All our replacement columns are heavy duty, tightly wrapped with extra thick premium 3/8" Brazilian sisal rope and solid pine plugs, secured with industrial fasteners. The core walls are thicker and stronger than your original columns making for a sturdier, safer support and more scratching surface area.
No hardware is included. Please retain all of your original hardware. If you have a male end on your column (a threaded rod protruding), check to see if it is a rod that can be removed. If it is permanently installed, we advise you to purchase a threaded rod from our hardware page. If your male end protrudes more than 3/4", please notify us of this fact when you order. Our rods stick out that far when completely inserted. Also, our female ends require a bolt or or rod to be at least 3/4" long in order for it to reach and secure itself to our threads.
