metal traverse rod

Most listings either identify the rod as steel or label it generically as 'metal.' Some entries do not specify a material, so reporting is inconsistent across items.

Listings show both fixed unextended lengths (for example 24, 27, and 28 inches) and extendable ranges such as 24–40 inches and 28–48 inches. Some listings also reference larger pair sizes like 48x86 and 86x150.

Available finishes listed include brushed nickel and white, with other descriptions such as satin/brushed, enameled, plated, painted, and some listings noting no surface treatment.

Some rods are wall-mounted using brackets and included hardware, while others are tension-style or twist-to-install designs that require no tools for installation.

At least some listings specify that wall-mounting brackets and installation hardware are included. A subset of rod sets also mentions adjustable brackets, but inclusion varies by product.

Tension-style rods commonly list non-slip, non-scratch rubber end caps that hold the rod in place and protect the mounting surface from marks and scuffs.

Weights shown in product details include examples such as 2.5 pounds, 0.9 pounds, and 0.5 pounds, indicating variance between models.

Listed bracket projection values include 0.5 inches and 3.5 inches, and one description notes adjustable bracket projection in a 4–5.5 inch range. Measurements and formats vary between listings.
