Spindle
A spindle is another word for a baluster. It is the small piece that attaches to the underside of a handrail. Often, a spindle is intended to refer to a baluster for an interior railing, but this is not a hard and fast rule. Spindles add a decorative touch to a railing, as well as some extra support. Most importantly, they keep children and objects from sliding under the rail and falling over the side of a stairway.
