Cord-and-Tassel Rings: Wood or Aluminum Pole, Same Outside Diameter

Two cord-and-tassel rings can share the same listed outside diameter without being the same replacement part. For these FORTISVEX options, the first distinction is the intended pole material: Z050484 is listed for wood poles, while Z050485 is listed for aluminum poles. Both have a listed outside ring diameter of 15/16 inch.

If you are replacing a missing ring, start with the pole and its existing attachment, not just the size of the circular opening. The outside ring measurement describes the ring itself. It is not a statement that either part fits a pole measuring 15/16 inch across.

Compare the two listed parts

What to check at the attachment

The two linked product listings show different attachment ends. Use those views to compare the replacement with the part already on your pole, if it is still available. A photograph can help you recognize a different shape, but it does not establish thread pitch, a required hole size or a complete installation procedure.

The wood and aluminum descriptions identify the intended pole material. They should not be read as a statement about the metal used to make the ring. Neither the shared measurement nor the similar appearance establishes a load rating or compatibility with every pole of that material.

Before choosing a replacement

• Identify whether the existing pole is wood or aluminum.
• Record the pole model and the ring part number, if available.
• Compare the existing attachment with the corresponding product photograph. Keep the old component or a clear photograph for reference.
• If the attachment differs or its specifications are unknown, resolve that difference before ordering rather than guessing from the outside ring diameter.

Keep the ring choice separate from the decorative cord choice. You can browse cords and tassels for the display, but a cord's appearance or dimensions do not establish that a particular ring will attach correctly to your pole.
