Yes were in the business of
making and selling
flagpoles. We also provide
repair parts to the flagpole
industry as well as flags.
There are a few simple tips
that can save you hundreds
of dollars. There a few
simple things you can do to
make a really nice flagpole
if you have a little bit of
skill. If you not in the
market for a really high end
flagpole that will cost you
several hundred dollars and
a hundred or two to ship it
to you, then let us sell you
a few simple parts and give
you a tip or two so you can

Here is what you could
expect to spend on parts
from Anchor Flag and
Flagpole. Now cost could
vary depending on you height
and the diameter of pipe you
choose, I am assuming here
cost for a 25 ft or shorter
flagpole. a 25' flagpole
will make a fine display and
you can fly more than one
flag. |

You will need to supply
pole. Here is what I use to
use in 1972 to make
flagpoles in my welding
shop. Galvanized Pipe,
bottom pc 10 ft. x 2"
diameter threaded end if you
don't weld. (can be
purchased at any lowes or
home depot in the electrical
isle). |
|
Here is list. You can adjust
sizes to suite your self.
|
-
a 2" pipe it will be 2 &
3/8" outside diameter
threaded,
-
a reducer to 2" to 1 &
1/2"
-
a length of 1 1/2"
threaded pipe it will be
about 2" outside.
-
a reducer to 1 1/2 to 1
1/4"
-
a length of 1 1/4" pipe
threaded, it will be
1& 7/8" outside and our
2" truck top will fit it
just fine.
|
|
The above list will produce
a flagpole with over all
length of 30 ft. If you cut
2' off the top pipe and
burry (concrete) 3 ft
in the ground you will have
a 25 ft. flagpole finished.
|
|
Or you could purchase 1 more
length of 1&1/4" cut it in
half, burry 30" in concrete
in ground leaving both pc.
stick up 30 above ground,
drill matching 1/2" holes 1
" down from top and 3" up
above ground and this
would produce a pivot base
and your flagpole could be
installed so you could raise
it up easily and lie it down
when needed. See pivot
sketch below.2 - 5' long
pipes, 2 - 1/2" bolts 8"
long. drill two holes in
your pipe flagpole. Use
galvanized pipe, No paint No
rust. |
