Factors To Identify During The Purchase Of Colossal Flagpoles

By Diane Fox


The largest and tallest metal flagpoles can be placed in specified sites by individuals through purchase and mounting of colossal flagpoles. Such kinds of poles are set to meet the architectural institute standards in America. Some of these standards include safety precautions to handle the wind speed within an area and measures to handle the load.

The poles are made of a metal type known as the A-36 carbon steel which has a high yield point that magnifies its strength. This metal is suitable in construction of bridges and buildings, thus making it appropriate for the rods too. A seamless steel concentric is used to join the sections of metal resulting to a well-uniformed outlook.

Sandblasting together with the coating of metal using epoxy primer chemical is the next process once the joining is complete. Once that is done, the pole is coated with a gloss enamel referred to as aliphatic urethane. The final result is a good gloss effect and color retention on the pole. Once dry, the products are then shipped to the locations where the customers have ordered them to be taken to.

The poles vary in different sizes based on the customers need right from one hundred feet rising the ladder to four hundred feet. The size of diameter of the rods increases both at the bottom and top of pole as the height of the same increases. Poles with large measurements of heights and diameters can handle larger sizes of flags.

One must consider the highest speed of wind, within the area where the flagpole is to be set. Those with heights of up to one hundred and fifty feet, can handle a speed of one hundred and thirty miles per hour. The poles with heights above that, need to be designed specifically to handle the speed in the location and furthermore the type of location whether it is a coastal region, city or countryside.

In addition, one has to consider the size of flag to be placed on rod before getting a specific height of same. A thirty by fifty flag can go along well with poles that range between one hundred and one hundred and twenty feet in height. A sixty by a hundred banner can be handled using a two hundred and three hundred feet pole. By using the right size of flag, damage on the pole is avoided and also other forms of injury.

In addition to having long lasting rods, stores have improved their quality by including night lighting on the flags. In order to handle the varying needs of clients several lighting solutions have been provided including solar lighting. These solutions not only create unique appearance at a customer friendly rate but also ensure conservation of the environment.

When considering a store from where to purchase a pole, one has to look at some of these benefits that should come along with the same. These include a fair pricing and a guarantee of the products which is mostly in form of a warranty. More so, the store should be able to offer a free shipping along with services from the experts whenever necessary.
