Square-Pole Adapter
® Please see our revolutionary “Airow” bracket in the action video under “Resources” on BannerFlex.com.
Square Pole Adapters, also known as Adapter Shims, are used on the back of the D3 and Metro Main Castings to �it odd-shaped �luted poles or allow more banding tension on �lat-faced square poles where the faces of the poles are 5” or larger in width. They are manufactured to �it our hardware cross-sections and are available individually or ordered already attached to our BannerFlex hardware. If a system is to be bolted to a square utility pole the Square Pole Adapter is not needed.
The illustrations here show the Square Pole Adapters in place behind the BannerFlex D3 Main Casting. You can see that this Adapter or shim pulls the Main Casting out and away from the square light pole and allows the banding to put more tension or strength to secure the Main Casting more �irmly. With a square light pole, the wider the face the less tension is put onto a “banded” system. Without the Adapter, the Main casting will tend to slide or move a bit due to less tension provided by the banding. We have determined that for a �lat face of 5” or more, a Square Pole Adapter should be used.
