Sea-Dog 90 Degree Rail Tee Fitting, 7/8 Inch Tube, Chrome Plated Die Cast Zinc, 296090-1

The Sea-Dog 296090-1 is a 90 degree rail tee fitting sized for 7/8 inch outside-diameter tubing, used to join boat railing sections at a right angle. It is constructed of chrome plated die cast zinc, giving it a bright, corrosion-resistant finish suited to boat rail and stanchion systems. The fitting can be secured to the railing tube in one of two ways: with set screws, or by pop riveting using stainless steel or aluminum rivets, giving installers flexibility depending on the tools and materials on hand. Set screws are included with this display packaged fitting, and installation requires a 1/8 inch Allen wrench to tighten them down onto the tubing.

This tee fitting is designed for use with stainless tubing having a wall thickness of 0.049 inch, matching the 7/8 inch O.D. Rail tube commonly used in boat railing assemblies. It is recommended for freshwater use. The 296090-1 is the tee configuration in a broader family of rail fittings that also includes a 90 degree elbow and a 110 degree bow form, allowing a full railing run to be assembled from matching chrome plated die cast zinc components.
