Pipe Size: 1-1/2" IPS

Product Description

The Hollaender Interna-Rail® 185 – Post Return Swivel is a mechanical fitting designed to create a clean, ADA-compliant return from a handrail to a vertical post. The swivel action allows the return to align properly with the post while maintaining a smooth, continuous gripping surface and eliminating exposed rail ends.

This fitting is available in left-hand and right-hand configurations, allowing installers to select the appropriate orientation based on handrail direction and overall system layout. As part of the Interna-Rail® modular mechanical system, the 185 Post Return Swivel provides the appearance of welded rail without on-site welding and requires a Rivet Nut Tool for proper installation.
