Use And Care Manual

Aluminum Flagpole Maintenance

Poles

Aluminum poles will have an anodized finish and require little or no maintenance. Rainfall in

most areas will remove the dirt and soil that may be deposited on surface. However, should a

build-up of dirt and soil occur, washing the surface with a mild detergent is advised.

Halyard Rope

External halyards (ropes) should be checked every three months or so for signs of wear and

need for replacement. When replacement becomes necessary, synthetic ropes such as braided

polypropylene and nylon are the best materials to consider. These materials are far superior to

other styles because of their strength, mildew resistance and exceptional wearing qualities.

Fittings

Please check your flag clips periodically for wear or damage. Truck assemblies and other items

such as finials, cleats do not require attention under normal circumstances.
