Sea-Dog Rail Base Fitting 2-3/4" Round Base 30° 316 Stainless Steel - 1" OD

The Sea-Dog Rail Base Fitting 2-3/4" Round Base 30° 316 Stainless Steel with 1" OD is a marine-grade hardware component engineered for demanding saltwater and coastal environments. Constructed from investment-cast 316 stainless steel—the same corrosion-resistant alloy specified for offshore platforms and naval vessels—this rail base fitting delivers long-term durability in high-moisture conditions where standard stainless steel would degrade.

The 30° angled design accommodates applications requiring precise angular mounting, while the 2-3/4" round base provides a stable foundation for rail attachment. A 1" outer diameter suits standard marine railing systems and structural piping. Installation employs three fastener holes (fasteners sold separately) and set screw capability for added security. The fitting accepts a 1/8" Allen wrench for set screw tightening. Investment casting ensures uniform material density and consistent dimensional tolerance across production, critical for load-bearing marine hardware where failure can create safety liabilities on deck.

This component suits commercial fishing vessels, yacht rigging, dock infrastructure, and any saltwater application where galvanic corrosion or rust staining compromises performance. Operators in marine environments—from fishing fleet managers to yacht riggers to industrial maintenance crews—rely on 316 stainless steel hardware to eliminate replacement cycles and maintain system integrity through multi-year service intervals. The 0.049" wall thickness of compatible stainless tubing balances structural rigidity with weight efficiency typical of marine-grade systems.

Sea-Dog is recognized in the marine industry for hardware specifications that meet or exceed ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) standards. Rail base fittings in this profile are standard across commercial and recreational marine platforms where corrosion resistance and structural reliability are non-negotiable.
