How to Choose Wholesale Shower Hardware Accessories?

Most modern households opt for shower enclosures, prized for their health benefits, warmth, and separation of wet and dry environments. Therefore, paying attention to the selection of shower hardware accessories is crucial.

How to Choose Shower Hardware AccessoriesThe composition of a simple shower enclosure includes glass, aluminum, pulleys, hardware accessories, rubber strips, and artificial stone. Shower hardware accessories include copper fittings, stainless steel fittings, wall brackets, and hinges. These are essential components of shower enclosures, as detailed below by Yali Shower Room.

Stainless Steel: Grade 304 stainless steel, independently designed and molded, ensures precision, quality, and fit. Fully automated multi-process polishing achieves a mirror effect, offering high-grade appearance, strong corrosion resistance, high hardness, deformation resistance, and long service life. After undergoing 24-hour salt spray testing, it meets standards of level 10 or above.

Copper Hinge: Made of 59# copper alloy, with strong load-bearing capacity, meticulously hand-polished, and with a plating layer thickness equal to that of international brands reaching 11um, it exhibits a mirror effect, showcasing metallic texture. With strong corrosion resistance, high hardness, deformation resistance, and long service life, it undergoes 24-hour salt spray testing (exceeding the national standard of 8um) without exhibiting adverse phenomena such as black spots, bubbling, or delamination on its surface.

Shower Hardware Accessories 1. PulleysThe frame is primarily made of aluminum alloy or stainless steel nowadays. Stainless steel is resistant to acid and alkali, with excellent quality, but slightly more expensive at 200-300 yuan/square meter. However, not all stainless steel is of high quality. Domestic 201 and 202 products easily rust. At least Grade 304 stainless steel is required to resist rust.

Shower Hardware Accessories 2. GlassThis also depends on the quality of the frame. Good stainless steel can support 10mm or 12mm thick tempered glass, while good aluminum alloy can handle 8mm thick glass. Frames with lower strength can only support 5mm or 6mm thick glass, resulting in lower safety. For glass selection, automotive-grade tempered glass offers superior toughness, with a very transparent appearance and no particles or pinholes. There is also a type of easy-clean glass where shampoo and shower gel slide off like water droplets, unlike ordinary glass, which accumulates a layer of dust after long-term use.

Shower Hardware Accessories 3. Water StopperThere are two types of water stoppers: artificial and natural. Natural stone is relatively inexpensive and suitable for bathhouses already tiled. Artificial stone, being formed in one piece without seams, does not easily retain debris but is relatively expensive, suitable for rough renovations.

Shower Hardware Accessories 4. TrackThe track is also a technical aspect of shower enclosure selection, with many enclosures experiencing problems in later use, often due to the pulleys. Many pulleys are covered with nylon jackets but have metal inside. It is best to choose pulleys made of Grade 204 stainless steel, followed by copper. As for alloy materials, they easily rust and belong to inferior materials, posing a risk of falling off after a long time. The quality of pulleys is not difficult to discern. You can try pushing them out with your hand. Stainless steel pulleys slide out smoothly, while lower-quality products require more force to move.
