Fire Truck/Emergency vehicle Flag Mounts
The History behind the x50 Flag Mount
X50 Flag Mounts was born out of one our country’s darkest hours: September 11th. After that horrific tragedy there was a sweeping sense of Patriotism across our nation. You would see flags everywhere and on everyone’s cars. As quickly as they came they left, mainly because the flags didn’t last long and the loud flapping made it really annoying to drive with. At the time our founder was a truck driver and he too put a flag on his truck. After one day’s worth of driving (roughly 500 miles) the flag was absolutely shredded. “This is going to get expensive” he thought to himself. A few days later as he drove down the road he held a flag in his hand out the window. As it flapped hard he thought of how he could make the flags last longer, when he moved his hand from the clean airflow to behind the mirror. Instantly the flag stopped waving. From there, the X50 Flag Mount was born.
How the X50 wings work
With our patented design the X50 Flag Mount has one goal: to make your flags last longer even at high speeds. Thomas Edison’s light bulb idea took 10,000 attempts for him to get it right, we had a similar experience in the development of our flag mounts. The unique combination of the “winged” design along with the air regulation slots took countless revisions to get it right. We greatly value innovation and are constantly looking for ways to make our products better. See how the wings work in the video and diagram below.
HOW THE FLAG MOUNT INCREASES THE LIFE OF YOUR FLAGS
- The Wings deflect air around the flag, thus preventing and prolonging flag life by reducing the whip of the flag.
- The slots regulate air flow to the flag, providing just enough air to ensure the flag flies perfectly at all speeds.
BY CONTROLLING THE AIRFLOW AROUND THE FLAG YOU WILL SEE TWO GREAT BENEFITS:
- Your flags will last 30,000 miles (or more) in clean airflow at highway speeds. If not in direct airflow they could last upwards of 50,000+ miles on OTR trucks & cars and possibly even longer on motorcycles (some customers reporting getting well over 100k miles out of their flags on their motorcycles)
- The flags will fly quietly as if they were not even there with no loud flapping sounds
X50 Flag Mounts are the only flag mounts designed to be flown on any vehicle at highway speeds. Other flag mounts may say they are “parade flags” and actually have a warning that you cannot drive over 45MPH or the flag will shred or break off. Don’t be limited by your flags!
