Connections That Challenge Welded Joints In Rigidity
This is what makes TUFRAIL aluminum handrail unique. Stainless steel bolts and expanding internal tines combine to make this the most rigid connection available in a component rail.

TUFRAIL aluminum railing does not utilize pop-rivets, sheet metal screws or adhesives. This allows complete shop assembly of the railing using our precision equipment and highly skilled technicians. The end result is an aesthetically pleasing rail which is extremely rigid and easy to install.
