Windsock Company Companys
Windsock Company Companys are conical fabric tubes that indicate wind direction and provide a visual estimate of wind speed. They are essential for aviation, maritime, and industrial sites requiring real-time wind data. Our windsocks are crafted from durable polyester or nylon with UV-resistant coatings, ensuring longevity in extreme conditions. Available in standard sizes from 2ft to 12ft, they meet international standards like CAA CAP 168 and ICAO Annex 14.
Windsock Company Masts
Windsock Company masts are robust support structures designed for secure windsock installation. Constructed from galvanised steel, aluminium, or stainless steel, they withstand harsh environments including offshore platforms and chemical plants. Masts range from 6m to 16m in height, with options for ground, wall, or deck mounting. They comply with ATEX standards for hazardous zones and feature pivot systems for easy maintenance.
Swivel Systems
Swivel systems ensure windsocks rotate freely to align with wind direction. Our marine-grade stainless steel swivel arms and frames are engineered for durability in coastal and industrial settings. The external-fit models suit standard tube sizes, while internal-fit variants integrate with aluminium masts. Both types include sealed bearings and adjustable mounting options for secure, low-maintenance operation.
Custom Windsock Company Companys
Custom windsocks cater to specific client requirements, including non-standard sizes, colours, and materials. Options include striped designs, uncoated fabrics, and fibreglass-reinforced mouth rings for airport use. We also offer anti-flutter netting and digital printing for branding. These bespoke solutions adhere to COMAH regulations and ATEX directives for hazardous environments.
Product Data Sheets
Product data sheets provide detailed specifications for windsocks, masts, and swivel systems. They include dimensions, material properties, compliance certifications, and installation instructions. These resources support informed decision-making for engineers and procurement teams. Available for download on our website, they cover standard and custom product lines.

Report
I purchased on behalf of Bolt Head Flying Club a Windsock Swivel - We are delighted with the super quality of this swivel and being made of super grade materials ( 316 stainless) are certain that it will last us many years - Windsock Company handled my order very efficiently and the product arrived very quickly-

Report
Usually we go through windsocks all the time as our CAA Licensed Aerodrome is in a rather exposed position. The last two windsocks have lasted longer than any other by a factor of at least two. The recent storms finally killed a two year old one and the replacement we ordered from the company appeared within 48 hours and is extremely well built. We're not going anywhere else for windsocks in future.
