Teardrop Flag Poles, Stands, and Bases

The pole is what makes a teardrop flag a teardrop. Here you will find the flexible teardrop flag pole set in four sizes, plus the cross base, square base, ground stake, water bag, and carry bag that fit our custom teardrop flags. Replace a damaged pole, add a stand for indoor events, or build a complete spare kit.

Overview

What Makes a Teardrop Flag Pole Different?

A teardrop pole is designed to bend. Aluminum sections form a sturdy lower spine, and a flexible fiberglass top arcs over and down. When the flag's bottom cord is hooked, the pole holds a curve that keeps the fabric stretched into the teardrop shape. A straight feather or rectangle pole cannot do this, which is why teardrop flags need their own pole set.

Built to Flex

The fiberglass top holds the teardrop curve and gives in a gust instead of breaking.

Weather Resistant

Aluminum and fiberglass are made for outdoor use and keep the flag taut and readable.

Pole Bag Included

Each teardrop flag pole set comes with a complimentary nylon bag for carrying and storage.

How It Works

How to Assemble a Teardrop Flag Pole

Connect the pole sections in order, finishing with the flexible fiberglass top. Slide the flag's pole sleeve over the pole from the top down.

Next, bend the top of the pole and hook the cord at the bottom of the flag to lock in the teardrop curve. Set the pole on your stake or base, and add a water bag if the base is on pavement outdoors. No tools are needed at any step.

  • ✓ Join pole sections by hand
  • ✓ Slide on the flag sleeve
  • ✓ Hook the cord to set the curve
  • ✓ Mount on stake or base
  • ✓ Add weight outdoors

Indoor and Outdoor

One Teardrop Flag, Any Venue

Teardrop flags are popular at trade shows because they stay open without wind. With the right hardware, the same flag can work the convention floor on Friday and the outdoor festival on Saturday.

Use the cross base indoors, switch to the ground stake on grass, and carry everything in one bag. If you need more teardrop flags for your booth, see our custom teardrop flags.
