Stainless Steel Balustrade Post


Here, a bracket fitting has been TIG welded to a Stainless steel tube to form the top of a balustrade post which was to be cut to fit over a wooden staircase stringer. After welding, the join was ground & sanded down so that it was invisible & the balustrade looked like one solid piece.

At the bottom end of the stringer post, a small piece of 2mm thick stainless steel sheet was welded across the cut end so that it would be closed off when fitted to the stringer. Very easy to burn through when welding the corners! & this was the last bit to do on a fairly expensive (by now) post.






























This is the finished post fixed in position on the staircase stringer

  1. At the base end of the stringer post, a little bit of 2mm thick stainless steel sheet was welded over the cut close with the goal that it might be cut off when fitted to the stringer. Exceptionally simplex through stainless steel handrail through when welding the corners! & this was the keep going spot to do on a reasonably exorbitant (by now) post.
