If you’ve ever walked down a main street after a storm and seen sagging, ripped, or completely missing pole banners, you know the “wind problem.” Standard rigid brackets act like a sail, putting immense pressure on your banner and the utility pole itself.
That’s where the Wind-Flex Spring Release Kit (WF-100) from KC Banner comes in. It’s not just a bracket; it’s an insurance policy for your outdoor branding.
Wind-Flex Spring Bracket Kit
The Secret Sauce: 87% Wind Spill
The standout feature of the Wind-Flex system is the 304 Stainless Steel Spring assembly. While traditional brackets fight against the wind, these brackets work with it.
As wind speeds pick up, the spring-loaded base allows the fiberglass rod to cantilever. This unique action spills up to 87% of the wind load.
What does this mean for you?
- Longer Banner Life: Your grommets won’t rip out.
- Pole Protection: Less torque means less risk of damaging expensive light poles.
- Safety: Reduced chance of hardware failure during high-gust events.
Professional-Grade Specs
We didn’t cut corners on the materials. This kit is built for the “set it and forget it” crowd:
- Corrosion Resistance: Features pressure-cast aluminum bases and all-stainless steel hardware (bolts, caps, and washers).
- Heavy Duty Rods: 3/4″ diameter fiberglass rods provide the perfect balance of rigidity and flex.
Versatility You Can Grow With
One of the best things about the WF-100 is its adaptability. It’s a “one size fits all” system for banners up to 27 sq. ft. If you decide to change your banner width next season, you don’t need to replace the whole base—just swap out the rod lengths.
Pro Tip: Looking for a sleeker look? We offer a Black Powder-Coating option (+$16) to help the hardware blend seamlessly into decorative black street lamps.
Is it Worth the Investment?
At a price range of $157.84 – $173.84, the Wind-Flex is a premium solution. However, when you factor in the 10-Year Warranty and the money saved by not replacing shredded banners every season, the kit pays for itself within the first year.
Bulk Savings: Planning a downtown revitalization? Ordering 11 or more kits drops your price to $149.95 per kit.
