Sea-Dog Stud Mounted Flanged Boat Handrail, 19-3/8 Inch, 304 Stainless Steel

This Sea-Dog Stud Mounted Flanged Handrail is a 19-3/8 inch grab rail built for boaters who want a larger mounting surface without visible hardware on the finished side. The flanged base spreads mounting load over a wider footprint for greater stability at the helm, gunwale, or companionway, and the flush design keeps the deck or cabin surface looking clean since there are no exposed screw heads on top.

The handrail is constructed of corrosion resistant formed 304 stainless steel, making it suitable for salt and fresh water environments where ordinary hardware would pit or rust. It mounts using two integral 5/16-18 x 1-5/8 inch threaded studs that pass through the mounting surface, and is secured from underneath with two 5/16-18 nuts (nuts not included). The 7/8 inch O.D. Tube gives a comfortable, secure grip for boarding, moving around the deck, or steadying yourself in rough water.

This is a universal-fit accessory and is not tied to a specific boat make, model, or engine, so it can be installed anywhere a stud-mounted handrail is needed.
