It clamps securely to round rails measuring 7\/8 inch to 1 inch in diameter and holds a 1 inch diameter flag staff, mounting perpendicular to the rail so the pole stands out from the boat. The socket is machined from T304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in a marine environment and is made in the USA. Installation is straightforward: the mount fastens directly to the rail with no drilling into the boat's deck or hull required, making it a simple add-on for boats that already have rail tubing in the right diameter range. Once mounted, the socket holds the flag staff at a fixed angle for a clean, secure look while underway or at anchor. This is sold as a single flag pole socket (one unit), so boaters mounting flags on both port and starboard rails, or wanting a spare, should order accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taylor Made Products\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 960\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flag Pole Socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e T304 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rail mount, perpendicular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRail Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7\/8 inch to 1 inch round rails\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlag Pole Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 inch diameter flag staff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 inches x 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.62 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 040011941060\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Components:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flag pole socket (1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size rail does this flag pole socket fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Taylor Made Products flag pole socket (part number 960) mounts to round rails measuring 7\/8 inch to 1 inch in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size flag pole does it hold?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made for a 1 inch diameter flag staff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the socket made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made from T304 stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion in marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the flag pole socket mount to the rail?\u003c\/strong\u003e It mounts perpendicular to the rail, clamping directly onto the tubing, so the flag pole stands out to the side rather than straight up from a deck base.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need to drill any holes to install this?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the socket fastens directly around the rail rather than requiring holes drilled into the deck or hull.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this made in the USA?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Taylor Made Products flag pole socket, part 960, is made in the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many sockets come in the package?\u003c\/strong\u003e One flag pole socket is included per package; boats mounting flags on more than one rail location need to order multiple units.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is the flag pole socket?\u003c\/strong\u003e It has a silver finish, consistent with its stainless steel construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the dimensions of the mount?\u003c\/strong\u003e The flag pole socket measures 6 inches by 4 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs there a version for larger diameter rails?\u003c\/strong\u003e Part number 960 is sized for 7\/8 inch to 1 inch rails; boats with larger rail tubing in the 1-1\/8 inch to 1-1\/4 inch range need a different, separate part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this flag pole socket rust or corrode?\u003c\/strong\u003e Because it is built from T304 stainless steel, part 960 is designed to resist rust and corrosion in a saltwater or freshwater marine setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this be used for anything other than a flag pole?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Taylor Made Products socket, part 960, is designed specifically to hold a 1 inch diameter flag staff mounted to a rail.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor Made Products","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48989679517915,"sku":"NAT-960","price":45.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/nat-960_large__58008.1558175673.500.750.jpg?v=1785189031","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/taylor-made-products-960-rail-mount-flag-pole-socket-t304-stainless-steel-for-7-8-to-1-round-rails-1-flag-staff","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
