Is it strong enough to hold a heavy stainless steel 12 inch shower head?

Define "heavy"...It holds this one - Culligan RDSH-C115 RainDisc Showerhead with Filter, Chrome Finish - and has been used multiple times per day since August 2013. Filter changes at two months because the water is so harsh here... BTW, I had the same concerns that you did but decided to give it a try and am happy with it!

To be honest, I don't know. However, I do know that since I installed this item to support my rain disc filtered shower head, I have had absolutely no problems.

Can't say for sure, but I would think so. I used it for a 6" shower head. More than the size, I would think the weight of your shower head is what you should consider. The metal in the arm is strong. The tightening of the connections is likely the more important factor in holding up the shower head itself.

yes it is very strong, and adjustable at both ends, which is a nice feature

The unit itself is not heavy and probably won't pull down a tension placed shower rod. However when you place clothes on the unit then the weight of the clothes will probably pull the tension rod down.

It should hold it just fine. The jaws on the head are very adjustable and I have used it on a round seat post and aero shaped seat tube.

Yes, it will hold that weight. The only caveat is that you must mount the mounting plate into either a solid wall or into solid studs. I had to use channel iron anchored into two studs to create a stable platform upon which I could mount the support. They are great supports, but the mounting plate will require you to pay attention to the wall you are mounting onto.

Yes, it would be more than strong enough. I use it to hold some pretty heavy cruiser bikes.

I have only used it for towels and jewelry, so I can't give an informed answer. It's aluminum, so my guess is that it wouldn't support anything heavy, like metal tools. This rack is designed for organization and visibility of smaller items. For heavy things, better to use a pegboard and hook system.

Yes. As long as you follow the instructions and leave it dry and unused for 24h (or maybe it was 12h?), this will withstand anything. We have a big, heavy shower head and really good water pressure: this works great.

It has rubber feet on it. But how stable it would be in a shower I don't know. Would think best to have it braced up against something. Be careful.

Not really. Only had it a few months. And with daily use the rubber washers wore out. The overhead shower head is too heavy for the weak poorly place wall bracket mount.

i'm thinking since it's made for just a shower curtain, i don't think it will support much. i would order a steel bar for that.

Highly doubtful that it would hold up to the pressure. Mine broke with a regular faucet.

It's very easy to tighten. I have an 8" square waterfall shower head and it holds just fine. I have no idea how long it will hold up to frequent tightening and loosening. If you don't crank it super tight I imagine it would last a long time.

I dont think it would hold it, by weight or the curve in the 's' isnt big enough either. these are to hang pots from a rack

I use it to hold towels but it is sturdy. I think it could hold some weight.

I don't think it will hold the weight of a towel. I am using ours as hat racks.

Yes and no. Anything's possible with plumbing fittings, but the unit is designed (and I assume pressurized) for that head, plus it fits the holder. You can make a larger head irk, but it would be clunky. The hand-held head actually provides a lot of pressure even though it looks like an afterthought.

Probably a bit but i wouldnt. Being stainless steel, its strong but at this length it would be brittle and break on any hard impact.
