Schaefer Double Stanchion Tube - 24"

The Schaefer Double Stanchion Tube - 24" is the lifeline support system you'll find on serious cruising vessels and production sailboats where safety and durability cannot be compromised. Built by Schaefer Marine, a trusted name in marine hardware for decades, this stanchion delivers the structural integrity needed to keep crew secure at the rail while underway. Whether you're racing offshore, cruising coastal waters, or crossing open ocean, quality stanchions are non-negotiable—they're your last line of defense.

This double stanchion tube stands 24 inches tall and is engineered to accept 5/16" (8mm) diameter coated wire lifelines, providing a clean, professional appearance while maintaining maximum safety standards. The 1-inch width and 1/16-inch thickness create a rigid yet lightweight profile that resists flexing under load—critical when crew members lean hard on the rail in rough seas. Constructed from marine-grade materials, the stanchion resists corrosion and UV degradation, ensuring years of reliable service in saltwater or freshwater environments. It integrates seamlessly with the Schaefer base 36-01, creating a complete lifeline assembly that meets USCG and ISO standards.

Cruising sailors, charter operators, and boatyard professionals choose the Schaefer Double Stanchion Tube - 24" when replacing worn stanchions or upgrading aging rigs. The 1.4-pound weight means minimal impact on your boat's weight and center of gravity, while the compact 25-inch shipping dimension keeps installation straightforward. Verify your existing base model before ordering—compatibility with Schaefer base 36-01 ensures a secure, code-compliant installation. For boats that spend serious time offshore, this is the stanchion tube that delivers peace of mind.
