60-Inch Down Rod for Ceiling Fans
This 60-inch down rod is designed for ceiling fan installations where standard mounting positions leave the blades too high. It suits rooms with tall ceilings that require a longer drop to achieve proper air circulation. Buyers needing a flush or close-mount installation should look elsewhere, as this rod adds significant length.
Extension Length and Installation Flexibility
The rod provides a fixed 60-inch extension, complementing a system that supports optional stems up to 72 inches in total. It handles installations requiring a substantial drop from the ceiling canopy to the fan motor. Installations needing a drop shorter than the standard stem length or longer than the maximum supported 72 inches cannot use this specific rod.
Black Finish and Compatibility
The rod comes in a black finish identified by part number 899057815, matching compatible Maxim Lighting fan housings. Its threaded ends connect directly to the canopy and motor coupling for a secure fit. California Proposition 65 warnings apply, noting the presence of chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects or reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
Will the 60" down rod work with the Basic-Max ceiling fan's standard stem installation?
Yes, the 60" down rod is compatible with the Basic-Max ceiling fan which supports optional stems up to 72" long for standard stem installation.
How can I verify the 60" down rod is properly installed with my ceiling fan?
The down rod is correctly installed when the fan hangs securely at the desired height with no wobble and all mounting hardware is tightened according to the fan's installation instructions.
Does the FRD60BK down rod package include mounting hardware or must I buy it separately?
The down rod is an accessory for the Basic-Max ceiling fan which installs three ways; mounting hardware typically comes with the fan itself rather than the separate down rod.
