Taylor Made Flag Pole Socket, Top Mount, 10 Degree Angle, Fits 1 to 1-1/4 Inch Poles - 966

The Taylor Made 966 is a top-mount flag pole socket built to hold flag poles measuring 1 inch to 1-1/4 inch in diameter. It is machined from T316 polished stainless steel, a marine-grade alloy chosen for its resistance to saltwater corrosion and its long-term finish retention, so the socket keeps its polished appearance through repeated seasons of sun and spray. The socket is set at a 10 degree angle and insets nearly flush to the deck once installed, giving a clean, low-profile mount rather than a socket that stands proud of the surface.

Installation is to the gunwale, deck, or a similar flat mounting surface on a boat or pontoon; mounting hardware is not included, so self-tapping screws or bolts sized for the mounting holes will need to be sourced separately. The 966 is intended for boaters who want a permanent, purpose-built place to fly a flag rather than relying on a clamp-on or temporary holder. Because it accepts the common 1 inch to 1-1/4 inch pole range, it works with most standard boat flag poles sold in that size.
