Abstract

A pair of support arms extend from a base adapted to be attached to a selected surface. The arms are spaced apart to receive a roll of coiled sheet material, such as toilet tissue or paper towels therebetween. A pair of opposed fingers, carried by the support arms rotatably support the roll. The fingers, which are biased to enter the hollow core of the roll are deflectively movable in separable directions in response to urging of the roll to receive the roll therebetween.
