Quality Ball Bearing Windsock Frame
Quality Ball Bearing Windsock Frame
Our USA manufactured, ball bearing airport windsock frames are a rugged design and constructed of welded steel and then a powder coated finish for corrosion protection. They incorporate a two bearing design for effortless pivoting. These frames are ready to be mounted on a ¾” female pipe thread for the 8", 13", 18" and 24" and a 1" pipe thread for the 36".
Please note: For the larger frames, there may be an extra 'over-sized' shipping cost. This will be calculated upon ordering and we will call you to discuss.
36" frame is not typically held in stock and is available for special order. Call for info, or simply place an order online and we'll send you the details.
Available in (Diameter):
- 8" (20cm)
- 13" (33cm)
- 18" (46cm)
- 20" (51cm)
- 24" (61cm)
- 36" (91cm)
Fitting Instructions:
- Insert (drop) the 1" riser pipe (that comes out of bottom bearing) into a 1-1/4 OD (1-1/8" ID) water pipe at the top of existing pole.
- If you wish, a washer can be put on the riser pipe. Your pole will rest on this washer.
- The nipple of the bearing (where set screw fastens bearing to riser pipe) will rest on your 1-1/4" OD pipe or the washer.
- If your existing pole is a lot larger than the 1-1/4" OD pipe, make sure riser pipe does not rock side to side.
This type of installation in no way affects the function of the bearing.
This type of installation also makes it much easier to take the frame down when replacing the windsock.
