Description
An 18-inch ceiling fan downrod in brushed nickel steel for lowering a fan to the right height in bedrooms, living rooms, and other standard-ceiling spaces.
This downrod is part of Millennium Lighting's Ceiling Fan Downrods collection, built to help you fit a ceiling fan to your room instead of settling for the short stub that ships in the box. The brushed nickel finish has a soft, satin sheen that pairs cleanly with nickel and chrome fan bodies, and the steel construction keeps the rod rigid so the fan spins without wobble.
Best for
- Bedrooms and living rooms with ceilings around 10-11 ft where the fan needs to drop closer to the seating area
- Dining rooms and kitchens where a fan is mounted over a table or island and needs more clearance
- Replacing a missing or bent downrod on an existing brushed nickel fan
- Sloped ceilings - this downrod is slope compatible when paired with the correct canopy
Not ideal for
- Very high or vaulted ceilings where an 18-inch drop is not enough - you will need a longer downrod
- Fans with a non-standard or proprietary mounting system that does not accept a 0.5-inch diameter downrod
- Outdoor or wet-exposed locations - this rod is damp rated, not wet rated
Style and finish
Brushed nickel is a traditional, transitional finish with a low-gloss satin look. It reads slightly warm compared to polished chrome and blends well with both modern and traditional fan designs. The linear steel rod is simple and unobtrusive, so it disappears into the ceiling rather than drawing attention.
Materials and care
Constructed from steel with a brushed nickel finish. Wipe with a soft dry cloth to remove dust; avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that can dull the finish. Care instructions not specified by manufacturer beyond routine dusting.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions are 18 in long x 0.5 in wide x 0.5 in high, with a 0.5-inch diameter that fits standard fan downrod couplers. Item weight is approximately 0.605 lbs. Use this 18-inch rod when you need to lower a fan about a foot and a half below the ceiling - a common choice for 10-11 ft ceilings in bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, and kitchens.
