Friday, March 14, 2014
Flag have cleats to support a flag. A support is needed because a flag is an important item for a group of people or a company. Flags are raised or flown as a way for people in the early era to relay a message. Of course, unlike today, we have mobile phones as a means to communicate or send a message. But during the war in the early civilization, troops raise a flag in order to relay a message to someone or another group who is from a far distance that a flag can still be seen, whether to signal attack or surrender. Messages vary depending on the flag design or color. Or the kings and queens when they traveled with their escorts, someone was assigned to carry flags to show their identity.
A flagpole cleat is added to a flagpole in order to attach the flag securely to it. A flag has a rope attached to take hold of the flag especially by storm wind. Flag cleat is device that can be made of wood or aluminum steel having hornlike thorns in opposing direction where the flag rope is being tied around it.
Since flagpoles are installed at different types of surfaces. It is important to have a flag protected and securely in place especially if a flagpole is attached to a building, a house or to an outdoor wall. The cleats can also make the flag set look well-kept because the rope will not go to different directions especially when properly knotted to the cleats.
