25 Foot Above Grade | 28 Foot Total Height Fiberglass Flag Pole | 6 Inch Diameter | External Halyard | In Ground | Rated for 180 MPH

Product Overview

This fiberglass flag pole is designed for permanent in-ground installation at commercial, municipal, and institutional sites. The pole stands 25 feet above grade with a total length of 28 feet, providing a visible and durable solution for flag display. The 6-inch ground-level diameter and 75-pound weight support stable mounting in a range of exterior environments.

Standard configuration includes an external halyard system, gold ball finial, 16-inch flash collar, and all required fittings for flag attachment. The pole is supplied with a 3-foot ground sleeve for direct burial installation. Typical use cases include commercial property entrances, municipal buildings, and facility grounds where a 25-foot above-grade flag pole is appropriate.

Core Performance and Output

This pole is engineered for structural performance in exposed outdoor conditions. The fiberglass construction provides a 180 mph wind rating (unflagged), supporting reliable operation in high-wind regions and open sites. The 6-inch diameter at ground level and 3-inch tip diameter balance rigidity with manageable weight for installation and long-term use.

EPA (Effective Projected Area) and wind load capacity are suitable for standard 5 x 8 foot flags. Excessive flag size or multiple flags may reduce wind rating and should be evaluated based on site conditions. The pole?s structural integrity is maintained when installed with the supplied 3-foot ground sleeve and proper backfill.

Adjustability and Control Options

The external halyard system uses a #10 (5/16 inch) rope for flag raising and lowering. The included 8-inch aluminum cleat provides secure halyard tie-off at a comfortable working height. The gold ball finial and flash collar are standard for visual finish and weather protection at the base.

No tilt, telescoping, or internal halyard options are included. Flag position is adjusted manually via the halyard. Custom pole colors are available by request to match site requirements.

Longevity and Reliability

The fiberglass material is non-corrosive and resists weathering, making it suitable for long-term outdoor exposure. The pole is not subject to rust or galvanic corrosion, even in coastal or high-humidity environments. UV-resistant finish maintains appearance and structural integrity over time.

Routine inspection of halyard, cleat, and flag attachment hardware is recommended. The pole carries a 15-year warranty covering structural performance under normal use and installation conditions.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The pole is constructed from high-strength fiberglass with a smooth, UV-stable finish. Standard color is white, with custom colors available. The 6-inch ground-level diameter and 3-inch tip diameter provide a tapered profile for both aesthetics and wind performance.

Supplied hardware includes a 5-inch gold ball, 16-inch flash collar, external halyard, and all necessary fittings for flag mounting. The 3-foot ground sleeve (8-inch inside diameter) is designed for direct burial and stable anchoring in concrete or compacted soil.

Where This Product Fits Best

This flag pole is suited for exterior environments requiring a permanent, mid-height flag display with high wind resistance. Typical installations include:

• flag display
• commercial property flag mounting
• municipal flag installation
• facility flag display
• school flag installation
• government building flag display
• stadium flag display
• corporate facility flag display

The fiberglass construction is appropriate for both inland and coastal sites, including areas with corrosive atmospheres or frequent high winds. The pole?s size and wind rating make it suitable for most commercial and institutional grounds where a 25-foot above-grade flag pole is standard.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Installation requires excavation for the 3-foot ground sleeve and proper backfill with concrete or compacted aggregate. The pole is set directly into the sleeve and secured for vertical alignment. All hardware is included for immediate flag mounting after installation.

Routine maintenance is limited to periodic inspection of the halyard, cleat, and flag attachment points. The fiberglass surface does not require painting or rust protection. In areas with frequent storms or high winds, flags should be removed during severe weather to maintain wind rating and pole longevity.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting height is 25 feet above grade, with the pole spaced for clear visibility from roadways, entrances, or facility perimeters. Standard flag size is 5 x 8 feet, with the halyard system allowing for single-flag operation. Spacing between multiple poles on a site is determined by visual requirements and site layout.

Higher wind regions may require more frequent flag removal or inspection. Using larger or multiple flags will increase wind load and may require engineering review. The pole?s output is structural, not electrical, and is matched to standard commercial and municipal flag display needs.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

The pole is rated for 180 mph wind loads (unflagged) and is constructed from non-conductive, non-corrosive fiberglass. All hardware is designed for exterior use and long-term durability. The pole includes a 15-year warranty covering structural integrity and material performance.

No electrical or lighting certifications apply. The product is suitable for use in public, commercial, and institutional environments where safety and reliability are required for flag display.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the maximum flag size recommended for this pole?

A: The standard flag size is 5 x 8 feet. Larger flags may exceed wind load ratings and are not recommended without engineering review.

Q: How deep does the ground sleeve need to be installed?

A: The supplied ground sleeve is 3 feet long and should be fully embedded below grade for proper anchoring.

Q: Can this pole be installed in coastal or corrosive environments?

A: Yes, the fiberglass construction is non-corrosive and suitable for coastal, high-humidity, or chemically aggressive sites.

Q: Is the halyard system internal or external?

A: This pole uses an external halyard system with a #10 (5/16 inch) rope and 8-inch aluminum cleat.

Q: What is the wind rating with a flag attached?

A: The 180 mph wind rating applies to the unflagged pole. Wind rating with a flag will be lower and depends on flag size and local conditions.

Q: How should I plan spacing if installing multiple flag poles?

A: Spacing is typically determined by site layout and visual requirements. Allow sufficient distance for flag clearance and visibility, usually 10?20 feet between poles.
