FORTISVEX 14 Pounds Internal Halyard Flagpole Counterweight 14 Inches White 360315

14 Pound Flagpole Counterweight, 14 Inches, White

The heaviest size, built for tall commercial flagpoles and the larger flags they carry. Two eyebolts on this one are doing real work — a halyard run this long, on a flag this size, needs the extra mass to stay taut in real wind.

What a flagpole counterweight does

On an internal halyard flagpole, the rope or cable that raises and lowers the flag runs down inside the pole itself, out of sight. A counterweight hangs on the bottom of that halyard loop and keeps it under constant tension. Without one, the halyard goes slack, slaps against the inside of the pole in the wind, and tangles at the cleat. With the right weight attached, the line stays taut, the flag lowers smoothly, and the flag itself hangs and flies properly instead of wrapping around the pole.

Will this size fit my flagpole?

This 14 Pound size is built for flagpoles in the 60 to 80 Feet range. Going lighter than your pole calls for leaves the halyard loose; going heavier is rarely a problem and can help in a consistently windy location. If you fly more than one flag, or fly an oversized flag for your pole height, the next size up is worth considering.

Choosing White

White is the standard pairing for a fiberglass pole, which is almost always white or off-white itself, and it also reads as the cleanest option against a white-painted aluminum pole. It is the finish least likely to show scuffing at the base over time.

Fabricated from solid 2 Inch diameter steel and coated in a plastisol finish to resist scratching, chipping and weather, meant to pair with a white or fiberglass flagpole.
