Can this be used on wood curtain rods to help wood rings slide more easily?

It might be usable, but difficult and expensive. The sticky back adheres well to smooth wood. A wax would be cheaper, but would have to be reapplied every so often.

I suppose it would if it was lying flat. They are just silicone that has a sticky back to hold them in place. I would thing bees wax would work on your curtain rods. Just a thought.

I wouldn't think so. The slick strip is rigid and would not conform or adhere to a rounded surface.

Try Gulf Wax parafin from your hardware store. Rub it on and it should last a long time...time tested, it's been used to make drawers slide well for about a century.

It pushes out or in, will not move up or down. The top mounting screws will insure you don't mount too high for curtain rings to move freely.

No, the curtain shower rod does not slip when damp. There is just enough spring tension to hold it in place. I would not hang a bunch of heavy wet towels on it.

I have the 'L' shaped bar and the support bracket I chose goes around the bar in a complete ring...the curtain rings will not slide past in either direction... I believe there were other choices, but this worked best for me...

no, that 1/4" difference in size will not keep rings in placeI do which I would find a replacement for a wooden rolling pin and set of wooden rings. Worked perfectly for years, until I leant it out to a family member, working well for her now LOL!

No the shower rings can't slide past the ceiling support, so we installed it around the corner a bit so as to make more room to move the curtain aside on one side of the corner, if that makes sense to you. We didn't put the support right on the corner.

Yes if the rod is no larger than 1 3/8" in diameter. I am using them on my wooden rods of this size. They are the best ever!!!!

Very easy to put on and take off rod. Slide easily. I have both a liner and curtain on each hook. Hooks are very easy to work with.

Hello, Tom from the ShowerAuthority team here. You can bend the curtain rod profile 90 degree as long as you maintain a minimum of a 6 inch radius. It is helpful to bend the profile around some round object and make "babysteps" while bending. The profile will spring back a little and it's best to do it in small increments until you reach the final shape.

I have not used it on a curved rod, but It has round metal rings where it attaches to the rod, and they are big enough that I am quite certain that it would slide with no problems. Also this shower curtain is lighter in color than the picture shows, it is almost a bone/white color, I almost returned it because I thought it would be darker as the picture shows. The quality of it is very good though, and I have gotten used to the lighter color. Hope this helps.

I think it might not stay fixed and begin to sag if the material attached has much weight to it. If used on a very light fabric it might work. In my case, I'll be using it with curtains I intend to attach at the very top to clip-ons on rods, so it might work for that. But for me, the time it takes to sew it on will let me know that it will be firm for as long as the curtains last.

Not sure. I guess the tension rod could go between the door jamb where the slide opening is and the top of the door of the non-sliding part. Or, you could try using some alternate method (Velcro or little tack-nails?) to mount it to the outside jamb.

I don't think so, unless you have very fragile wood. I have it on the inside of some wood drawers and had to lift & reapply because I went crooked during installation, but everything was ok.

Hi John,If you are considering a curtain with the metal holes for the rod to fit through, you can but you would have to undo the rod if you want to remove the curtain.

I don't know what a sliding door drapery is or how it's different than regular drapes. This rod is pretty sturdy and you'd have to be using some abnormally heavy drapes for these to bend. Also, these rods allow for easy sliding vs. other rods I've had. I hope that helps.

yes..however..the weight of JUST a curtain may tip it off the rail, since it works, basically, like a see-saw. Best to pick a different shower ring if u only want it for a curtain.

I am not sure how you are intended to use this, but it's heavy and if the diameter/circumference is right, I don't see the reason to not be able of putting on top of your wood table. Although, glass and wood may not have good friction which glass can slide may cause damage to table.
