Sea-Dog 60 Degree Center Handrail Fitting, 7/8 Inch Tube, 316 Stainless Steel - 285060-1
The Sea-Dog 285060-1 is a 60 degree center handrail fitting designed to join two sections of boat rail tubing at a 60 degree angle along the run of a rail, rather than at an end or corner. It is investment cast from 316 stainless steel, the marine-grade alloy chosen for its resistance to saltwater corrosion, making it suited to exposed deck and rail applications on boats. The fitting is sized for 7/8 inch outer diameter rail tubing and has a rail height of 1-13/16 inches, and it is secured with a #10 flat head fastener. This is the center-mount version of the 60 degree fitting, meaning it is used at a mid-rail joint rather than at a rail terminus. Sea-Dog also offers a 60 degree end fitting and 90 degree and 120 degree fittings in the same product family for boat builders and rail fabricators who need to match fitting geometry to a specific rail layout. At 0.28 pounds, the 285060-1 is a small, lightweight hardware component intended to be installed alongside matching rail tubing and other Sea-Dog rail fittings during rail assembly or repair.
