Table pedestals and legs

Which material is best for boat table legs, stainless steel or aluminum?

AISI 316 stainless steel offers greater resistance to marine corrosion, ideal for intensive use and in particularly aggressive environments. Anodized aluminum is lighter and still offers good protection, representing a valid alternative for those seeking a compromise between weight and durability.

How do I choose the right height for table legs?

The ideal height depends on the intended use of the table. For a dining table, a height between 70 and 75 cm is recommended. For a coffee table, a height between 40 and 50 cm is more appropriate. Telescopic supports offer the flexibility to adjust the height according to different needs.

Can I install the table legs myself or do I need a professional?

Installing table legs is generally simple and can be done yourself, following the instructions provided. However, if you are installing flush-mounted bases or more complex systems, it is advisable to contact a professional to avoid damage to the boat's structure.

What products should I use to clean stainless steel without damaging it?

For cleaning stainless steel, it is recommended to use specific nautical detergents, avoiding aggressive or abrasive products that could scratch the surface. A soft cloth and fresh water are sufficient for ordinary cleaning. For persistent stains, specific stainless steel polishes can be used.
