Product Overview
The main pole is heavy schedule steel pipe supplied in two pieces so it can be shipped and handled on site, then joined during erection. A perforated wing panel runs up the pole to give umpires and spectators a clear visual reference on fair and foul calls while letting wind pass through instead of loading the pole like a solid sail.
Corrosion protection is a two step process: a zinc rich primer goes on first, followed by a tough powder coated yellow topcoat that stays visible against sky and outfield backdrops for years without repainting.
The pole is engineered for high wind exposure, and the drawing shows a typical concrete footing for average soil conditions. Rebar is supplied by others and local building codes should be consulted before pouring. For semi-permanent installation, a ground sleeve with anti-rotation hardware lets the pole be removed for field work or off-season storage.
