An 18-inch downrod for ceiling fans, finished in driftwood stainless steel, for mounting fans on sloped or high ceilings.
This downrod extends your ceiling fan's drop to 18 inches, letting you position the fan at the ideal height for rooms with tall or angled ceilings. The driftwood finish over stainless steel offers a weathered, coastal-inspired look that resists corrosion and complements natural and rustic interiors.
Best for
- Rooms with ceilings 9 feet or higher where the fan needs extra drop to reach optimal airflow height
- Sloped or vaulted ceilings when paired with an angled-mount adapter
- Covered outdoor areas, porches, or patios - rated for wet locations
- Replacing a shorter downrod to lower the fan for better air circulation in large rooms
Not ideal for
- Rooms with standard 8-foot ceilings where a flush mount or shorter downrod is needed to maintain safe clearance
- Ceiling fans that do not support downrod mounting (check your fan's manual)
Style and finish
The driftwood finish mimics the weathered gray-brown tone of sun-bleached wood, adding a coastal or rustic touch to your ceiling fan. The stainless steel base ensures strength and resistance to rust, making it suitable for humid or outdoor environments.
