The length of the flag should be at least 1/4 the
height of the pole. For example, a 40' pole requires
a 6 x 10' flag or larger. This guideline applies to
poles 20' and larger. Most residential flags are 3
x 5' or 4 x 6'. The size of the pole is the determining
factor.
Pole Type
Commercial Grade
- Flag Length should equal 1/4 pole height.

should equal 1/2 pole height.
Outrigger - Poles to 16',
use 3' x 5'; 20' poles use 4' x 6'.
