Internal Halyard Flagpoles
Published April 2, 2025 · Recall initiated: January 20, 2004
What's the hazard
A partially crimped sleeve on these flagpoles can allow the cable to pull through the sleeve, causing the loop to release. When the assembly is raised with no flag attached, it can allow a seven pound counter weight to drop to the ground, possibly hitting people nearby.
What to do
Hapco is directly notifying consumers who purchased these flagpoles about the recall and providing free repair kits.
