Super Tough USA-Made 25ft Heavy Duty Flag Pole for Outside House - Black Anodized - Residential In-Ground Flagpole - 4-Section High-Grade Aluminum - Includes All Accessories

Made well and easy to install. Looks great too!

I have always wanted my own flagpole and after many years it has finally become reality. I did a ton of research on aluminum, fiberglass, telescopic and sectional. Considering quality, price, shipping and timeline… I went with this Super Tough Commercial Grade Sectional 25 ft. Flagpole in Black - US Made. I wanted to raise and lower the flag the traditional way, so telescopic was out. From a quality standpoint, Fiberglass is probably the best for the Pacific Northwest, but shipping time is expensive and long, plus the cost was significantly more. This pole in black looks fantastic, arrived in a few days and was fairly easy to install. It would be nice if you had the options for the ball. Polished brass isn’t my thing, so I ordered the Eder flagpole 3” ball in an aluminum satin finish. It would also be nice if it included the base flash collar, but doesn’t, so I ordered the US Flagstore 3” base collar in a 12” diameter satin finish. Everything arrived in perfect condition. 1 section of the flagpole had significant burrs, but was easy to file smooth. My Install: I think the directions are lacking/vague, so I watched a couple YouTube videos and made some assumptions. Also, the OnlineStores.com has some decent instructions for flagpoles that can be printed. I used the advice from another review and went with an 18” x 18” concrete square base using approximately (10) 60 lbs. bags of concrete (easier to lift compared to 80 lbs. bags) and (1) bag of play sand. 1) Dug a hole approximately 18” diameter and 30” deep 2) Framed 18”x18” base with 2x4’s 3) Added a couple inches of play sand in the bottom of hole and compacted 4) Centered my 4” sleeve (taped the top to keep debris out) in center of hole with 1 3/4” to 2” above grade 5) Mixed 1 bag at a time and centered/leveled the sleeve after each bag of concrete 6) Finished off 18”x18” square with a trowel and a 1/4 round edger. Light brush finish 7) I used chairs instead of saw horses to support the flagpole 8) Removed burrs with a file and connected the four sections 9) Added the truck to the top and then a solar light (purchased separately) and finally the ball 10) Added the base collar from the bottom and ran it up past the cleat location 11) Added the cleat with screws included and just tightened loosely. 12) Ran the rope through the truck and tied two ends together with a figure 8 13) Removed the bottom section of flagpole and inserted it into sleeve (remove tape). Centered and added play sand leaving an inch or two at top of sleeve. Critical to make sure this first section is perfectly level 14) Using a ladder and a little help, raised the remaining (3) sections and inserted into bottom section 15) Removed cleat, lowered flashing, replaced cleat 16) Added loop snaps with the two rope ends that were tied centered and spaced in between for a 3’x6’ Annin flag. Rope knot is approximately center of the two flag brass eyeholes 17) Using clear silicone caulking, caulked the top couple of inches of sleeve and flashing so it’s watertight Raised flag and done! So far, so good with standing up to daily winds. Tools/supplies: Shovel and or hoe, concrete mixing trough, 18” up to 48” level, flat trowel, edger, hammer, saw, nails/screws, metal file, Phillips screwdriver, ladder, (10-12) bags of 60 lbs Redi Mix concrete, (1) bag of play sand, (1) tube of clear silicone, (1) 8’ 2x4, (1) 4x6 USA flag, 3” hole x12” diameter base flashing, solar or wired flag light.

My wife and I just put this flag pole up. We bought the 25' brushed aluminum model. I had dug the hole and put the plastic tube in last week. We put it together using saw horses. It all slipped together without problem, nothing needed for lubrication. We were able to put it up together with little problem other than my wife being 4'11"! I highly recommend this flag pole. It is excellent quality, and looks great. Two suggestions: first, be careful of - have more than enough concrete. I dug an 18" hole 3.5' deep, and this took 6 80lb bags of premixed cement - 480lbs total. Second, when leveling the pole look at it from a distance before finalizing it. Make sure it matches a vertical part of your home - a corner or door trim - and is still level. That will make it look much better. If this is not possible, go with leveling the pole without regard how it looks next to your house.

The rope broke on the first day of flying. I reached out to the company to simply replace the rope, and they refuse. They told me I had to deal directly with Amazon. It was not their issue. Buyer beware bad product bad customer service.

Im 24 years old and i bought my house about a year and a half ago. The one thing i wanted to do since i purchased my beautiful home sitting on my 10 acres was to install a flagpole. When i began my search about 6 months ago, i wanted to find a pole that fit me and my setting the best. I looked at many different companies and brands of poles. After my long and stressful search, i decided to purchase this pole. It had many good reviews to start,also the quality is very good in my opinion. I wanted something very strong, due to the high winds i receive here, i believe this pole will hold up very nicely! I dug my hole exactly the same depth as the length of the included sleeve. I also built a small form, i didn't want that big of a piece of concrete in my lawn so i went with a nice square 18''x18''. I pour concrete for a living so when i came to pouring the concrete it was no big task. I actually ordered the concrete my our local redi mix plant which is delivered by a concrete truck. All said and done i used about a yard and a half of concrete, which is probably equivalent to 20 or so bags of Menards concrete. The sand used in between the sleeve and the pole itself i bought from Menards, the sleeve only took about a 1/4 of the bag. I also recommend buying a flashing to sit around the bottom of the pole to finish it off nicely. One was not included in my kit. Then i topped it off with a nice quality 4x6 flag from Annin Flagmakers, its there 2720 Model. The 4x6 flag really fit the pole nicely. Im extremely happy with how it all turned out, this pole should definitely last for years, so proud to be flying the flag!!! I will also be adding to this review after 6 months and a full year to give more feedback.

I wanted a sturdy 25 foot flag pole for my windy location and this one has 11 gauge sidewalls. the top most section tapers to one and 7/8 inches. The 24" sleeve for the base is a standard 3 inch irrigation pipe. I assembled it on the ground and three sturdy friends stood it up in the fight base. I chose to make the hole about 2 1/2 feet deep and 2 feet wide and used 500 pounds of concrete. It wiggles a bit in the wind but it's not going anywhere. I put the 5 x 8 flag on it versus a 4 x 6 but it looks appropriately sized given its 23 foot rise above the ground. Long may she wave!

These are decent quality for what you are buying, the sections have a bit of movement once slide together, but they don’t come with the collar for the bottom.
