Also, if needed, there are replacement sections available if they need to be replaced.
Although this is not the top pick for durability with our flagpoles, this is a top pick for value in that it comes with all of the accessories that you need to fly your American Flag on an in-ground pole.
Best Value In-Ground Commercial Flagpole Kit: Sectional Commercial Aluminum Flagpole Kit
BRAND & MODEL: Eder Flagmakers
Features:
- Kit includes: Nylon US Flag, Flagpole shaft, ground sleeve, cleat, truck with pulley, rope and gold ball top
- Ships via UPS Ground within 1-2 business days
- Can be used for residential or commercial display
- Available in 20' and 25'
- Same pole as the ECSS20 Commercial flagpole except in sections
- 100% Made in the USA
- Lifetime warranty on the shaft
Why it won
This flagpole was designed for its ability to ship a commercial flagpole via UPS vs a freight truck. We took a commercial flagpole (model ECSS20), which is normally a one piece pole, and made it sectional to be able to ship to your home or business via UPS. It saves a lot on freight charges and also ships much faster than a freight delivery.
The flagpole kit comes with everything that you need to install this flagpole. The kit includes: Nylon American flag with sewn stripes and embroidered stars, PVC Ground sleeve, flash collar, flagpole shaft, cleat, truck with pulley, gold ball top and rope. The installation is pretty straightforward and easy to complete. It comes in 20' and 25' heights and is available in different colors: Satin (silver), bronze (dark brown) or black.
Once assembled the flagpole is as durable as the one piece commercial flagpole ECSS20. This pole is rated to withstand 85 MPH winds with the flag and 118 MPH winds without the flag on it. Two flags can be flown on this pole, but the hardware that comes with the pole is only for one flag display. You will need an additional set of snaphooks to display a second flag.
This is one of our top choices for a durable flagpole and is recommended for any location whether it's at a home or business. This comes in multiple colors and sizes and ships within a timely manner so you can install your flagpole quickly.

Why it won
If you're planning on placing your American flag in an open location that doesn't receive a large amount of attention, or you simply want to add more blind to the look of your American flag, you have the option to purchase a spinning flag pole to install your American flag on. More specifically, spinning flag poles have the ability to spin your flag with the wind in whatever direction it chooses to go. These sinning flag poles are not only able to make your American flag look more attractive and bring more attention to it, but they are also able to protect your flag from getting tangled or warping along with the wind.
Furthermore, the top 36" of the pole rotates on ball bearings which allows your flag to rotate with the wind, which prevents wrapping around the pole. When you purchase this spinning pole for your American flag, you aren't required to purchase any snaps, and it's recommended for Nylon flags only and for flags that measure between 2.5 feet by 4 feet or flags that measure 3 feet by 5 feet. The 6' is recommended for 3 x 5' flag and the 5' is recommended for the 2.5 x 4' flags.
