30 Foot Above Ground | 33 Foot Total Height Fiberglass Flag Pole | 6.75 Inch Base Diameter | Internal Halyard | In Ground | Rated for 180 MPH

Product Overview

This 30 foot above ground fiberglass flag pole is designed for permanent in-ground installation at commercial, municipal, and institutional sites. The pole features a 33 foot total length, 6.75 inch base diameter, and a 3 inch tip diameter, supporting standard flag sizes up to 5 x 8 feet. The internal halyard system, stationary truck, and included fittings provide a secure, tamper-resistant flag display suitable for high-visibility locations.

With a 180 mph wind rating (unflagged) and a 15-year warranty, this pole is built for long-term use in demanding outdoor environments. Typical installations include government buildings, schools, corporate campuses, and stadiums where structural reliability and low maintenance are required.

Core Performance and Output

This fiberglass flag pole is engineered for structural performance in exposed outdoor settings. The 180 mph wind rating (unflagged) supports reliable operation in hurricane-prone regions and open sites. The 6.75 inch base diameter and 107 lb weight provide stability for flags up to 5 x 8 feet, with a 3 foot ground sleeve for secure anchoring.

Fiberglass construction offers non-conductivity and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for coastal or chemically aggressive environments. The pole?s structural capacity is optimized for single-flag display; excessive flag size or multiple flags may reduce wind load tolerance. Installation at heights above 30 feet should account for increased wind exposure and local code requirements.

Adjustability and Control Options

The internal halyard system uses a #10 (5/16 inch) rope, routed inside the pole for security and reduced tampering. The stationary truck and gold ball top are included, with a nylon cleat and brass snaps for flag attachment. The flash collar provides a finished appearance at grade.

Flag raising and lowering is performed manually via the internal halyard. No automated or remote control options are provided. The pole is compatible with standard flag sizes; custom halyard or cleat configurations are not supported as standard.

Longevity and Reliability

The fiberglass construction resists corrosion, UV degradation, and weathering, supporting long service life in harsh climates. The 15-year warranty covers structural integrity and material performance under normal use. Internal halyard components are protected from environmental exposure, reducing maintenance frequency.

Routine inspection of the halyard, cleat, and flag attachment hardware is recommended to maintain reliable operation. The pole?s non-conductive properties reduce lightning risk compared to metal alternatives, but grounding is still advised per local code.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

This pole is manufactured from high-strength fiberglass with a white gelcoat finish; custom colors are available. The 33 foot total length provides 30 feet above grade when installed with the included 3 foot ground sleeve. The 6 inch gold ball top, 16 inch flash collar, and brass snaps with vinyl covers are included as standard fittings.

The pole weighs 107 lbs and is designed for in-ground mounting only. The 8 inch inside diameter ground sleeve ensures proper fit and stability. The pole?s smooth surface and integrated fittings support a clean, professional appearance in high-profile settings.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fiberglass flag pole is intended for permanent outdoor flag display at sites requiring high wind resistance, low maintenance, and a tamper-resistant halyard system. 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

Fiberglass construction is suitable for coastal, urban, and institutional environments where corrosion resistance and non-conductivity are required. The pole?s wind rating and structural design support reliable use in exposed or high-traffic locations.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Installation requires excavation for the 3 foot ground sleeve and proper backfilling for stability. The pole is set in the sleeve and leveled before final securing. All fittings are included for immediate flag installation after mounting.

Routine maintenance is limited to periodic inspection of the halyard, cleat, and flag hardware. The gelcoat finish can be cleaned with mild detergent as needed. Replacement of halyard or hardware may be required over time, depending on site conditions and flag change frequency.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

This flag pole is typically installed at heights of 30 feet above grade, spaced individually or in small groups depending on site requirements. Common layouts include single poles at building entrances, grouped displays at civic centers, or perimeter installations at stadiums and campuses.

Spacing between poles is determined by flag size, site lines, and visual impact. Using larger flags or multiple flags on a single pole may require increased maintenance and can reduce wind load tolerance.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fiberglass flag pole is rated for 180 mph wind loads (unflagged) and includes a 15-year warranty. All fittings are non-corrosive and designed for outdoor use. The pole is non-conductive and suitable for installation near electrical infrastructure when installed per code.

Routine safety checks should include inspection of the halyard, cleat, and flag attachment points. The pole?s structural and material performance is supported by manufacturer warranty for the stated period.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the maximum flag size supported by this pole?

A: The standard flag size for this pole is 5 x 8 feet. Larger flags are not recommended due to wind load limits.

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

A: Yes, the fiberglass construction and non-corrosive fittings are suitable for coastal and chemically aggressive locations.

Q: Is the halyard system tamper-resistant?

A: The internal halyard system reduces tampering and unauthorized access compared to external halyard designs.

Q: What is the recommended installation method?

A: The pole is designed for in-ground installation using the included 3 foot ground sleeve. Proper backfilling and leveling are required for stability.

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

A: Inspection intervals depend on site conditions and flag change frequency, but annual checks are typical for most installations.

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

A: Spacing is typically based on flag size and visual requirements. Allow sufficient distance to prevent flag interference and maintain clear sight lines.
