Single Hoop Frame for Heavy Duty Windsocks Description and Features

It has never been easier to buy your windsocks and supporting windsock hardware and frames online. Heavy duty windsock frames are available in 6 sizes and correspond perfectly with the windsocks we sell.

Our newly re-designed single hoop windsocks frames are manufactured from ¼” cold rolled steel and are made to be very durable and long-lasting. To install, simply take your ¾ NPT (for frame size 18"x24" and 36" or ½ NPT (for frame sizes 6", 10", 13") collar or female threaded pipe looking up and screw the extension rod into the awaiting threads.  These frames were recently re-designed to make the ring attachment arms one piece, both top, and bottom. This allows us for a very strong weld on top and overall creating the strongest frame on the market. 

The Custom Windsock Co only offers single hoop frames online. However if you contact us, we are able to provide an 18" extended hoop frame via manual payment. 

Types of Windsock Frames Available in the Market

There are two main types of frames available on the market. The type of frame you own or purchase will affect the type of windsock that will fit. 

Single Hoop Frame - This frame is the type sold at the Custom Windsock Company. It only has the one hoop attached to a base that allows for 360 degree movement.  This is a versatile frame as it allows any type of windsock with the correct hoop and sock diameter to fit. One drawback is that it does not keep a portion of the mouth open to allow for easy wind flow.

Double Hoop Frame (Extended Frame) - This frame has two hoops, one smaller and one larger that are attached to one another by a minimum of four welded spokes. This extended frame is attached to a base that has 360 degree movement. One advantage of this frame is that it permanently keeps the first 18"-24" of the windsock open which allows for wind to easily catch and flow through the windsock. 

Some drawbacks of this frame are that

  • It is difficult to source
  • It is expensive
  • Sizing a windsock for this type of frame is difficult - you may be stuck with buying windsocks exclusively from the supplier of the frame - this limits your choice and options for windsocks in the future

Windsocks are made differently for single hoop frames than they are for double hoop frames. Its important to make sure you inform the manufacturer of your custom windsock or the supplier of your standard windsock, that you have a double hoop frame.

If you do not inform the supplier of your frame, your windsock will not stretch enough over the first hoop to make it to the second hoop when it is installed.
