Abstract: Frustrumed baluster connector for rail banister, including: a base, for adapting the connector to a rail; a body, for frictionally fitting a baluster, rigidly supported to said base; a frustrum, for releasably engaging the baluster to the rail, progressively conformed to said body; and a hole, for receiving a screw, centrally set to said frustrum, centrally set to said body, and centrally counterbored to said base. The frustrum enables frustrumly engaging the connector to a corresponding baluster in a frustrumly engaged position before pressure is applied to put the baluster into a final assembly position.
