.

I no longer have the house so I can't measure for you, but they worked out fine on our old claw foot tub. I did add another support to the ceiling to firm it up.

Honestly, I don't think it will work for your type of tub. The rollers use a catch inside the mount that is set and cannot be adjusted. I believe that the angle of your tub would cause the rollers to slope toward the tub. The only way that I could see this working is if you build a wedge behind the mount to account for the slope in your tub. Hope this helps.

I dp not think so. My tud is not as wide as most tuns and the chaie works realy well with mine And with the ajutebule legs and how it monts to the tub it should work just fine

I do not think so. I have claw foot tub which is around 38 inches across. The product does not have another 10 inches to expand. Sorry

I'm no longer in the same place (left in caddy in tub, sold with house). But from what I recall it fit fine across a standard-width clawfoot bathtub and would collapse or expand at least a few inches to fit a narrower or wider tub.

It might work if you used a lot of them and the tub was steel so they'd attach to the tub wall. These a pretty small light weight magnets. the are strong magnetically though. i think rated at almost 2 pounds of attachment capability.

Sorry to say but as long as we use a very dry, flat surface on our tub, making it stick has not been a problem for us. Good luck!
