Buderus NB Style Towel Racks

The Noblesse style towel racks are attractively designed 

with a vertical frame of two 2-3/4" round pipes connected 

horizontally with 1” curved round steel tubing precision 

welded in the interior. Two ½” NPT female tapings are 

available on the bottom of the towel rack for the supply 

and return. An air vent is already installed on the top right 

of the NB towel rack. The NB has an adjustable offset of 

3” and 4” from the wall.

All towel racks come in a multi-layered, powder coat 

enamel white finish that is durable, easy to clean and 

ideal for most existing color schemes. Supply and return 

pipes are reversible. Openings in the towel rack are 

provided to hang towels. Complete wall mounting 

hardware and a manual air vent is supplied with each 

towel rack.

For piping accessories available through Buderus for a 

clean, finish installation see Figures 1 and 2.
