how thick is the bar?

Comfortable human grip. Similar to a dumbell bar. I did not measure mine, but my thumb and forefinger can touch. The foamaterial is quite squishy, bit it is easy to hold and grips well.

Depending on the weight of the bar, the diameters range from 1.5-2 inches, roughly the same as an empty paper towel roll.

It's just as thick as the bars used in gyms such as Lucille Roberts and New York Sports Club. I really can not tell the difference between the bar and the bars used at those gyms.

It is a little more than 1/4 inch thick. Hope that helps. We are very happy with the shower door.

Close to 1/4" thick ... It works well ... without saying don't drop it ... it will crack but not shatter ...

To the outside edge ... 3 1/2"To the inside edge of the bar 2 1/2" I was concerned it might come out "too far" when I opened it but actually it has proven to be just right. The hardware pretty well adjusts to fit any area you might need to place the bar (in my case vertical placement).

The very bottom bar behind the toilet? It's about 6.5" above the floor, with the bar being about .5" thick.

It's about 1/16" thick. There are little nubs that stick out about 1/8. It is working well for me. It is somewhat flexible but seems to come back to flat.

The bar is pretty substantial. Probably not good for a locker. I'd say it's about 3/8 in. diameter.

I'm sorry, I installed the bar at my mother in laws house so I can't measure it today, however, it seems you have a couple of good answers. If you are that tight with space you can also install it on an angle. Good luck

The bar is hollow but constructed very sturdily. More important is the way it attached to a wall. Mine is against the tiles next to the bathroom sink. You need to have someone attach it who knows what they're doing.

Not very thick at all.....I would say about 1/16" and that's all. It feels very durable though.

It's about 1.5 inches. It seems almost exactly the diameter as an Olympic bar.

Ok; answering my own question but posting as a response to another... 3/8" thick.

Don't know the exact thickness but this thing is SOLID! Pretty thick and not at all flimsy.

It's about 1.5 mm thick but very strong. I was able to put about 300 lbs on it and not break it.

Yes, I would say the bars are too thick. I tried one of my spring loaded clothes pins on there and it was not a good fit. Sorry!

I no longer have the bar, but I believe it was 18". The product was terrific, the person using it passed away. That is the reason I no longer have it.
