Designed for frequent outdoor use, Heavy Duty Poles offer increased wall thickness for greater durability. A swiveling eyelet ensures that wind spinners and windsocks swing freely in changing winds. Please note that the pole does not include a ground stake. The pole can be used with item #23922 5/8 in. Steel Ground Mount (sold separately) or for more extreme conditions, we recommend buying a 1 to 1-1/2 in. pipe that is at least 48 in. long from your local hardware store. Wrap the top edge of the pipe with duct tape so it doesn't cut the inside wall of the windsock pole.
