30 Foot Fiberglass Flag Pole | 6.5 Inch Base Diameter | External Halyard | Anchor Base | Rated for 125 MPH

Product Overview

This is a 30-foot fiberglass flag pole with external halyard design, anchor base mounting, and a 125 mph wind rating in unflagged condition. The pole is white, round tapered, with a 6.5-inch outer diameter at ground level tapering to 3 inches at the tip. Total weight is 78 pounds.

The pole ships with fittings for external ropes, a stationary truck, 6-inch gold ball top, one set of brass snaps with white vinyl covers, and an 8.5-inch nylon cleat. The standard flag size for this pole is 5 x 8 feet. Anchor bolts and base cover are sold separately.

Where This Product Fits Best

This pole is built for permanent exterior installations where corrosion resistance and wind performance matter. Fiberglass does not rust or conduct electricity, which makes it appropriate for coastal environments, industrial sites, and locations where metal poles would degrade over time or pose grounding concerns.

The 125 mph unflagged wind rating supports installations in high-wind regions. Facilities in hurricane zones, exposed commercial properties, or open sites with sustained wind exposure should verify local code requirements against this rating. The anchor base installation method requires a concrete foundation with embedded anchor bolts.

Performance and Functional Considerations

The external halyard system uses a #10 (5/16-inch) rope, which is accessible from ground level for raising and lowering the flag. This eliminates the need for internal winch access or specialized equipment during flag changes. The nylon cleat secures the halyard when not in use.

The 125 mph wind rating applies to the unflagged pole. When a flag is attached, wind load increases and the effective wind resistance of the installation decreases. Flag size and wind conditions at the site should be evaluated together when determining suitability.

Installation and Long-Term Use

This pole mounts to an anchor base, which requires a poured concrete foundation with embedded anchor bolts. The anchor bolts required are 24 inches in length with 3/4-inch diameter, 2.75-inch projection, and a bolt circle of 9 to 11 inches. The base plate measures 10.24 x 10.24 inches. Anchor bolts and base cover are not included.

Fiberglass construction requires no painting or rust treatment over the life of the pole. The white finish is factory-applied. Periodic inspection of hardware, halyard condition, and base hardware torque is standard maintenance practice for any permanent flag pole installation.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Once installed, the external halyard allows ground-level flag changes without tools or ladder access. The brass snaps with vinyl covers attach directly to the flag grommets and clip onto the halyard. Raising and lowering is done by hand, and the cleat holds the rope in position.

Fiberglass poles are often selected for sites where electrical conductivity is a concern or where salt air, chemical exposure, or moisture would cause steel or aluminum poles to corrode. The 78-pound weight simplifies handling during installation compared to heavier metal alternatives of similar height.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fiberglass flag pole carries a 15-year warranty. The 125 mph wind rating applies to the unflagged condition. Site-specific wind exposure, flag size, and local building codes should be reviewed prior to installation.

Fiberglass is non-conductive, which reduces risk in locations where contact with overhead power lines or lightning grounding is a concern. This does not eliminate the need for proper site evaluation and code-compliant installation.
