Zipbolt 14.100 Super UT Newel Post Fastener Bulk Pack — Quick and Easy Wrench-Free Installation of Staircase Newel Posts, Anchors Post Directly to Wood or Concrete Floor

Nice and snug secure posts. Somewhat difficult screwing into the base due to small predrilled hole but worth it for results.

These are an absolute game changer when installing newel posts to the floor. This was my first attempt at stair railings and without this system I'd have probably struggled. You tube is full of instructional videos on whichever Zipbolt you purchase and believe me they make every connector for the entire job. I'll never use any other system, if I ever do another staircase again.. I highly recommend these..

This part made installing newel posts almost trivial, provided that the framing underneath the newel was done correctly. I've used other systems for installing newel posts, but this is the easiest I've used so far and makes a very solid connection. This will now be the part I use for installing newel posts going forward.

Great product, easily bolts newel posts to floor. A little pricey but pays for itself in ease of use.

The thing I figured out on these is that while the video shows these being zipped in with a drill driver... Start them by hand, then use a drill driver. I stripped 2 of these out just using the drill driver. Once they were started I used my impact driver and they are solid!

These came with the newer hex head which would make installing them a breeze with an impact driver. The only drawback is there was no impact socket in the package. I had no issue installing them with a large adjustable wrench, it just took a bit longer. Don’t forget to lube the threads before screwing then in (I used pipe dope, some videos I watched recommended wax).

Worked perfect fo my back porch rebuild.

Made life easy when installing the 8 newel post. No wrench needed and when it came to leveling and pluming the post the cam assembly made it quick. I bet it cut the installation time in half if not more. Dave Fisher FB: One Room Schoolhouse Renovation

Takes some patience and good skills to install but after, you get a solid newel post

Great product did the job of securing a stand alone newel post. Easy to use but does require a decent size wrench to tighten it down.

We purchased 6 of these and the first 5 worked great. The 6th one the half moon attachment is not tightening and I am not sure how to get a hold of the seller to get a replacement. I can't return the whole thing as it is already installed into my staircase...
