When using the 6000 Handrail and securing to a 4000 3 1/4 Newel what fastening method / kits should be used?
Thank you for contacting us, Bruce. We would certainly recommend our S-9601 Angled Rail Bolt Kit for securing the handrail and newel that you mentioned in your question.
I have used the angled rail bolt fastener to connect the angled rail to the newel post. One end was easy. But, I can’t figure out how to get the other end of the rail onto the bolt on the other newel. There is no clearance. Help!

What is the size (dia.) and length of the lag? I will need about ten for my project and want to make sure these will work.
Thank You
Bob Mitchell
Thanks for the question rsdmitch46,
I have one here in my office and it looks like the diameter is about 1/4″ on the end that goes into the newel and 3/8″ on the end that goes into the handrail. The entire bolt is 5″ long.

Are these acceptable to be used on hollow boxed Newell’s (3/4” thick)?
Thanks for the question Mike.
The rail bolt should have at least 2 inches of wood to go into. With a hollow box newel, you could theoretically put another board, like a 2×4 inside it to provide the thickness needed for the rail bolt.
