Sea-Dog Rail Mount Fairlead with Stainless Insert 327112-1, Fits 7/8 Inch to 1 Inch Rail

The Sea-Dog Rail Mount Fairlead with Stainless Insert (327112-1) is a deck hardware fitting designed to guide roller furling lines cleanly along a boat's rail, reducing chafe and keeping running rigging organized. It clamps onto rail tubing measuring 7/8 inch to 1 inch in diameter, making it a common fit for standard sailboat stanchion and rail systems. The body is constructed of UV resistant injection molded nylon, chosen for its resistance to sun and saltwater exposure over time, while a stainless steel insert lines the line-routing channel. That stainless insert is what sets this fairlead apart from an all-nylon design: it lets you run wire halyards or wire-core furling lines through the fitting without the wire sawing into or wearing down the nylon body. Stainless hardware is used throughout for corrosion resistance in the marine environment. Each unit includes the fairlead insert (082615) as part of the assembly, so it is ready to mount out of the box. The fitting measures 11/16 inch at one dimension and clamps to rail tubing of 7/8 inch to 1 inch, and it is finished in black to blend with most rail and hardware finishes. At a light 0.256 pounds, it adds minimal weight to the rail while providing a durable, low-friction path for furling lines to run without snagging on rail fittings, lifelines, or hardware nearby.
