Reinforced Stitching
Reinforced fly end construction helps extend the life of the flag in real-world conditions. A double-fold hem with four rows of lock-stitched seams reduces fraying and unraveling at the edges that take the most wear.
Construction
Reinforced Canvas Header
A canvas header adds strength and stability by reinforcing the edge that bears the most stress. It helps the flag hold its shape, prevents tearing around the grommets, and ensures a secure, long-lasting attachment to the flagpole.
FMAA Certified
Made in the USA
FMAA-certified flags carry a serialized "Certified Made in U.S.A." seal that verifies U.S. materials and manufacturing. This ensures you're getting an authentic, domestically produced flag built to the highest standards.
Solid Brass
Solid Brass Grommets
2 solid brass flag grommets with tooth washers provide a strong, secure attachment point that helps prevent tearing at the hoist edge. Built to withstand repeated movement and wind stress, they allow the flag to fly freely while reducing fabric wear.
