The Scudo Strive 1200 x 500mm Matt Black Heated Towel Rail uses twenty 22mm bars in three clearly separated groups, giving towels more distinct hanging positions than an uninterrupted ladder arrangement. Its tall, relatively narrow proportions make good use of vertical wall space, while the matt black finish brings a sharper architectural accent beside white ceramics, pale tiles or matching black brassware. With an output of 1648 BTU at ΔT50 and compatibility with an electric element installation, the Strive can be planned around both towel warming and the wider heating requirements of the room.
Check the available wall height, confirmed pipe centres and the room’s calculated heat requirement before ordering.
The 4 + 6 + 10 bar arrangement separates the twenty bars into distinct sections, helping users spread towels across the rail rather than bunching them in one area.
At 1200mm high and 500mm wide, the Strive provides a tall towel rail format without requiring an especially broad section of wall.
The matt black finish can tie in with black taps, shower profiles and accessories while providing clear contrast against lighter surfaces.
Allow for the complete rail height and suitable surrounding clearance, particularly beneath windows, shelves or sloping ceilings.
Existing or planned pipework should be checked against the 455mm C1 measurement and the stated 75–90mm C2 range before installation.
The towel rail is compatible with electric element installation, but an element is not included and must be selected separately where required.
The twenty 22mm bars are divided into three groups containing four, six and ten bars. This grouped layout creates clearer breaks across the rail, which can make it easier to position towels at different heights or allocate sections to different users. The arrangement describes how the bars are organised rather than adding to the overall bar count.
Allow for a finished size of 1200mm high and 500mm wide, together with a maximum projection of 90mm from the wall. The radiator depth is 30mm. Pipework must also suit the specified C1 pipe centres of 455mm and the C2 range of 75–90mm. These figures should be checked against the intended wall position and plumbing before drilling or altering existing pipes.
The towel rail produces 1648 BTU, or 483 watts, at ΔT50. Whether that is sufficient depends on the bathroom’s heat loss, including its dimensions, insulation, glazing and external walls. Use a room-specific heat calculation rather than relying on size alone. Although the Strive is compatible with electric element installation, the element is not included and its selection should be matched to the rail and intended installation.
