Sea-Dog Stud Mount Flanged Stainless Steel Boat Handrail, 13-1/2 Inch

This Sea-Dog stud mounted flanged handrail gives boaters a secure, corrosion resistant grab point along a deck, cockpit, or companionway. It is formed from 304 stainless steel, so it resists salt spray and marine corrosion far better than painted or plated steel alternatives, and the formed construction keeps the rail strong without adding excess weight. The stud mounted flanged design provides a larger mounting surface than a standard stud mount rail, which spreads load over more area and adds stability at each end. Two integral 5/16 inch-18 x 1-5/8 inch threaded studs are built into the base flanges, so once the rail is bolted down there is no visible mounting hardware on top of the flange, giving a clean, finished look. The tube itself has a 7/8 inch outer diameter, sized for a comfortable, secure grip in wet conditions. This particular size has an overall length of 13-1/2 inches (A), a base length of 12 inches (B), a height of 2-1/4 inches (C), and a width of 1-1/2 inches (D). Installation requires two 5/16 inch-18 nuts, which are not included and must be sourced separately. This handrail is also offered in 10 inch, 19-3/8 inch, and 25-1/4 inch overall lengths under different Sea-Dog part numbers, so be sure to match the 254212-1 part number if this 13-1/2 inch size is what your boat requires.
