Sea-Dog 285160-1 Stainless Steel Handrail End Fitting, 60 Degree, 7/8 Inch Tube O.D.

The Sea-Dog 285160-1 is a 60 degree End fitting used to terminate a custom stainless handrail run on a boat. It is designed to be used with 7/8 inch OD stainless steel tubing, allowing builders and installers to assemble handrails to a specific length and configuration rather than relying on a fixed pre-made rail. The fitting is investment cast from 316 stainless steel, a grade chosen for its corrosion resistance in marine environments, and has a grey stainless finish.

The fitting has a rail height of 1-13/16 inches and mounts using a #10 flat head (FH) fastener; fasteners are not included and must be sourced separately. Installation and adjustment of the fitting on the tube is done with a 1/8 inch Allen wrench. Set screws, where used on fittings in this line, are sold separately under part number 299999-1. The compatible stainless tube for this fitting has a wall thickness of 0.049 inch.

This is an End style fitting, meaning it is used at the termination point of a rail run rather than at a mid-rail junction. It is not designated as a port or starboard specific part.
