30 Foot Fiberglass Flag Pole | 6.75 Inch Base Diameter | External Halyard | In Ground | Rated for 125 MPH

Product Overview

This 30-foot fiberglass flag pole is designed for in-ground installation at commercial, municipal, and institutional sites requiring reliable flag display. The pole features a 6.75-inch base diameter, external halyard system, and a white finish. It is engineered for direct burial with a 3-foot ground sleeve and includes all standard fittings for flag operation.

Rated for 125 mph wind loads (unflagged), this pole is suitable for exposed locations where structural integrity is critical. Typical installations include facility entrances, government buildings, and large commercial properties where a 30-foot above-grade height is required for visibility and compliance.

Core Performance and Output

This fiberglass flag pole supports a total height of 33 feet with 30 feet above grade. The 6.75-inch base diameter and 77-pound pole weight provide stability for standard flag sizes up to 5 x 8 feet. The structure is wind rated to 125 mph (unflagged), meeting requirements for most open site installations.

The pole?s fiberglass construction offers non-conductivity and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for coastal or high-humidity environments. The 8-inch inside diameter ground sleeve and 3-foot embedment ensure secure anchoring. Excessive flag size or flagged operation in high winds may reduce wind load capacity.

Adjustability and Control Options

This model uses an external halyard system with a #10 (5/16 inch) rope, nylon cleat, and stationary truck. The external halyard allows for straightforward flag raising and lowering from ground level. The included brass snaps with vinyl covers protect flag grommets and reduce noise during operation.

No internal halyard or locking mechanism is provided. The stationary truck and gold ball top are standard. Adjustments are limited to halyard tension and flag attachment points.

Longevity and Reliability

The fiberglass construction resists corrosion, UV degradation, and weathering. The pole is designed for long-term outdoor exposure with minimal maintenance. The white gelcoat finish maintains appearance and surface integrity over time.

A 15-year warranty covers structural performance under normal use. Routine inspection of halyard, cleat, and flag attachments is recommended to ensure continued reliability.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

This pole is manufactured from high-strength fiberglass with a smooth, white finish. The 6.75-inch base diameter and 3-inch tip diameter provide a tapered profile for wind resistance and aesthetics. The pole weighs 77 pounds, allowing for manageable handling during installation.

Included hardware: 8.5-inch nylon cleat, 16-inch flash collar, 6-inch gold ball top, stationary truck, and ground sleeve. The standard flag size is 5 x 8 feet. All fittings are designed for compatibility with commercial and institutional flag display requirements.

Where This Product Fits Best

This 30-foot fiberglass flag pole is suited for environments requiring durable, corrosion-resistant flag display with a prominent above-grade height. It is commonly installed at:

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

The fiberglass material is appropriate for coastal, humid, or corrosive environments. The 125 mph wind rating supports use in exposed or open locations. In-ground direct burial installation is required.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Installation requires excavation for the 3-foot ground sleeve and proper backfilling for stability. The pole?s weight and tapered design allow for manual handling with standard equipment. All hardware is included for external halyard operation and flag attachment.

Routine maintenance includes checking halyard condition, cleat security, and flag hardware. The fiberglass surface requires only periodic cleaning. The pole is not designed for climbing or for use with oversized flags in high wind conditions.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting height is 30 feet above grade, with a total pole length of 33 feet including the ground sleeve. Standard flag size is 5 x 8 feet. Poles are spaced based on site layout and visibility requirements, often at facility entrances or prominent locations.

Spacing and placement may be adjusted for multiple flag displays or to avoid obstructions. Using larger flags or operating in flagged conditions during high winds may require additional review of wind load limits.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This flag pole is wind rated to 125 mph (unflagged) and constructed from non-conductive fiberglass for electrical safety. All included hardware is compatible with commercial and institutional flag display standards.

The product carries a 15-year warranty covering structural integrity and material performance under normal use. No additional certifications are specified.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

A: The standard flag size for this pole is 5 x 8 feet.

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

A: Yes, the fiberglass construction is suitable for coastal and corrosive environments.

Q: What is the wind rating for this flag pole?

A: The pole is rated for 125 mph wind loads when unflagged.

Q: Is the halyard system internal or external?

A: This model uses an external halyard system.

Q: What is the required embedment depth for installation?

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

Q: How often should the halyard and hardware be inspected?

A: Routine inspection is recommended at least annually or after severe weather events.

Q: Can this pole be used for multiple flag displays?

A: This model is designed for single flag display; additional hardware would be required for multiple flags.

Q: What is the typical spacing between flag poles at a facility entrance?

A: Spacing varies by site, but 20 to 30 feet between poles is common for visual separation and flag clearance.

Application Questions and Clarification

Q: Is this pole suitable for stadium flag display applications?

A: Yes, this pole is commonly used for stadium flag display where a 30-foot above-grade height is required.

Q: Can this pole be used for government building flag installations?

A: Yes, it is appropriate for government building flag display and meets typical height and durability requirements.

Q: Is the pole appropriate for school flag installations?

A: Yes, this model is suitable for school flag installations and similar institutional sites.

Q: Does the wind rating apply when a flag is flying?

A: The 125 mph wind rating applies when the pole is unflagged; flying a flag in high winds reduces the wind load capacity.
