Whitecap Center Handrail Stanchion - 316 Stainless Steel - 7/8" Tube O.D. - 2 #10 Fasteners

The Whitecap Center Handrail Stanchion in 316 stainless steel is a critical safety component for any vessel where crew and passengers move along the cabin, deck, or cabin sides. This stanchion is designed for use on center consoles, trawlers, or cruisers in both saltwater and freshwater environments, providing a secure handrail system that enhances stability during rough waters or dynamic maneuvering.

Constructed from 316 stainless steel, this handrail stanchion offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard 304 stainless, making it ideal for marine operations where galvanic attack and pitting can lead to failure. The 7/8-inch tube outer diameter (O.D.) ensures a strong, rigid foundation that resists flexing under load while remaining lightweight for practical installation. It comes complete with two #10 fasteners for secure through-bolting to deck or cabin structures, ensuring a solid connection that won't loosen or fail under dynamic stress.

This stanchion is essential for both retrofit and new-build projects where code-compliant handrail systems are required. Boaters performing deck upgrades, cabin modifications, or safety improvements will find this stanchion to be a reliable choice for enhancing safety and stability on their vessels.
