https://www.buyrailings.com/web/image/product.template/3886/image_1920?unique=2862b24
Pipe Size: 1-1/2" IPS

Product Description

The Hollaender Speed-Rail® 48BC – Heavy Duty Rectangular Base Flange is a reinforced mounting flange designed to provide a secure, load-bearing attachment point for vertical pipes or posts. Its heavy-duty rectangular base offers increased surface area and stability compared to round flanges, making it suitable for higher-load or high-traffic installations. The slip-on design allows the pipe to be inserted directly into the barrel and locked in place using zinc-plated set screws—no welding or threading required.

Constructed from durable aluminum-magnesium alloy, the 48BC provides long-term corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior applications. It is commonly used when a stronger or broader mounting footprint is required, such as at stair landings, deck surfaces, platforms, or industrial environments. Always verify the correct IPS pipe size before ordering.
