Whitecap 33 Inch Premium Grade Teak 3 Loop Boat Handrail, Part 60104
The Whitecap 60104 is a 33-inch, 3-loop handrail crafted from premium grade, 100% solid teak, built to serve as a secure handhold on deck, cabin, or companionway surfaces where boarding and moving about the boat require a stable grip. Teak is prized in marine construction for its naturally high oil content, which allows it to resist warping, rotting, and insect damage while standing up to sun, salt, snow, and rain year round in either indoor or outdoor installations. This handrail is handcrafted using traditional joinery, including dovetail and mortise-and-tenon construction, for a strong, long-lasting assembly. All screw fittings are countersunk and plugged, and only high-quality waterproof adhesive is used to hold the joints together. Each piece is sanded and finished by hand to a rich, elegant luster before leaving the shop, and no other wood species are blended into the build, so the entire handrail is solid teak throughout.
The rail measures 33 inches in length with a height of 2-3/8 inches and a depth of 1 inch, and its three mounting loops are spaced 10-1/16 inches on center. Fasteners are not included and the mounting holes are not pre-drilled, giving installers flexibility to match their own hardware and mounting pattern. Left exposed to the weather, the teak will gradually mature to a silvery grey patina; applying a golden teak oil or sealer annually will preserve the original golden finish and enhance the natural grain.
