Review on Aluminum Alloy Flag Pole Rings With Carabiner & Chain - 360 Degree Tangle Free Mounting Clips For 1 Inch Flag Pole, NQ Flag Pole Rotating Rings In Black (Set Of 2) by Daniel Icyblue

Better than zip ties!

We use these flag pole rotating rings to hang our multiple political flags on our boat. Since we don’t have room for too many individual flag poles we attached 2 flags to each of our boat antennas with zip ties. The problem with this is idea is that the flags do not spin freely, I was able to attach these on the existing antennas and the flags fly pretty well. I noticed one of the flag spinners occasionally one gets hung up and doesn’t spin quite so freely but it’s very easy to untwist it, for the most part they work excellent. This set of rotating rings only came with one length of short screws to the adjust and attach to the pole. I did purchase one other set that came with 2 sets of screws, one set of screws being longer so that if your pole or antenna was skinny the screw head could attach easier to a skinnier pole. These spinners also come with an Allen wrench to self tighten the hexagon style screw inserted in the middle of the rotating ring. The spinners also come with an additional ring and then flag clip fasteners which is a little different from the other set that I bought. They say this is to help it spin easier, I’m not sure if it does or doesn’t. We fly our flags in the Pinellas county FL with in the Intercoastal waterways and Gulf of Mexico, so they are subject to salt water conditions. I will update as to the longevity of the spinners since we only fly the flags in moderately to light winds on the weekends when we use our boat. So far they work much better than zip ties and allow the boats flags to fly without tangling. We have had plastic spinners that do not survive the FL sun so stainless is the way to go. I will update my review if the rotating rings fail to meet expectations.UPDATE: Working great out at sea for 6 months.
