Stainless steel T-shaped railing foot 60° - Angled deck mounting with branch

The 60° stainless steel (AISI 316) T-shaped railing base combines deck mounting with a lateral branch in a single component. Its 60° angle makes it ideal for angled railings – the perfect solution for complex railing constructions at the bow and stern.

Product features

• Stainless steel 1.4401 (AISI 316) - Highest corrosion resistance
• 60° angle - Optimal angle for sloping railings
• T-piece function - deck mounting with side branch
• Right-hand version - For the right side
• Two pipe sizes - For 22mm and 25mm pipe diameters
• Saltwater resistant - Ideal for continuous maritime use

Available versions

Application areas

• Slanted railings at the bow and stern
• Stern and bow pulpits (pushpit/pulpit) with branches
• Complex railing constructions
• Handrails with lateral bracing
• Bimini supports with cross braces
• All applications with 60° angle and T-connection

Function and benefits

The T-piece combines two functions in one component:

• Deck mounting - Secure hold on the deck like a normal railing foot
• Side branch - Additional connection for cross braces or reinforcements
• 60° angle - Ideal for sloping profiles, such as those frequently found at the bow and stern
• Space-saving - One component instead of two separate fittings

Right-hand version

The right-hand version means that the side branch is located to the right of the main pipe (when viewed from the deck).

Tip: Plan your railing construction carefully and determine the required orientation before ordering. For symmetrical constructions, you will often need mirror-image versions for both sides.

Material advantage of stainless steel 1.4401 (AISI 316)

Stainless steel 1.4401 (also known as AISI 316 or V4A) offers optimal properties for maritime use:

• Molybdenum-containing - Highest corrosion resistance
• Saltwater resistant - Suitable for continuous use in aggressive environments
• UV-resistant - No embrittlement from sunlight
• Highly durable - even under heavy mechanical stress
• Maintenance-free - No care or after-treatment required

60° angle - Why?

The 60° angle is ideal for:

• Bow baskets - Natural course of the railing at the bow
• Stern baskets - adaptation to the hull shape
• Ergonomic handrails - Comfortable grip position
• Slanted supports - Optimal force transmission in bimini constructions

Assembly instructions

• Reinforce the deck at the mounting point (e.g. with a plywood sheet under the deck)
• Drill through holes for fastening screws
• Apply sealant to base
• Secure with stainless steel screws and washers
• Secure nuts below deck with locknuts
• Insert and secure the pipes into the sockets.

Size selection

22mm tube diameter (EK87048): For lighter constructions and smaller railing tubes.

25mm tube diameter (EK87050): Standard for most railing tubes and stable constructions.

Important: Measure the outer diameter of your pipes to choose the correct size.

Typical applications

• Bow basket construction - Slanted supports with lateral bracing
• Rear basket reinforcement - Additional cross braces for increased stability
• Handrail systems - Complex layouts with branches
• Bimini supports - Angled mounting with cross braces
• Davit constructions - Stable base with lateral bracing

Note: When planning, ensure that the side branch points in the correct direction. If you are unsure, you can make a sketch of your planned construction.

Ideal for

• Boat builders for complex railing constructions
• Professional shipyards
• Boat owners for conversions and extensions
• Repair of bow and stern pulpits
• DIY projects with demanding requirements
• All applications with 60° angle and T-connection
