A 48-inch brass ceiling fan downrod for extending fan drop in rooms with very high or sloped ceilings.
This steel downrod from Millennium Lighting's Ceiling Fan Downrods collection adds 48 inches of length between your fan and the ceiling, putting airflow back where it belongs in tall spaces. The brass finish pairs naturally with traditional and transitional fans, and the 0.5-inch diameter fits standard fan couplers. Slope-compatible hardware is included, so vaulted and cathedral ceilings are no problem.
Best for
- Great rooms and two-story living spaces with ceilings 14 ft or higher that need a fan dropped into the occupied zone
- Bedrooms with vaulted or sloped ceilings where a standard downrod leaves the fan too high
- Dining rooms and kitchens with tall ceilings where you want the fan at a comfortable, effective height
- Matching a brass-finish fan to an existing brass or warm-metal ceiling canopy
Not ideal for
- Standard 8-9 ft ceilings - a 48-inch downrod will hang the fan too low for safe clearance
- Fans with a non-standard coupler diameter - this rod is 0.5 in wide
- Outdoor or wet-exposed installations beyond a damp-rated covered area
Sizing and fit
Measures 48 in long with a 0.5 in diameter and weighs 2.71 lbs. For most rooms, the fan should hang 8-9 ft above the floor; add the downrod length to your fan's existing drop to check clearance. Slope-compatible, so it works on angled ceilings.
