Sizes

Our standard stock range of C type fitting windsocks are shown on page 3 and highlighted in orange. All other sizes and variations not highlighted and shown on pages 3 to 6 are made to order. Due to the requirements of global sourcing we manufacture windsocks in both imperial and metric dimensions - reflected in the many sizes shown on the following pages.

Fit t ings & Fixings

Our C t ype fitt ing comes complete with a harness and shackle. It consists of a stainless steel ring sewn into the mouth of the windsock. Four brass eyelets are used to attach a four way flexible stainless steel wire harness. Attached to the end of the harness is a stainless steel swivel shackle as shown in the pictures on the right. The swivel shackle is the most secure way of attaching a windsock to the rotating arm system at the top of your windsock mast.

The C type fitting is suitable for onshore, coastal and offshore applications where the equipment is being regularly exposed to harsh conditions.

Mat er ial

Our standard windsocks are made in durable polyester with polyurethane coating, total weight of 200 gsm tested to ISO 105 (4), EN 471 and EN 343.

Colour

Our standard windsocks are high visibility, fluorescent orange. Other colours are available - refer to page 2.

Var iat ions and Addit ions

Windsock Company serves a global market and this means we have to supply a wide range of variations to our standard product range.

Customer requirements are often compiled from North American specifications, competitor websites and buying details from purchasing archives that go back long into the past.

Many years ago windsocks were mainly manufactured from Nylon and many still are in the USA. However, polyest er is the optimum material for windsocks due to its ability to absorb more of the bright orange dye and so have a greater resistance to fading. Almost all UK commercially available materials suitable for this application are polyester.

Our standard range of windsock sizes will satisfy most requirements but in order to accommodate variations in specification or additions ( for example printing) we will manufacture to specific requirements using a range of techniques, commercially available materials and fitting types.

Var iat ions

Mat er ialMade to order windsocks using materials other than our standard type (detailed on page 1) are available, subject to the requirement, by quotation. The alternative materials are:

Polyester, polyurethane coated, flame retardant, 240 gsm.Polyester, uncoated, 172 gsmPolyester, anti static grid, 236 gsm (picture right)Nylon, polyurethane coated, 4 ozPolyester, knitted, 115 gsm

ColourWe manufacture, to order, windsocks in colours other than fluorescent orange. Typically in red and white or orange and white stripes but also in plain colours such as International Orange, red, yellow, green and blue.
