DekPro 6 Degree Baluster Connectors for Ramps
What It Is
DekPro 6 Degree Baluster Connectors for Ramps are angled baluster connector pieces designed to securely attach 3/4″ diameter round or square aluminum balusters to deck rails that are not perfectly level — specifically for ramp applications with a gentle angle. These connectors allow balusters to sit straight and aligned even when the railing itself is tilted slightly (approximately 6° typical on accessible ramps).
Why “6 Degree” Matters
Most baluster connectors and inserts are made for level (horizontal) or stair (steeper angled) rail runs. For longer ramp installations — such as ADA-accessible ramps or gently sloped rail runs — the angle isn’t steep enough for a stair connector but isn’t flat either. These 6 degree connectors are slightly angled to match that gentle slope, keeping your balusters:
- Vertical (upright) — not tilted awkwardly relative to the deck surface
- Evenly spaced and aligned
- Securely fastened with minimal gap or mis-alignment
This gives a neater, safer, and code-compliant railing finish on sloped runs where standard level connectors would sit incorrectly.
Key Features
Designed for Ramps
- Angled at 6° to align square or round balusters on gently sloped ramps — not flat deck runs and not steep stairs.
Hidden Connection
- Connectors are hidden inside the baluster once installed: you screw them to the top and bottom rails, then slide the baluster down over them so the hardware is not visible.
Includes Hardware
- Each pack includes 20 connectors plus 1-1/2″ stainless steel screws for mounting to wood or composite rails. Each baluster requires two connectors (top and bottom).
Works with Round or Square Balusters
- Compatible with most 3/4″ aluminum balusters (round or square) used in DekPro systems and many universal railing assemblies.
Outdoor-Ready Finish
Available in common railing finishes like Black, Bronze, and White to match balusters and railing hardware.
