this one is something like 1.5 inches alum. Good price for the whole kit

Stole mine from a completed subdivision that was used for advertisement. It is 2" aluminum and is in 4 6' sections so 24' tall. Actually I did get permission from the realtor prior to the pilferage.

Picked mine up from a vendor at a NA$CAR race. But I also have a pair of these that work great!

I have that flag pole you are looking at.Works great but with my heavier nascar flag i had to put some pins threw the tube to keep from sliding down. Yes it does tighten but slides with out pins.lighter flags no problem.Works great for me.

I got mine at Home Depot. I use 3/4" PVC which is sold as water pipe. I use a 10 foot section which flies a 3'x5' flag with ease. I made a mount for my ladder so the total height is about 20 feet.
