Addtional Information:

These Medium Duty "Goldilocks" bars, with a 1 1/4" side profile are visually, so close to 1 1/2" bars, they create the same presence as the larger bar, but won't strangle your wallet. What we like about our Goldilocks bars, is the slightly raised round-over of the bar's face edge. Raised, rounded edges (as opposed to sharp, flat edges) greatly reduce the friction of stretching, allowing for a tighter, more even canvas face, while reducing the stress placed on the canvas and the person doing the stretching. The raised edge has two other benefits. They lift the canvas away from contact with the wood, and allow a slight "fudge factor" for gallery wraps that have a sharp transition between the face image and its side. The 1 1/4" width of the bar certainly helps to withstand bowing from taught stretching, but don't overlook using braces. Consider using them on bars over 34 inches.
