A 170mm heavy-duty grab hand rail with screw studs is a strong safety handle frequently used on boats, yachts, RVs, and marine vehicles. Its defining feature is the use of built-in, hidden threaded studs on the bottom. These studs push through a wall or deck surface and are tightly secured from behind using washers and nuts. This design provides a incredibly solid hold while hiding all ugly screw heads from view.
Material: It is almost always crafted from 316 Marine-Grade Stainless Steel. This specific metal is chosen because it resists rust and corrosion caused by saltwater and harsh outdoor weather. Dimensions: The total length is 170 millimeters (which is about 6.7 inches). This compact size is ideal for tight spaces where you need a quick handhold, like near a cabin door or a cockpit steps.
Ergonomics: The rail usually features an oval grip profile. This rounded, flat shape fits naturally into the human hand to prevent your grip from slipping when things get bumpy.
Appearance: It is typically polished to a mirror-like finish, giving it a sleek look while avoiding any sharp edges that could cause injury.
