Counterweights

Counterweights are required in Internal Halyard Systems to assist in the lowering of flags. They also ensure the flag hangs and flies properly in winds by keeping the flag taught. Three sizes allow the proper choice of counterweight based on wind zone and flag size flown. Determine the size and color needed then select the brand.

Concord American Flagpole
The Industry’s Only Patented Counterweight - Patent #D594,380
Constructed of steel covered in a thick plastic coating, Concord American Flagpole’s patented Counterweights are designed with heavy-duty, horizontal attaching bars. This design more efficiently distributes the stress load when compared to industry standard round-eye ends which concentrate the load in a single location. Dual attachment points in all sizes also provide a significantly increased safety level when compared to single attachment designs. This is the longest lasting, safest Counterweight the industry has to offer!

Eder Flag Mfg
Fabricated from 2" diameter steel and then coated with plastisol. The 3-1/2" pound weights are supplied with one eye-bolt attached to one end while the 7 pound and 14 pound weights are supplied with an eye-bolt attached to each end.

Safety Note:
The Retainer Ring and Rope Assembly or Flag Arrangement should never be attached to the same end of the Counterweight.
