Ordering Specifications for Fittings FITTINGS Fittings, components used within rail systems, can be incorporated into both PTP and OTP stairs. In OTP rail systems, fittings are required to start the rail system, to make directional and height transitions, to carry the rail over intermediate balcony newels, and to terminate the rail when using a half newel. A good check of any Over-the-Post parts list is to make certain that a fitting is ordered for each newel, including half newels, in the stair. NOTE: WM Coffman fittings are shipped with all necessary rail bolts, 1" tapered rail plugs, templates, and full instructions to provide a quick, accurate, and professional installation. FITTING DEFINITIONS FITTING ORIENTATION Fitting orientation is determined from the bottom of the stair looking up. All fittings in the photo to the right are right-hand. GOOSENECK FITTINGS Gooseneck fittings are used to accommodate transitions in height and/or direction at intermediate and balcony landings. NOTE: It is recommended that a minimum difference of 4" between rake rail height and balcony rail height be kept on all Over-the-Post systems. GOOSENECK FITTING Check local building codes for required height and baluster spacing. ONE-RISE GOOSENECK DESIGNED FOR A 4" DIFFERENCE IN RAKE TO BALCONY HEIGHT BALCONY RAIL HEIGHT EX. 38" ONE-RISE GOOSENECK RAKE RAIL HEIGHT EX. 34" 36 CAP VS. NO CAP All fittings fall into two categories: (1) those designed and manufactured with a cap and (2) those manufactured without a cap. All fittings with caps have a 3/4" diameter hole bored in the under side of the cap to receive the top pin of the Over-the- Post newel. Fittings without caps are designed to carry the baluster line through a transition without the use of a newel. Capped fittings are clearly identified in both the drawings and product descriptions. CAP ONE-RISE VS. TWO-RISE Most goosenecks are offered in both onerise and two-rise versions. The one-rise gooseneck is manufactured with the lower easing attached and is limited to use on stairs where the difference in rake rail height to balcony rail height is 4" (Example: 34" rake rail height to 38" balcony rail height). The corresponding two-rise gooseneck makes the same height and/or directional change as its one-rise counterpart but is shipped with the lower easing unattached. This versatile two-piece design allows the installer to trim or extend the straight section of the gooseneck to a height that will work in any situation. Two-rise goosenecks work in applications where the difference in rake rail height is less than 4" (Example: 34-1/2" to 38"), greater than 4" (Example: 34" to 42"), or unknown at the time of ordering.

This elegant, flowing look is achieved by combining the over easing with a transitional fitting such as a tandem cap. 90° UP EASING 90° up easings are used to make a horizontal to vertical 90° transition in a rail system. S-SERIES FITTINGS WM Coffman’s S-Series fittings accommodate the continuous rail codes on partial-open stairs. Specify Right- Hand or Left-Hand (from the bottom of the stair looking up).

This fitting is used in conjunction with an opening cap (Example C-7019) or a gooseneck incorporating an opening cap (Example C-7097), to accomodate nonstandard angle changes. C-7086 TWO-RISE GOOSENECK WITH CAP C-7011 LEVEL QUARTERTURN NO CAP COMBINING FITTINGS Standard fittings will sometimes have to be site-assembled to complete a height and/or directional transition. Basically all stair applications can be satisfied using a combination of currently available WM Coffman fittings. In the example shown of a 180° turn at balcony, you will need a two-rise gooseneck with cap that turns right 90° to sit on top of the newel along with a level quarterturn without a cap to complete the 180° turn. 2nd FLOOR C-7289 C-7089 With Tandem Cap C-7271 C-7071 Left Hand No Cap C-7276 C-7076 Right Hand 2nd FLOOR NO NEWEL SQUARE TOP NEWEL STANDARD VOLUTE (C-7035) FOR 34" RAKE RAIL HEIGHT C-7299 C-7099 No Cap ASCENDING VOLUTE C-7033 FOR SAME 34" RAKE RAIL HEIGHT ASCENDING VOLUTES WM Coffman’s ascending volutes (C-7X33, C-7X38) are designed to begin their ascent much sooner than their standard counterparts, allowing for the use of a shorter newel and shorter balusters on top of the bullnose starting step. This lower, more proportional beginning of an Over-the-Post system, coupled with the graceful, flowing transition from the volute to the rail, makes the ascending volute an attractive addition to any stair.
