Rectangle Flag Poles and Heavy-Duty Bases

Rectangle flags hang flat from a top crossbar, so they need a straight, stiff pole and a solid base. This collection has the all-aluminum rectangle flag pole set in three sizes, plus the square base, cross base, ground stake, and water bag that fit our custom rectangle flags.

Overview

How Rectangle Flag Hardware Differs

Feather and teardrop flags rely on a flexible fiberglass top to make their curves. A rectangle flag does the opposite: it needs to stay straight and square. That is why our rectangle flag pole set is made from aluminum throughout, with a crossbar across the top that holds the fabric open like a flat vertical banner.

All-Aluminum Pole

High-quality aluminum gives the strength and stability a flat flag needs outdoors.

Holds the Flag Square

The top crossbar keeps the fabric spread wide so text and photos stay readable.

Pole Bag Included

Every rectangle flag pole set comes with a complimentary nylon bag for transport and storage.

Square Base

Why the Square Base Suits Rectangle Flags

A flat rectangle flag presents a full face to the wind, so it benefits from a solid footing. Our square base is a heavyweight iron plate with a powder-coated finish that resists rust, built for hard surfaces indoors and out.

For car dealerships and storefronts where the same flag stands at the curb every day, the square base is the set-and-forget option. Add a water bag over it on especially windy days.

Replacement Poles

Replace a Rectangle Flag Pole Without Reprinting

If a pole section is bent or missing, your printed flag is still good. Order a new rectangle flag pole set in your size, slide the flag on, and it is ready to go again.

A spare pole set also lets you fly a second rectangle flag at the same time, or keep a backup at a second location. Bases are shared with our feather flag hardware and teardrop flags, so you may already own one.

  • ✓ Reuse your printed flag
  • ✓ Three sizes to match
  • ✓ All-aluminum construction

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about rectangle flag poles and bases.

What is a rectangle flag pole made of?

Our rectangle flag pole set is made of aluminum, with a top crossbar that holds the flag flat.

How much is a rectangle flag pole?

$68.99 for Small, $79.99 for Medium, and $89.99 for Large, with a nylon pole bag included.

Which pole size do I need for my rectangle flag?

Small fits the 8.5 ft flag, Medium fits 11.8 ft, and Large fits 15 ft.

Can I use a feather flag pole for a rectangle flag?

No. A feather pole is curved at the top, while a rectangle flag needs the straight aluminum pole with a crossbar.

What is the best base for a rectangle flag?

For a permanent spot on pavement, the square base. For events, a cross base with a water bag. On grass, the ground stake.

Do rectangle flags need a water bag?

Outdoors on a cross base, we recommend one. The water bag adds weight over the base and empties for transport.

Do the bases fit other flag shapes too?

Yes. The square base, cross base, and ground stake are listed for feather, teardrop, and rectangle flags. See all flag hardware.

Is a rectangle flag holder the same as a base?

People use both terms. On our site, the holder is the base or stake the pole sits on: square base, cross base, or ground stake.

Can I order a new rectangle flag with a pole?

Yes. Our premium custom rectangle flag includes a pole set, starting at $280.
