Whitecap Top-Mounted Flag Pole Socket - Polished Brass - 1-1/4" ID

The Whitecap Top-Mounted Flag Pole Socket in polished brass is a marine-grade hardware solution designed for vessels, docks, and outdoor installations requiring secure flag display. This 1-1/4" ID socket accommodates standard flag poles and serves as the foundation for professional-quality flag mounting systems. Built for long-term durability in saltwater and freshwater environments, it's essential hardware for boat owners, marinas, and facilities that demand corrosion-resistant flagpole hardware.

Constructed from polished brass, this top-mounted socket offers superior corrosion resistance compared to steel alternatives, making it ideal for maritime applications where salt spray and moisture exposure are constant concerns. The 2-3/4" base provides a wide footprint for stability, while the 2-1/8" height ensures proper clearance and vertical alignment. Three #6 fasteners (included) secure the socket firmly to deck or rail surfaces, distributing load evenly and preventing movement or loosening over time. The polished finish maintains aesthetic appeal while the brass material naturally resists oxidation and requires minimal maintenance.

This socket is ideal for recreational boaters, commercial vessels, waterfront properties, and institutional facilities displaying flags year-round. The 1-1/4" internal diameter accommodates standard flag poles ranging from 1" to 1-1/4" in diameter, making it compatible with most residential and commercial flagpole systems. Installation is straightforward: position the base on your mounting surface, align the socket opening, and secure using the provided #6 fasteners into pre-drilled or new holes. For maximum longevity in harsh marine environments, periodic cleaning with freshwater helps preserve the polished brass finish and ensures smooth flagpole insertion and removal.
