{"product_id":"1-2-in-square-baluster-shoe-rake-ps02","title":"1\/2 in. Square Baluster Shoe, Rake","description":"\u003cp\u003eA baluster shoe is the small collar that conceals the joint where a baluster meets the tread, shoe rail or handrail. It slips over the square baluster stock and covers the hole, cut or gap at the connection, giving the transition a finished edge without additional trim work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the rake version, shaped for the angled runs of a stair rather than a level balcony section. The seat is cut on the pitch so the shoe sits flat against a sloped shoe rail or handrail while the baluster stays plumb. Most shoes are fastened with a small set screw or pin through the collar, or glued and pinned in place, and are installed before the baluster is finally secured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSized for 1\/2 in. square baluster stock and sold individually, so counts can be matched to the baluster layout for a given stair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSized to fit 1\/2 in. square baluster stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRake profile, seated on the pitch for angled stair runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConceals the joint and any drilled or cut opening where the baluster lands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollar design slips over the baluster before final fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecured with a set screw, pin or adhesive depending on the assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold each, allowing counts to match the baluster spacing of the run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinishing the base of square balusters at the tread or shoe rail on a stair rake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovering baluster holes in an angled handrail on the underside of the rail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrimming out iron or wood baluster installations on straight stair runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRepair and replacement work where an existing shoe is damaged or missing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetrofitting balusters into an existing shoe rail where the cut needs concealment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Baluster shoe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubtype:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rake (angled)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBaluster Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/2 in. square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As:\u003c\/strong\u003e Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stair parts and railing components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"product-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/2\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"ARCH Building Supply","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55048740733267,"sku":"PS02","price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/7743\/4195\/files\/1-2-in-square-baluster-shoe-rake-ps02.webp?v=1790259888","url":"https:\/\/arch-9365.myshopify.com\/zh\/products\/1-2-in-square-baluster-shoe-rake-ps02","provider":"ARCH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
