Adjustable handrail rod

The Strofix adjustable handrail rod is a stainless-steel connecting rod with an articulating joint that links a post to the handrail plate above it, allowing the rail angle to be adjusted. The rod has a height of 75 mm with an M8 thread, available in two diameters — ø12 mm or ø14 mm. Manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel with a satin finish.

This rod is the adjustable version of the post-mounted handrail fitting. Its articulating joint allows the angle of the handrail to be set relative to the post — essential on staircases and sloped runs, where the rail follows the rake while the posts remain vertical. It fixes to the top of a railing post and receives the handrail plate above. Compared with the fixed handrail rod (€1.63) and welding rod (€1.45), the adjustable version commands a higher price for its angle-setting capability. Select the diameter at order time.

Use cases:

• Angle-adjustable connecting rod between a post and handrail plate on staircases
• Sloped (raked) handrail runs where the rail angle differs from the vertical posts
• Post-mounted handrail assemblies requiring rail-angle adjustment
• Choice of ø12 or ø14 mm adjustable rod for post railings
• Component in a complete post-side handrail mounting system on inclined runs

FAQ

What makes this rod adjustable?

It has an articulating joint that allows the handrail angle to be set relative to the vertical post. This is needed on staircases and sloped runs, where the rail follows the incline while the posts stay vertical.

How does this differ from the fixed and welding rods?

The fixed rod (inner thread) and welding rod hold the rail at a set perpendicular angle, suited to level runs. This adjustable rod lets the angle be set for raked or sloped runs.

What diameters are available?

Two options: ø12 mm or ø14 mm. Select the diameter at order time.

What are the dimensions?

Height H = 75 mm, with a diameter of ø12 mm or ø14 mm and an M8 thread.
