A 48-inch steel downrod in a Rubi finish, designed to lower your Matthews Gerbar ceiling fan to the perfect height for dramatic ceilings.

Best for

• Great rooms and two-story foyers with ceilings 12 ft or higher, where a standard downrod leaves the fan too high for effective airflow.
• Sloped ceilings, thanks to its sloped ceiling compatibility.
• Covered or uncovered outdoor spaces, as it is rated for interior/exterior wet locations.
• Matching other Matthews Gerbar fans with the Rubi finish for a cohesive look.

Not ideal for

• Rooms with standard 8-9 ft ceilings, where a 48-inch downrod would place the fan too low.
• Installations requiring a threaded downrod, as this model is non-threaded.

Sizing and fit

This downrod measures 0.75 inches in diameter and 48 inches in length. It is field cuttable, allowing you to adjust the length to suit your ceiling height. The double-pinned design ensures a secure connection to your fan.
