Specifications
A Turned Newel Post is a synthetic alternative to the traditional lathe-turned wood post. Polyurethane newels look and feel much like wood, with crisp, clean lines and a warm feel. This turned newel post has a internal pipe which allows for our Newel Installation Kit which is very strong and completely hidden. The turned profile perfectly matches our 3 1/2″ Classic Porch Spindles as seen here. It has also been used successfully with other spindle designs, especially our 2 1/2″ Poly Spindle.
Actual size: 5 1/2″ wide. Can be cut to desired length if needed. Cut poly newels just as you would cut wood.
“Turned” portion is 15″ high, centered in the newel. Square portions (top and bottom) are 15 1/2″ each. The 46″ height is tall enough to accommodate a 42″ top rail height. For lower top rail heights, cut to length just as you would a wood porch railing post.
There is a recess cut in the top to accept the installation hardware. Some installations will require cutting the top portion to length. If so, you’ll need to cut in a new recess for the hardware. This can be done on-site with a router, or with a chisel and oscillating cutting tool.
Use with all our 3 5/8″ Poly Rail System or 4 9/16″ Poly Rail System.
These porch railing posts are reinforced with an internal 3 1/2″ PVC pipe. They are factory primed and ready for installation and paint.
