Build-Your-Own No-Drill Railings

Combine bases, rails, gates, and toeboards to create a barrier customized to your needs. Base is weighted to allow installation without drilling holes.

To protect the work surface from scuffs and scratches, use nonskid pads.

Use rail-to-base connecting pins to secure the rails to the bases.

Steel and Iron Cord Grips

Cord Grip

Locknut and O-Ring Kit

Stronger than aluminum cord grips, these grips are zinc plated for corrosion resistance. As you tighten the grip, a nylon inner ring and lubricated rubber bushing secure your cable, prevent overtightening, and create a seal around the cord to block out liquid.

Locknut and O-ring kits (sold separately) create liquid-tight seals between cord grips and enclosure knockouts. Rated NEMA 4X, NEMA 13, and IP66, the resulting seals provide indoor and outdoor protection against dust, corrosion, water projected from a hose, and oil/coolant spray. Each kit includes two locknuts and two O-rings—enough to seal two cord grips.

Heavy Duty Handrail Mounting Brackets

Designed for heavy duty applications, these brackets support metal and wooden handrails on stairs and ramps.

Steel and iron brackets are strong enough to reliably support handrails that are used frequently. Powder-coated iron brackets are more resistant to scratches and dents than uncoated or painted iron.

Cast brackets are stronger than formed brackets.

Styles 1-3 have mounting holes in their base to mount to the wall. Styles 1 and 3 have a saddle for fastening or welding the handrail. Style 4 brackets come with a fastener and an anchor for mounting to the wall. They also have a saddle for securing the handrail (mounting fasteners not included).
