Product Description

The oak flagpole is our most popular wooden indoor flagpole for offices, courtrooms, auditoriums, and parade carry. It is turned from oak and polished to a warm gloss, and it comes in two sections joined by an aluminum screw joint, so it breaks down for transport and storage and sets up in seconds. Eight sizes cover everything from a 6 FT pole for a small office to a 12 FT pole for a stage or lobby. Made in the USA.

An indoor flagpole is the base of any presentation set. Pair this pole with a floor stand, a finial, and a cord and tassel from our hardware and accessories, and it will stand beside a desk or on a stage for decades. Ornament, stand, and cord are sold separately so you can match them to protocol and to the room.

Oak Indoor Flagpole Features

  • Polished oak – a hardwood pole with a clear, high-gloss finish that matches mahogany and oak floor stands.
  • Two-piece screw joint – an aluminum joint with a brass finish threads the two sections together tight, with no wobble.
  • Eight sizes – 6 FT, 7 FT, and 8 FT poles at 1 IN diameter, 7 FT, 8 FT, and 9 FT at 1 1/4 IN, and 9 FT and 12 FT at 1 3/8 IN.
  • Indoor and parade – light enough to carry on parade and formal enough for a courtroom.
  • Standard ferrule – accepts our eagle, spear, and ball finials.
  • Made in the USA – turned and finished in the United States.

Historical Background

Wooden flagstaffs predate metal ones by centuries, and oak has been the American choice for indoor poles because it is strong, straight-grained, and takes a polish. The two-piece jointed pole came in with parades and honor guards, who needed a staff that would fit in a vehicle and assemble on the street. The same design serves government buildings and schools that store flags between events.

The Flag Code places the flag of the United States at the speaker’s right and to the right of other flags, and a matched set of oak poles is how most chambers and auditoriums meet that custom.

Which size indoor flagpole should I buy?

An 8 FT pole with a 3 FT x 5 FT flag suits most offices and stages with a standard 8 FT to 10 FT ceiling. Use a 7 FT pole under a low ceiling and a 9 FT or 12 FT pole for a lobby or auditorium with a 4 FT x 6 FT flag.

What diameter do I need for my floor stand?

Match the stand to the pole. Our Liberty and Commodore stands take 1 IN to 1 1/4 IN poles. A 1 3/8 IN pole needs a stand or insert sized for it.

Does the pole come with a finial or stand?

No. The ornament, floor stand, and cord and tassel are sold separately so you can choose the combination protocol calls for.

Can I get a replacement joint?

Yes. Our brass flagpole joint comes in 1 IN, 1 1/4 IN, and 1 3/8 IN to match each pole.

Is this pole suitable for outdoor use?

It is an indoor and parade pole. For an outdoor pole, see our in-ground and residential flagpoles.
