does this item work on a fiberglass tub???

I believe all my tubs I've used this on are porcelan. The answer to your question I believe is whether other items that have suction cups stick to it. That's a sure fire way to see if it would.

I imagine it would work better on a fiberglass tub because of the smooth surface!

Yes it does... and wonderfully so. I'm amazed at how it doesn't leak since the little suction cups are spaced apart. It doesn't leak though. I've had mine for a couple of months now and I love it! I'll be using it later today. :) Oh and... the neat thing is that you can position the overflow hole anywhere that you would like the water level to be. On top gives max amount of water, but if less chance of tub overflow is desired, position the hole to one side, and however far down you would want. Play around with it to see where you like it the best. Also be sure to get in the tub prior to filling it all the way. You can always add more water as desired. Have a good bath! :)

If the fiberglass is smooth enough, it should work. the glue is very similar to caulk. I have only used it on tile, but it seems very secure.

Handy Andy . . I wish I could answer your question, unfortunately I have enameled coated steel tubs, it does work great on them.

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 can't really give an accurate response to your question, because my tub floor is fiberglass. This mat adheres to a pebbly-like surface quite well, but does need to be removed occasionally to completely dry out, so mold will not form on the bottom. I hope this helps.

I have a fiberglass jon boat and they did not work on mine. They tend to pop off the boat seats with a sudden movement (as in when you jerk the rod to catch a fish). I never (can't) use the ones I bought. Bill

I know somebody that removed it from fiberglass - they used a plastic paint scrapper - it took some effort but it did not damage it.May be able to use wd40 or some other adhesive remover to make it easier. I have not tried to remove mine yet and I have a porcelain tub.

It will work on fiberglass, but I would be concern about it cracking your ceramic tile. Make sure the measurement of you tub is compatible.

Not positive but I can tell you that the tightening mechanism is very secure and it is on the bottom end of the Clamp. The screw tightens so well I would think it would be safe. I don't believe it would slide sideways. Remember you can't use this on a plastic or fiberglass tub.

we've used it on a tile shower stall with good results ~ since you control how long the steam is on any one place, suspect it would work as well on fiberglass ~

Yes it will work. Fiberglass is listed in the product information as a suitable surface for using the stripper.

My tub surround is fiberglass and i had no problem installing this rod. Fortunately, i had 2x4 studs behind the fiberglass surround that almost perfectly lined up with where i needed to drill the holes thru the fiberglass and wallboard to install the rod. Using some longer screws than those provided allowed me to set the screws into the 2x4s and resulted in a very solid installation. This has been a great product for our needs.

I would think it would, since the surface between a vinyl and fiberglass is pretty close compare to a concrete one. You might want to go on the Hayward site and see what it says or email the company. I really like this gadget.

I used this in my fiberglass one. I applied a lot pressure to it as well and didnt have an issue. ..that being said tho I'd try an area thats not noticeable and apply pressure to make sure before you do the whole tub.

I did my entire fiberglass tub with it. It's great. I cleaned the tub thoroughly until it sparkled, rinsed it and then washed again with rubbing alcohol.It will also work on steel tubs. Just make sure tub is clean before applying. Mine has been on for months now and there is no peeling!

I would think so as long as there is a rim to attach the bar. My tub is ceramic and absolutely no problem. It's a wonderful safety bar--two grabbing areas--need to be certain it is tightened as much as it can be. Perhaps you're concerned that the fiberglass might crack?? How about cushioning it with rubberized netting--used as kitchen drawer liners, also under rugs that could skid.

I do not think so. It would not work on either of my bathtubs. Should have send it back but someone through the box away.
