Struggling to get your WAC ceiling fan mounted at the perfect height? The 60-inch matte black downrod is your solution for achieving optimal airflow and aesthetic appeal in any room with higher ceilings. Whether you're installing a fan in a great room, kitchen, or entryway with vaulted ceilings, this downrod provides the length you need to position your fan exactly where it works best.
WAC Lighting designed these downrods specifically for their ceiling fans, ensuring a perfect fit and safe operation. With a 3/4-inch outer diameter and precision threading on the motor side, this downrod connects securely to your fan motor and ceiling bracket. The matte black finish seamlessly blends with modern fan designs, creating a cohesive look that doesn't distract from your fan's visual appeal. Using a WAC-approved downrod is crucial for safety, as non-compatible components can lead to damage or injury during operation.
This 60-inch downrod offers incredible flexibility for your installation needs. If your ceiling requires even greater extension, you can join multiple downrods using a downrod coupler (sold separately) to create custom lengths up to 72 inches or more. Plus, if you need a shorter length, you can easily field-shorten this downrod by cutting the unthreaded end—perfect when you need something between standard sizes. This adaptability makes it a practical choice for various ceiling heights and installation scenarios.
Sixty inches is the perfect solution for rooms with 10-12 foot ceilings where you want your fan to hang lower for better air circulation. This length creates that ideal balance between aesthetics and function—high enough to avoid headroom issues but close enough to effectively move air throughout the space. The matte black finish coordinates beautifully with contemporary, industrial, and minimalist interior design styles, making it a versatile choice for various home decor themes.
Installing your 60-inch matte black downrod is straightforward with the included threading, which matches perfectly with WAC fan motors. The sturdy construction ensures your fan remains securely mounted for years of reliable performance. When installing, make sure to tighten all connections properly and check the balance of your fan after installation to prevent wobble. Regular maintenance is minimal—simply dust the downrod occasionally and check that all connections remain secure over time.
Whether you're replacing an existing downrod or installing a new fan, this 60-inch matte black option provides the length, durability, and style you need to complete your ceiling fan project perfectly. The matte black finish adds a touch of sophistication while remaining practical and easy to maintain in any home environment.
